Some people say they don’t fear death because they think it makes them sound brave. So I don’t usually believe what people say about themselves on this topic.

Some people say they don’t fear death because they think it makes them sound brave. So I don’t usually believe what people say about themselves on this topic. Unless they’re quite old or lived through cancer or some similar situation where they had to confront their mortality, I won’t assume they know how they truly feel about their death. It’s just an idea when expressed with words, and simply thinking about it may not evoke real emotions.
