Its so trippy though. We've lived with our conscience our whole life thinking that we'd die with it but would be able to tell the difference between life and death once our brains and hearts stopped working? If you say we can't then in otherwords, we won't know when we die because we wouldn't be alive to be able to recognize being dead. You will realize you're dying but I don't think we'll know when we're actually dead. You're right though once we're dead we're gone, thats the end of life.
When I said nothingness is nothingness I meant nothingness doesn't exist because we don't know it doesn't exist. We're cut off from reality so feelings like fear and concern doesn't exist anymore. So what is there to worry about when you won't even feel the normal emotions we do when we're alive and breathing?
