Fear of Death Challenge

I have a proposal: Everybody send me a note with a fear of something….anything (except for death), and I will prove how it all leads to a fear of death.

Ex: Fear of heights.

Heights>falling>helplessness>landing>dying (get off here or…)/getting hurt>dying.

Ex#2: Fear of water.

Water>swimming>being smothered>helplessness>suffocating>pain>drowning/dying.

Need I continue? So go ahead. I challenge you to find a fear I can’t trace back to fear of death!

Good luck!
