Meditating on your own death?

[Tobi]

I often do this.
I don't even call it "death". I call it "transition" or "crossing over".

That is not a frightening thing!

The illness that causes it -well yes, that is never going to be a nice thing. That's what I dislike most.
Preparing the mind and Heart for crossing over is a positive thing to do. So long as focus on leaving the world doesn't get bigger than focus on living life also.

I think I can relate to this, it's like a reaction telling you to avoid death as long as possible.
