What do you think about death?

Post by neo »

What do you think? I cry and mourn for loved ones when I think of death. It makes you wonder "Why do people die?" My aunt died two years ago. :( this year, my dad fainted because of extremely low sugar, and I thought he was going to die).I am a very negative person, so I was thinking, or imagining how my dad would die.
I imagined that my mom would come out crying, with her eyes bloodshot, like when my aunt died. I NEVER think positive, But I wish I wasn't, its horrible for me. :( But, my dad is fine,now, but it could happen again, thank god I learned how to do CPR the previous year! :) But, the fact that I know he will have to die someday, haunts me, but I just don't think about it. of course I will have my time to, but not before my dad, thats why I hate how I think, of course, when we were at the hospital, I didn't say what I thought would happen to my sister, I didn't want to worry her, I kept my dark thoughts to my self. even celebrities you never got to know(the three stooges, my favorites) were dead. I read an auto-biography about them, and the one to witness his friends and family dying, was the last to die.*sobs, sobs* Actually, I cried about it one night, but quitely, thats how I cry.

Along the way, due to my abiding interest in art, I worked in three art museums, eventually becoming the director of the graphic design department at The Museum of Modern Art in New York, which produces the graphic design for exhibitions, publications and marketing.

Sometimes I totally get lost in my thoughts about death (endless darkness and emptiness, knowing you will never exist anymore until the end of time, if it even exists). When it happens I get a really strange feeling, it's like feeling nervous for something, but many times stronger. But when I stop thinking about it I always feel better than before, especially when I'm depressed. It's like I had my portion of dark thoughts and then it's time to let that go again.

There were and continue to be, several men to the development of this course, not least of them the electronic component. I developed this course as an independent, adjunct instructor in a matter of a few months, left largely to my own devices. There were cross-platform issues to deal with; the need to quickly design an application that would be easy to use and reliable; software distribution and assignment submission issues; and the electronic equivalent of paperwork in order to keep track of student progress, grading, etc. Nevertheless, students have responded to the course generally favourably. I was pleased upon reviewing course evaluations for the spring term that many students singled out the helpfulness of the meaning/value paradigm in increasing their understanding of the course material.

Five years ago, when there were far less people on the Internet than there are today, people were wary and skeptical about forming virtual relationships. The fact remains that online, it is very easy to create a character or persona very much different from you. One cannot be completely sure if the people they befriend in chatrooms are who they claim to be. As the years went by, the population of Internet users grew, and new softwares and innovations made online interaction easier and more convenient. The latest and most popular to date is Friendster, which was created by Jonathan Abrams, an engineer and entrepreneur based in Silicon Valley, and launched in March 2003. Friendster took the Philippines by storm on July and got anyone with access to the computer so addicted to it that reports say Friendster been growing at 20% per week since then (Smalla). Because of its ability to build friendships through “friend-of-a-friend” referrals, Friendster makes online interaction more personal and easier to carry onto the offline world than other forms of online communication.

A Conversational Arse is the most personal of all four because introductions are made through actual communication instead of just a profile or a list of interests. The medium of Conversational Networks are weblogs or blogs, which is a journal published on the Internet that contains a mixture of what is happening in a person’s life as well as the latest web trends. Blogs are updated regularly and can be maintained even by people with little technical knowledge through the use of a program or script. What happens is that a person read someone’s blog, and then gets a general idea of the author based on what he or she writes in the blog. One can even participate in someone’s blog by adding comments on their entries. Bloggers—those who own and write in blogs—have the choice to ignore their readers or reciprocate by reading and placing comments on the blogs of their readers. Then they can develop a more personal relationship through e-mails, chat, or an eyeball, a term used for people from the Internet who meet face-to-face for the first time.

Today there is a new kind of online board called Social Networking Models. When an online community is powered by a Social Software, the software is designed to place certain limitations on the users and how relationships are formed, particularly when two strangers make initial contact. The number one advantage of this is the users’ behavior is regulated because the software sets a limit on the amount of contact they have with each other, as opposed to the physical world where the boundaries of interpersonal communication and appropriate behavior lie on societal norms and etiquette, which can easily be broken.

I'm nots scared about death. I know everybody will die one day, my parents will, my family will, my friends will, my loves will, and I will too, so why would I be scared of it ? I wanna enjoy my life before dying. That's why I'm often (but not always, I'm sometimes depressing...) positive about life. My grandmother died in january, I didn't cry, cause I know I'll die too one day. But I often think about death... and I wonder : What happens after death ?

To develop a reading, I choose images in a layout from the initial entry database and import them into the lecture database via their Collection ID number. I use one layout to sort images into a sequence for presentation and another to plan. The planning layout has fields from both the entry and research databases, allowing me to synthesize both information noted from image entry as well as research found on the subject of the image from the Internet or other sources. Finally, I project the lecture using a separate layout in the same lecture database.

Physical Networks initiates relationships when people introduce themselves to each other as they would in person. The software then sets a certain date, time, and place for users with similar interests to get together and carry on the relationship in real life.

Death? According to japanese traditions, life is only the beginning, so... Personally I think it's waste of time to think about death. What's the point of getting yourself depressed or worried? Of course, if somebody of your close ones die, it's the other matter. But when I think about myself dying...buh....
