I was never afraid of death until very recently. See, I used to believe I could live forever. That’s no longer the case. I now realize I am capable of dying at any moment. I am completely mortal. My life can be robbed at any time. I could breathe my last breath at any moment.

It’s scary. I never imagined living in this fear. Things are so bad right now that life is uncertain. I want to go back to my old mindset. I want to be able to look death straight in the eye and say, “I ain’t afraid of you, mister!” I want to believe in immortality once again.

But if death must occur, I want to be okay with everything if I die. I want to know I did all I could. If I die, I want to rest in peace.
