Just out of curiosity, are you afraid of death? Why or why not?

That's kind of a silly thing to be afraid of, considering people die all the time.

[mirrored_seal]

It doesn't change the fact that some people are afraid of their own death.

I take it you're not one of them.

[umbrelladouche]

I've seen a lot of deaths. It doesn't bother me at all.

[mirrored_seal]

... So in other words, your courage comes from apathy...?

In the end, it's just inevitable.

Re: text;

[mirrored_seal]

Well, yes. But that doesn't answer the question.

[zeroslate]

I've never been in a situation that requires me to ask that question, but I suppose I'm not.

That doesn't mean I'd be stupid enough to seek it though.

I'd hope not! D:

So, you're not afraid because you know it's inevitable... That makes sense.

[vesperiaftw]

That's a weird question.

[mirrored_seal]

After discovering our lives are in the hands (paws?) of mice, I felt the need to be philosophical and assert my place as a being capable of deep, meaningful thoughts.

That, and we ran out of flour, so I couldn't bake anything.

[vesperiaftw]

I think I'm doing just fine without the deep, meaningful thoughts, thanks.

[mirrored_seal]

To each their own! :D

[nosamurai]

Is it necessary to ask this anonymously?

[mirrored_seal]

... I thought people would feel inclined to answer honestly if there wasn't a face attached to the questioner... Was I wrong?

[nosamurai]

Playing on the idea that it's easier to confess to a stranger than someone you know? I guess it makes sense, if it's how people like using this form of communication. I'd rather know who I was talking to, at least for things like these. Speaking for anyone else or their preferences, well... I won't. It's just mine.

[mirrored_seal]

Well... Alright.

[meatbun_monkey]

...Nah.

I mean, if you die, you die. You can't stop it and it'll happen eventually. So you'll just end up going on to the next life.

Next life? Like, the afterlife, or Nirvana? :o

[voice]

[meatbun_monkey]

Like reincarnation. But I guess Nirvana, if you make it to that.

... So then, a person continues to live after death?
