I don't believe that there is an appointment set up out there already for me to die. And if there is, I believe it's written in pencil and available for rescheduling. I also don't feel that on any of my close calls that I've cheated death. I guess I don't look at death as any kind of mystical occurance. I think it happens to all of the living creatures on this earth as a matter of fact finallity.
But when the time comes, I only hope that I'm conscious when it happens. If this is the last thing that's going to happen to me, I'd like to be aware of it while it's going on. I wonder, if you die in your sleep, do you know you're dying? If not, that would have to be the worst way to go.
