I always think about the fact that I will die one day. Can you give me a reason why I shouldn’t worry about it?

    Reasons to not worry about death specifically because you worry about death:

    1. Every moment you spend worrying about death is a moment you aren’t spending truly alive. If you’re worried about running out of time, then why would you want to keep wasting time worrying?
    2. Stress—like that from constant worry—quite literally kills you both physically and psychologically. The more stressed you are the more wear and tear both your body and brain experience. So not only is worry wasting your life, it is also shortening it; in other words, worrying about death is actually bringing you closer to it.
