I made a picture today.

There is many thoughts in my head recently. I thought what will happen if we die
then start afraid. So I cannot do many things these days.

Nothing perks me up when I'm feeling down like sad fruit.

I like it - did you use subsurface lighting for the mulberry?




most awful of evils, death, is nothing to us, since when we exist there is no


So in reality we normally don't fear death, but possible pain while dying.
In my western environment, nobody has to feel pain - at least in a good hospice.

Several years before I escorted my best friend during his last weeks and he died
in peace. At the end he had some joyful mystical near-death experiences which
helped him a lot to let go.

Maybe the fear partly due from my personality. I'm a silent man. And when I
think that everyone will die one day, I'm afraid that I will die suddenly. I
don't give enough meaning with my diary life. So I scared too little
preparation.

In my country, many people believe that we will reincarnate after our life. So
we may come from another people, another animal, or even a stone, even a grass.
I first feel this saying is comfort to me these days.

That sounds like the Indian Nirvana, and before reaching it (based on
attained wisdom) to be re-born as animal etc.?

And yes - I like the mulberry, too! Looks really good. Just the colors
are a bit dull, like not enough light. And a suggestion: place many of
them beside each other (a cluster), but in all possible (random) colors!
That could maybe even help against sad mood...

This is a very beautiful image indeed.

Norbert mentioned Epicurus as a way to look at death, I would add a word 
from Erasmus if I may, which I try to make my own on a daily basis: 
"work, as if you had eternal life; live, as if this is your last day".

By work you can understand everything which occupies and interests you 
of course.

Yes, similar.
