Why we afraid so much the idea of Death?

Loosing recently my grandmother in the age of 88 i started thinking again why i personally i am afraid the idea of Death?

I was thinking about it since yesterday since funeral and the service and meeting with relatives are all gone and shorted and sitting back in the couch of my house pretending i was watching tv.

Why people afraid the idea of Death?Is it because it is one of the only thing that we dont know what is happening after we are dying?

I guess Death is the normal thing the most normal thing that suppose to happen and we cant avoid it.But since we cant avoid it why we get depressed with the idea of it?

My grandmother was 88 and i am now 30s and i cant stop thinking her last hours how she must felt.Did she scared?Did she sence she and everyone else is close to death?

I am trying to understand and find a confort to a big question which i guess i wont find any solution to it. I am not shy to say that i am afraid i am pretty much afraid the idea of dying and then not to be able to open my eyes.My mother keep saying that it is like closing our eyes and go to sleep.

Having the idea of closing our eyes and never wake up again it is just depressing.Having to know that we are ashes to ashes and dust to dust whats the meaning trying to make our lifes better since we are all going to die and never come back?

Is it something after death?Are we going somewhere?Are we meeting old friends and relatives that we knew and hoped to meet them because we missed them?

Are we going to Heaven and to be judge from a higher ''creature'' called God or we ended in Hell?

Is there is something after Death?Where our souls going through after death?Is it so simple to stop existing anymore?

Some tips for the books

Fallen (Fallen #1)by Lauren Kate 

There’s something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price’s attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce–and goes out of his way to make that very clear–she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her

Torment (Fallen #2) by Lauren Kate 

Hell on earth. That's what it's like for Luce to be apart from her fallen angel boyfriend, Daniel. It took them an eternity to find one another, but now he has told her he must go away. Just long enough to hunt down the Outcasts - immortals who want to kill Luce. Daniel hides Luce at Shoreline, a school on the rocky California coast with unusually gifted students -Nephilim, the offspring of fallen angels and humans.

At Shoreline, Luce learns what the Shadows are, and how she can use them as windows to her previous lives. Yet the more Luce learns, the more she suspects that Daniel hasn't told her everything. He's hiding something - something dangerous. What if Daniel's version of the past isn't actually true? What if Luce is really meant to be with someone else? The second novel in the addictive FALLEN series . . . where love never dies

I have already check out the books in English but i will give it another go in my own Language in case i miss something.. And this will happend around Easter,around the corner,which i will have plenty of time during holidays.

L.A. Weatherly - Angel (Angel Trilogy #1) preview

Angel (Angel Trilogy #1) by L.A. Weatherly

In a world where angels are beyond redemption, Alex thinks he's found one that might deserve mercy. Alex is a ruthless assassin - of angels. Forget everything you've heard about them before. Angels are not benign celestial creatures, but fierce stalkers whose irresistible force allows them to feed off humans, draining them of their vitality until there is barely anything left. As far as Alex is concerned, the only good angel is a dead angel...until he meets Willow. She may look like a normal teenager but Willow is no ordinary girl. Half-angel, half-human, Willow may hold the key to defeating the evil angels. But as the hunter and the hunted embark on an epic and dangerous journey and Willow learns the dark and terrifying secrets of her past, Alex finds himself drawn to Willow...with devastating consequences. Eoin Colfer reinvented the fairy, Stephenie Meyer reinvented the vampire, L.A. Weatherly reinvents the angel! This is a heart-pounding, knuckle-whitening, paranormal romance action-adventure for fans of the "Twilight" series. This is the first in a devastating new trilogy

Rating 5/5 

I was waiting for this book months and the moment i grap it i have no idea what happend and i held back on reading it at least 2 weeks!I wish i wouldnt done it to be honest because simply i was thrilled with the book!

Yes you may heard right that the book is for an angel and it might sound to you similiar with some other book you might read recently!But i personally enjoy it and in fact i finished in 3 nights ending with red eyes without proper sleep!

I have to say that Alex and Willow is a great couple.. and when i mean a great couple i really mean it!I like that that they started completely hating each other but slowly and slowly getting to know each other and to fall in love with other (not out of the blue like in some other books goes)

I pretty much like Willow the character how she become in love with Alex but the basic thing is i Loved how strong and confident she was when she had to do ... what she had to do anyway ;) even that she scared and all of these things!

Alex is/was lovely!I felt so sympathy with him how his past was how he had to deal with the situation with his family and all!And i gotta say i really like how He as well become in love with Willow at the same time she did as well!

Writing was good and you may comfuse a bit in the start because the POV of things switch back and forth from Willow and Alex and other characters too (''bad'' as well)but you get used of it eventually and i dare to say i even like it too!

The basic thing i was thrilled in a way with this book is because the romance and the action is switch on and off i mean one chapter there is the development between Alex and Willow and all then there is the action happening! I pretty much like how those 2 stuff was on and off without you getting bored and having all the suspense whats going on what is going to happend keep you continue reading it even that they actually start ruuning from the first chapters!

What i didnt like?Well i was very dissapointed how the dark/evil side of Angels describe...OK we know they are bad and they using humans and all BUT the describion was more like...I just wasnt able to picture it they way it did in the book! I felt more like a shapeshifter with wings was on rather than an Angel with bad purpose and all of this stuff!

Overall i like it and i am waiting for the second book! 

Some extras : Having to say i wanted to find my own copy of the book from the bookstore for months.. and By months i mean around 3-4 months But i guess i got lucky for a change and with a help from a friend i actually went and bought this some days ago ... Seriously one of my favourite book i read this year (yeah i know they are haters) and i cant wait for the #2 in the series which comes If i remember well around October...
