Which way would death become you?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker 2 years ago

Not to be morbid, someone recently pointed out the ironies of some famous people's deaths. For example, Edgar Allen Poe's death was wrapped in mystery when he died after having been found unconscious in the street -- dressed in clothes that were not his! Nobody has ever figured out just what happened. What better way for a mystery writer to go? When the great poet Percy Bysse Shelley died, he was cremated. Nobody was sure why his heart was so calcified that it would not burn! His wife kept it in her desk while she was writing Frankenstein! Irony abounds. I could go on and on, with many more such suitable deaths.
When your time comes, what sort of death would become you? How would it suit your particular persona???

I like my sleep, so I just want to go quietly in my sleep please. But afterward, I want a lot of funny things to happen so that the people I leave behind have something to laugh at.

Hm, maybe I'll start planting joke things NOW! :-)


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

LOVE it! I, too, would love to leave 'em laughing!

Oh...uh...well, something quick and easy...instantaneous, I don't wanna suffer...embolism pop just as I hit "post response" on a real sarcastic post about death would be about right...

But my luck, it'll be something slow and painful...like some of my discussions...lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

How about lively and astute - like your discussions?

very lively and loud

oh wait, did I wander into the wrong topic?

I'll probably be killed by some idiot who's just not paying attention to what they're doing. Maybe it'll be a car accident, or maybe someone in my apartment building will leave something on the stove and the building will burn down with me in it. The other great possibility is that I'll be killed by some random, unpredictable act of fate, like a tree falling over on me as I walk down the street. So far I've had the kind of life where most of the bad things that happen to me are either the result of someone else being careless, or it's the result of something that nobody, including me, has any control over. So my death will probably follow the same pattern.


myLot reputation of 93/100. thyst07 (1295)   ranked 1,065 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

By the way, many people now believe that Edgar Allen Poe died of rabies. Still doesn't answer why he was in the ditch wearing someone else's clothing, but at least we have an idea of what killed him...


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

Logical! I don't mean to seem pushy, but I'd much prefer not to let life happen to me. I want to make it happen FOR me!

Well, considering that much of my life has been dedicated to defying tyrannous authorities, writing, and trying to help people...perhaps I'll die for writing something not approved of, in order to help people; slated for death by some tyrannous authority. xD
That would be irony.

Or...maybe I'll become a zombie. Ya know, just to defy the trend of ironic deaths.

This is interesting about the clothes not belonging to Edgar Allen Poe that he was wearing at the time of his death. I sure didn't know about this and he was always my favorite mystery writer. I sure didn't know this about Percy Bysse Shelley's heart, either. That's weird! It won't matter to me how my funeral is carried out when I die. It won't matter what the preacher says, how many people came, how many flowers are there, etc. What matters is how I lived my life. I know I do want singing, though, because I've always loved music. I have a particular song I want sung, too. Kathy.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cyrus123 (3255)   ranked 815 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

I do know that Edgar Allen Poe was an alcoholic. I don't know about Percy Bysse Shelley, though, whether he was a drinker or not.
My daddy passed away of a heart attack in 1985. That's the way I hope I go. I wouldn't want to be suffering with cancer or alzheimer's, the way mother did for so many years. She had several strokes, too. Kathy.


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

Kathy, I suspect, when the end does come for you, it might just be in the midst of a wonderful, intellectual discussion!


myLot reputation of 99/100. cyrus123 (3255)   ranked 815 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

You just never know. Only God knows these things. I just might be in my blue jeans or overalls, which is my favorite attire, lollolhappyhave a nice day! Kathy.

I want to die in a natural death, I mean growing too old...not at my sleep but after I bid goodbye and thanking all the loved ones I will leave behind.After I ask for forgiveness to all I have sinned and after my conversation with God.


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

I'm not so sure I know what's natural when it comes to death. Since we never really know what's going to happen, I make it a point to let those I love know how I feel, all the time, and let them know how glad I am that they are in my life. My conversations with God go on all the time, too...


myLot reputation of 84/100. mackiejp (263)   ranked 3,110 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

Natural death is like dying old. Not dying a painful untimely death like being murdered or suffered illness or accident. Even if how often we tell our loved ones and let them feel that we love them or extend our thanks to them everyday but I want to say it the moment before I will pass away. Even if we say our prayers everyday but I want to say it just before I leave this world, many died in their untimely death, they were unprepared, not even left any words to their loved ones and it gave so much pain for those they left behind. And I don't want my death to be like that if only I would be given a chance to choose my own death. I want to die old.


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

Frankly, I AM old, but I certainly have a lot of living left to do!!!

Hi, dhablue!
There are many mysteries surrounding death.
What sort of death do you think would be most appropriate and fitting to your life?


myLot reputation of 50/100. dhablue (114)   ranked 2,007 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

I think Soeharto's death

I'd just as soon die in my sleep, but to go along with my life, it needs to be something that people will think is a little weird. That way they can say well she always was a little strange.

Yeah me too Cobra without sounding too morbid, I would like to answer your question.
I definitely have at one time in my life suffered from suicidal ideology and the way I died was in a beautiful river in a beautiful white dressangel and white lillies in my hair..simply I had to be beautiful and when anyone found me they would be impressed by my beauty..hows that for crazy stuff?
The crazier part is that I actually did an oil painting of it and gave it to someone..they probably sold it..rofl


myLot reputation of 96/100. cobrateacher (4909)   ranked 4 out of 4,279 in thinker  2 years ago

Absolutely fabulous! Is that still the way you'd want to go?


myLot reputation of 98/100. OceanTiara (6977)  2 years ago

Well of course realising I have responsibilty to be on the 'reality' side of life, I just can't go, besides I need to be here in myLot discussing important issues hahahah.
Eh, no the ocean is much closer to me now..sooooo I could just saunter in there and still be beautious with the mermaids! Oh and the seals that turn into mermaids too! Thanks glad you liked it Cobra!
Seriously I would love to have that painting back now...it was lovely.
