''Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good''.
Every human, at one point or another has feared deaht or still fears .Some of us may have overcome those fears which seem to surrond the notion of Death, others will carry that fear till they meet death itself.
We must now be true to oursleves and ask "what really are we afraid of ?" when we r ready to answer that question we will realize that in truth, it is not death that we fear but oursleves and our unwillingness to let go of what we consider to be real. Deayh is only a phase, a moment of transition from one state to another. How many of us fear birth "Birth" . On the contary there is joy, thus leading to the celebrations of ones birthday.
Why fear is assciated with death is because no one knows what lies beyond . Men have always regarded the unknown with a various mixture of awe and fear. Ask urself " Why d i not want to die? the obvious answer will have to be "because i want to live". What if life is like a kind of sleep on dream, and when we awakwen to a time life. Whilst we dream at night , at that moment we do not know that we r dreaming only to be awakend us from the dream from this life, and maybe into a dreaming likewise death may awaken us from this dream of life, and maybe into a "true life". i said , so it may or may not happen, but it would be wise to keep an open mind.
Another reason why death is not that popular among humas is because with death comes sorrow. But it is not death which cause sorrow, but love that cause the greif we feel. The more one loves one person, the more grief is felt when death claims them. for example if someone u truly loves die, u will naturally greive, but u will not greive in the same way if some unknown person dies.
Death is just a path humans tread upon, from the moment he or she is born. When u live , u must also die. The say that for each of us there is a bullet out there, with our name on it, and when its time there is no escaping it, but till then live your life to the fullest, for death is just a word , for death is an awakeening.
This thing took a long time to write and i dont want to spell check it...enjoy ^_^

A very inspirational and moving hypothesis I must say. I do not fear death but aging
