Simple question really, are you afraid of death, and explain your reasoning if you can please

Me personally, i'm not scared of death, of course i don't want to die, i'm young and want to live my life , but death is a part of life you just can't ignore it. Some would say its the only certainty you can have.

No. I have no reason to be.
It happens to everyone. I don't fear it, nor do I seek it out. I will fight it until the end but will fear it when the moment comes.
But it happens, so when the time really comes and I can no longer fight it, I will accept it.

Same ^

I can't say I'm not afraid of it, for I am afraid of it. To be more precise, I'm afraid of an early death. I want to live life to the fullest, and I want to live long and healthy. I wouldn't want to live forever however, so when I'm too old to "live life" I would want death to take me.

"If I do good, people might accuse me of selfish, ulterior motives, but I will still do it. Because I believe no one is malicious, not in their core, in their raw being.
The best in them is clouded by sorrows and fears, take those away and you'll bring out the brightest of lights in them.
Because no one can be happy without being kind, without giving ourselves to another, and we all love to give ourselves, it is our true nature.
That is why, even if I might get disappointed, I'll always give the best I've got. A single candle can light a thousand others and still burn." - Skezra

Nope.

I couldn't care less about dying. I'm only here now to help others, not for myself. Besides, why fear something which is definitely going to happen to you at some point in your life? It's inevitable, there's no stopping it...may as well live with the fact and focus on the here and now. When you're dead, you're dead; nothing happens, and eventually you'll just become a faded memory. That's reality for ya.

I do "fear" HOW I die though. I would not like to die in agony.

I don't care about dying. I really do not care, now or later, doesn't really matter to me.
Though, I'm scared of people dying around me

Yeah I'm just scared about what happens to you really like obviously no-one knows for sure. About afterlife or anything, it's scary :'(

No, I don't fear dying. I fear I might not accomplish what I set out to do before I die, however.

I’ve always interpreted death as natural cause in life. I don’t fear death as it stands alone but rather how I am going to die. Uncertainty is one thing I can not cope with, the feeling of being at ease with one self because of the fear of the unfamiliar. Will I leave earth on a tragic note? Or peacefully? This is where my mind is lingers in panic. Suppose no one would like to die in agony; pain, everyone desires for a peaceful transition from the physical world to the spiritual realm.

No as even if you are scared....you have to die anyways later on when you are old. Our time will come.
