For me, death is just another fact of life but I don't think dying from old age will be one of those facts that will be around for much longer (in terms of a century). Yet diseases, accidents, and murder will still be there to cut life short to be sure. I just think it's odd that there's a great many essays on the matter of death where people argue it's preferable to accept it than to fight it even if it's futile. I'd rather go out with a bang than a whimper. At least then I know I tried and I didn't let death off too easy.
