Death and CTB are inherently unpleasant and distressing ideas for the living. But sometimes so is existing. In fact, to interpret anything as unpleasant or distressing one must first be alive. It's natural to be afraid. That's why I think it's so important that the decision to permanently pause the movie and erase the disc is a rational one. We must feel confident that this is the best possible decision we can make for ourselves. That the net gain acquired from living can not be greater or equal to our costs acquired by our living. Every circumstance is unique, each body and each situation. And we may be afraid when the time comes. But fear is a part of life and sometimes you just can't reasonably avoid it like the pain of an injection. But any fear or apprehension we naturally feel regarding death will be the last time we experience fear or apprehension. We've had to be courageous so many times throughout our lives. We've experienced heartache, sadness, fear, anxiety, desperation, pain, and suffering likely numerous times throughout our lives. We understand what our experience of suffering entails -how it feels and what it means for us. We've been through so much perhaps we're barely holding on at this point. And so when the time comes to CTB, we'll need to be brave one final time. We'll be nearly at the finish. The exact same truly equal finish line every living being will eventually arrive at regardless of who you are or what you did or how you thought, felt, or acted. We'll need to muster all our remaining strength and motivation for the finale. It doesn't have to be grand. It just needs to get done, again, from a rational standpoint. Best of luck to all of you out there and I wish you all happiness and peace whether you're in your final moments, you're going to live to see another dawn, or you can sense these words and this sincere prayer from beyond the grave.
