The thing that I realized is that no one is REALLY going to care if you die. Especially in today’s world. People move on very quickly. We all are relatively insignificant.
Dying isn’t the problem. Living while seriously ill….that’s the problem
Ever since I was a child, I felt that death was simply a doorway into another room, nothing to fear, perfectly natural.
I remember when my brother was passing away from cancer the last words he said was I’m tired. He closed his eyes and that was it. Death looked so peaceful and from then I no longer feared it. We don’t know when it will occur and what happens once your no longer alive no need to be afraid.
Im the same way man... No healthcare in 31 years. I am natural i except what happens to me here on earth. What has been amazing is everyone i know that goes to doctors often they are always sick. I aint had a cold in 16 years.
This begs the question: is it 'death' that people fear or is it the 'suffering' that often leads up to death, ESPECIALLY if you have a lengthy and painful illness? People also fear: leaving unfinished business, leaving loved ones and pets behind, not achieving goals and dreams... so, I don't actually think ANYONE fears the 'death' itself. That's the easy part. Just my two cents. I respect what you're saying, Tim.
So true. Religion makes people afraid of dying. As a child I thought people who weren’t saved by Jesus would all go to hell. What a torture 😢.
Tim, we miss you. I know I’m posting again, but just know that you mean a lot to many of us out here. Your videos are so meaningful and your inspiration has helped me through some very tough times. I sincerely hope you are doing well and just taking a little break. We are not owed an explanation and you have a right to privacy. If anything is going on and you need help, let us know. I’m serious. Sometimes we all need a little help. I seriously appreciate you.
Has anyone heard from Tim? It seems like it has been a few weeks. Hope everything is okay and maybe he just needed a little break.
It’s crazy you shared this message today. Twenty years ago today, October 19, I woke up to my first son dead. I felt so much pain but I realized over the years that what remains as the pain has subsided is gratitude for his life and the love I have for him lasts forever. I hope when I die that I will leave behind love in peoples hearts and gratitude for a life well lived. I agree it’s all cycles and I believe our souls paths are woven together like a tapestry. 💖
I usually don’t donate $5 but this video really gave me peace ☮️ and it makes me less scared of death 💀. Thank you so much Tim and God Bless You.
You are correct Tim, there is no need to fear death. "At death, the brain stops working. Our memories, feelings, and senses do not continue to function independently in some mysterious way. They do not survive the destruction of our brain. Psalm 146:4 says that when a man dies, “his thoughts perish.” The dead do not suffer pain or heartache. There is no reason to be afraid of them, for they cannot harm us. They do not need our help, and they cannot help us. We cannot speak with them, and they cannot speak with us."
Thanks for reminding me of my cat Matt, he was an adorable, affectionate, dopey critter who everyone loved, even cat haters. I fell asleep with him curled up at my side and woke to my sister screaming and running to my mother, I heard her say he's been hit by a car and I looked down and saw his empty imprint in the blanket and ran up to find him, I walked out front and crossed the road and saw him on the middle path of the avenue, I stood in front of him and saw his guts were hanging out of his stomach. His breathing was really heavy, and his head moved slightly towards me, I knelt down to him knowing he had no chance, and we looked each other in the eyes one last time before his head went to the ground, his breathing stopped, and his eyes glazed over white. I was gutted but for some reason I feel grateful that I got out to see him pass, I know he must've been glad to see me there. He was only 2, young for a cat, and one of the best. I didn't mourn his death so much as sulked it. But he did seem at peace in that final moment of suffering, and it comes to us all. As it's long been put, 'Death smiles at us all, and all a cat can do is smile back.'
Tbh, my main concern as far as health care isn't so much that I might die without it... it's that I might end up with an extremely painful and debilitating condition that just refuses to actually kill me. Admittedly, that can happen with or without health insurance, but there are a lot of conditions like that which can be treated with simple surgical procedures.
tim this video was absolutely incredible! when i was 14 years old i had a near death experience and talked to the creator.. a year ago i had a second near death experience and was out of my body traveling in the cosmos.. if you do any research on ndes.. you are hitting this right on point!! death is nothing to fear and something im looking forward to! as much as i love life here and live everyday in peace & love making the most of everyday and making sure to live with no regrets.. death is a beyond peaceful experience and you will definitely meet the people you love again on the other side and in other lives.. there are people i call my soul family because i know we’ve met so many times and we’ll leave the body and be a pure soul being and become whatever we want to be!
I personally think it is none of our business what it's like on the other side. I think our whole purpose is to learn, love and share while we are human beings. I know in the past, I have spent too much time wondering about death and what happens next.
To hell with being scared of death. Over it, now I'm truly living!! I've missed you Tim, I finally broke free from my addiction to prescription medication and I feel amazing and I'm back baby!!! Missed your Face!! Hope all is well with you!!!
Hi Tim, trying to accept death better but still have some struggles about it. Raised as a Christian , but still have my fears. Getting better but not by any means over it. Liked what u shared today. Wished I was “there” but honestly not yet. Thanks for the share👍
I come back to Buddhism as my working hypothesis for reality. Seems to map; the cyclical nature of samsara, rebirth, non-self. The more one mediates on death, the less we cling to it and things feel lighter as a byproduct. One of my good friends volunteered at hospice for years. Many people thought it was morbid. She deeply loved it, being with others as they passed. It revealed a reality we don't see.
No matter if people agree or disagree with you Tim, I feel we should all see the beauty of the natural honesty that Tim shares with us on the regular. I’m Christian and find much of what you say agreeable and in many ways comforting. The part about missing the ones you love after death. Yeah.. that’s a big one (that’s what she said) no matter what walk in life your on. The loss of loved ones is perhaps the heaviest burden to bear. Keep up the walk and talks Tim. You are well loved brother.
