then we go nowhere and that keeps me awake at night

Answer 1

I'd say that one were born to die, and if we knew the exact date and time and day and year that were suppose to die, I think it would drive us crazy.. I'd say try to think about living, I mean your life spam is what it is ya know? good luck

Answer 2

Live peacefully as you can. Don't bother for the future life. Just do the right things while in this world and there's nothing to be afraid of.

Answer 3

I cant tell you how to fix the problem only you know that truly you do i promise but let me tell you this instead. Death is going to happen to you, whatever is after that is going to happen to you. You have no choice Each thing each being knows this the secret is to be like a tree. Though it knows its leaves will fall off at the right time it takes no care to hold onto them but instead keeps them healthy and nurtures them till they fall away. It doesnt resist the wind it takes no care for it but simply lets it be and sways as much as its roots will allow, for what need is there to worry when the roots are there of course your problem appears to be your a bunch of worried roots not doing your job and so the tree is falling over, which is in turn worrying all your branches and leaves. If the roots worry to much the tree will die. Dont put your own light out. Christians would probably tell you Satan is frightening you into not living your life out. And Satanists might say its God trying to scare all his followers into doing the right thing. Im going to tell you the outcome is always up to you.

Answer 4

Well, it is what it is. Whatever it is. So why not just live each day with love and enjoyment. Because no matter what, we all will die one day, your not going to change that. So you could spend the next year, ten years or even the next sixty years worrying about what will happen when your body dies. If you do that then you could be missing out on a whole lot of living. Tomorrow is promised to no one, so live for today. Does that make any sense? Just for the record, I very strongly believe in God and that we don't die. Our body dies, our spirit just changes form. I think it is a beautiful thing.  Have you read Conversations with God book 1, it might be of help to you.

Answer 5

Wow... i think you need to take it easy. Every time you start thinking about these things, you loose sleep time and the following day is ruined. Remember "Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that's what it is called the Present." Don't ruin your gift!!! Enjoy it, and don't think about the mysteries of tomorrow.  

Answer 6

You spent twenty years of your life learning how the afterlife works, and how to work it..  so you've got your ticket, as do I...

There is no god, no heaven...  h**l is what we've done to the planet...

At death you have 7.28 seconds to do what must be done to effect and secure the afterlife...   If you are worried that you don't know how to work immortality, you don't, and you are to recycle back into Life's soup.. embrace it...  Accept that you blew it...  Religion's god is just a money sucking scam, that sucked you in...

Answer 7

This is what everyone thinks. Second of all this is not a question. and third of all its not worth worrying about it because if what you said is true and there is no other side you better enjoy your time here and not waste it.

Answer 8

That may be one of the reasons you see Rest In Peace on so many tombstones. Get right with God,if he's out there, you will have done a great favor for your eternity. If he's not out there, you have done no harm to your neighbor,and you truly can rest in peace. John Paul II told us in the words of Christ Be not afraid,

Answer 9

The fix to this is simple. Live without fear. (Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil.) Just live a good honest life, follow the word of the heavenly father. Heavens nothing to fear, its anything and everything you could ever want.

Answer 10

technically if you are christian then you need only not do unchristian like things and if you slip up go to confession and that way if there is a god and a heaven or h**l then you will surely go to heaven.

if there isn't one, then you will just cease to exist and won't be a mind capable of disappointment so it won't bother you.

just like every night yo ugo to sleep and a bunch of time passes without you knowing it. your mind is unaware every night for a while. basically you cease to exist every night. i don't see why death would be more of an experience than sleep. if anything it should be the opposite.

not even the universe has existed for an eternity nor will it. certainly all things in it, all things made of it, and that make it, the stuff which is universe, cannot possibly outlive the universe itself.

Answer 11

Classical music is good idea.

"The Great Divorce," C. S. Lewis,

"Expecting Adam," Martha Beck,

"Testimony of Light," Helen Greaves, too.

One nice thing about "no God"--one experiences no time at all, so it's similar to drifting off to sleep.

But there is so much evidence of God and afterlife, that one should instead be concerned to live a good life, champion one's inner joy, love, and spirit, and relate to God in the way you find most helpful.

Your dreams are close to how you are first aware after passing on.  Then, help is given to you to awaken and teach you.  C. S. Lewis' book is very helpful as to how things develop in dreams, and after life on earth.

If you are awake, give 1-800-525-LOVE http://www.klove.com a call 24-7; they have licensed counselors who are kind and able to talk with you and answer your questions.

Answer 12

...one day when you take a time out, enjoy YOURSELF...

...and rest and relaxation will return...

...all those concerns will disappear

...because you choose not to let down run your life...

...and can handle them on your own...good luck...

Answer 13

Have you ever asked the Lord into your life?  I did many years ago and He has helped me and blessed me a lot.  Please read the Bible, New Testament first.  I suggest starting with the Gospel of Mark.  Also, here are some other verses that may help you:  Romans 10:13, Romans 5:8, Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, John 3:16, Proverbs 3:5,6;

Philippians 4:6,7.  Pray about your concerns.  It really helps.  Try visiting some Bible-believing churches.  At the end of the service, they usually invite people to come forward if they have questions.  Talk to the pastor about your concerns.  I'll pray for you.  

Answer 14

whoa honey! take a deep breath... and relax... belief can be a strong motivator to get one behaving in a certain manner... what manner do you believe you should behave in... I don't believe in God... but I know my life is about learning and that after I die I get to share what I have learned with the Universe and all who live in it... and then I get to come back and learn something new...

Answer 15

you may live to be 100 so trust God and stop worrying about it and enjoy life!

Answer 16

Death comes to us all, and so is the natural end to life.

Death comes at any time.

We don't know what lies beyond death; we only know what others have told us.

Therefore, is death not simply the next stage of the adventure?

Does God cease to exist if there is another option in the afterlife?

Answer 17

Well the way I see it, no matter what the afterlife, it will be peaceful. If it's heaven, then it won't exactly be restless; if it's nonexistant, then I won't exist to feel bad. However, if it's h**l... Well who knows. The interesting question is, would it better to not exist, or to exist in eternal torment?

Long story short, worry about life, not afterlife. Carpe diem, etc, etc.

Answer 18

look at it this way

U have no control over it. u have no power to decide what will happen to u after death.  and there is no use of thinking abt things that are not in yr hands. leave these things to God believing that whatever he will do will be for your own good  

Answer 19

God will take you when hes ready but lack of sleep can make you sick so you should just relax listen to some classical music and fall asleep if your scared you wont wake up set an alarm clock

Answer 20

It is good to die while sleeping. Your spirits will be in Gods hand. And while i live in short span of my life. I will do my very best. And try to love every creature within my reach. And then i will be happy and content with what my own hands can create. I will hone love and touch others. And i will die peaceful. So you have no excuse not to die. Cause you have created a wonderful craft nobody can create. And that is your love.
