When you die.

It is really strange. When I have been in situations which were really dangerous, I knew they were life-threatening, but I still went there and the thought of dying was never in my mind. I don't believe I am a brave person, and I don't believe I am invincible - however I am not and have never been religious. I live my life ethically and manage the risks. So if the hob-goblins are waiting for me, it does not matter.
A lot of fear has it's origins in religion. I am not even anti-religion. I just don't care. I am 82 - what are my odds for getting past 90 ?

When you die, it does not really matter because you probably only ever heasr about other people dying.
In this life, our achievements are only limited by our mindsets.
What is important is how we are remembered, because when we are gone, we still exist in other peoples' memories.

My wife moved her sister out here so she could get better care and more family attention. She had Rheumatoid Arthritis and it had taken a toll on her mobility and quality of life. My wife is the youngest of seven and has been involved with care if her siblings. We thought Rennie had two or three years but it turns out the RA attacked her lungs and she was gone in less than 3 months. It has hit my wife particularly hard. The family was always close and now over half of them are gone.

Life is tough , my condolences to you & family
