afraid of pain?! thats crazy... pain is my pleasure.... without pain, i wouldn't feel alive (probably why i have so many tattoos)
and no, i'm not afraid of dying... and i'm even pretty damn agnostic! (leaning toward the atheist side)
anyway, i know that my life will be pretty damn insignificant as far as the "history of man" goes. when i die, i will become one with the earth again... i will decompose, and every atom that made up my being will be spread across the earth and be a part in every other human's existence in one way or another.
[edit] eh, figured i should delete this... just got back from vacation, don't need another one
point is, eventually, since matter is neither created or destroyed, something that made up the physical "me" will eventually make up the physically "millions of people"[/edit]
