Don't be so afraid of death that it makes you afraid of life.

The best you can do is to postpone death for as long as possible -- but it is going to happen to you at some point. It's the one 100% guaranteed certainty in your life, and you will have to face it sooner or later; we all will. No getting away from it. Just make the journey there a worthwhile one, try not to have too many regrets, and hope that you won't be too afraid when you feel yourself sliding down into the dark forever.

I'm like this most of the time. I don't limit my life out of fear of death, but at the same time, as I get older and the inevitable is closer, I do irrationally fear it if I think too much on it. Like reading this thread. :-)
