More Information About Death

I agree with you completely. We have a life span that everyone is fighting to extend but now we see the results--Alzheimer's, organ disease, and other miseries. But still we fight to live even when miserable. I don't understand it. 80 year olds get organ transplants that younger people could benefit from so that they can have a couple more years of life. It makes no sense. I'm 63 and ready to go when it's time, I've had a life and it's time to move on soon.

@dragon54u Frankly, I know my future will be downhill compared to what I have been used to in physical body terms and no pleasure to live those years. I want to go when there is no more quality to my life and have to depend on others however much they try to ease my discomfort. Few of my relatives are almost bedridden for years and it is indeed tough for them as well as for their caregivers. I know those who are on dialysis for years and that is just tough. I saw one video where one got the initial diagnosis of dementia and he opted for euthanasia as it was legal in his country (Holland). He saw first hand how his mother went through that phase and he came to the conclusion it was not worth to prolong his life. Agreed that is extreme, but still why try to prolong beyond a stage of no return to some quality in life. My father, a respected medical professor, stopped his medicines when he decided to let go of his life as he said it was just pointless - siva

Yes, I agree. I don't want to "linger" and cause my family grief. So, the "best that I can hope for is to die in my sleep." That's actually the words to a song. (The Gambler) Kenny Rogers. Have you ever heard that song?

Actually, Satan will be released, for a short time, AFTER a 1,000 years of being confined in the abyss. I'm sure this is what you meant. He won't be given another 1,000 years to do evil. Revelation 20:1-3 says "He seized the dragon, the original serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for 1,000 years. And he hurled him into the abyss and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not mislead the nations anymore until the 1,000 years were ended. After this, he must be released for a little while."

@IreneVincent Oops, my bad; you're right, that was a boo-boo.

Partaking in the immense feast that nature provides so unselfishly is my blessing and reward. I try to value add in my own way and really do not bother about where I end up if at all. I believe in karma - reap what I sow - so my actions are borne on that awareness - siva
