Introduction
Death does not receive much attention in health circles, except for warning. Premature death is portrayed as the ultimate risk factor for the inability to live wisely, that is, according to well-being. (Of course, I hope that the postponement of death is not even close to one of the best reasons for a reasonable living.)
As far as I know, few promoters for well-being have a positive effect on death. Still. It cannot be ignored, since the consequences of this can be quite terrible. So, the promoters and all the rest - consider the possibilities of a REAL wellness way to die, when you are good and ready, and when you stay alive, in a fairly good condition - no. There is, after all, a wellness option if you plan it, and the conditions are correct.
Robert Green Ingersoll, at the beginning of his sharp January 9, 1882, “The Oracle on the Child’s Grave”, said these words:
Why should we be afraid of what will come to all that is? We cannot say, we do not know what is the greatest blessing — life or death. We cannot say that death is not very good.
This idea of death as a good never done. No one wants to hurry, but the prolongation of life, if and when it becomes unbearable or even terrible from death agony, cannot be very attractive.
Now it is time to expand the scope of REAL well-being to the final act of life, when you, in consultation with medical experts, concluded that no precious stones of joy can be collected and stored. Planning your own death is a key element of the new and improved concept of health. That is, REAL wellness.
dying
Many, if not most people die after a prolonged illness, in a hospital, hospital or at home after a period of decline and suffering, often in ways that are difficult, to say the least. The exception suddenly dies from a heart attack or stroke, a car or plane crash, or some other random method. For most in reliable peaceful societies, death is slow, gradual and unpleasant. Over time, life becomes less attractive, joys are diminished and suffer. Often the pain gets worse when the body gradually, without assistance, turns off.
When prospects of a decent quality of existence are considered gone forever, by you, a painless and peaceful end should be a REAL choice of good health, if necessary.
However, due to religions, this right does not exist, with the exception of a few places on Earth (including the whole of Canada and the six states of the United States and the District of Columbia). This is largely because, like almost everything else, religious poisons are death.
Heavy Religion Hand of Death in America
As with slavery, the prohibition, throwing stones, organized marriages, blasphemy, and Sunday blue laws that prohibit trade in general and enjoyment, in particular, on Lord’s Day, government restrictions that block the right to death are undermined. Over time, bans on hostile or personally initiated suicide will, at their own discretion, be considered hypnotized and grotesque, like the aforementioned examples of past ecclesiastical interventions in matters of individual choice. But perhaps not in time if you want this prerogative, but not hiding in Oregon, Montana, Colorado, Vermont, California, Washington, DC or other US jurisdictions that have the privilege of what seems to be a basic secular law.
Unfortunately, those who are guided by the interpretation of revelations, sacred books, and various dogmas and religions, insist that everyone, believing or not, adhere to his religions. Only God gets to play God, they say that such religious figures as Trump's gift to the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsukh. New justice even wrote a book against the choice of dying, referring to the Catholic mantra on the inviolability of human life.
Christians insist that only their god can decide when Christians and everyone else are allowed to die. Alas, their god seems to have a nasty habit of preventing, if not accumulating long periods of complete suffering, torture actually, before plunging into a solution, well, now you can stop suffering.
Arguments about death in death, death with dignity, final withdrawal / options are connected in America with conflicts of church / state. Absent religions, there would be little or no choice against when and how to die.
Your choice
People who watched a loved one know why it is important to die in the mind. Failure to peacefully complete one’s own time seems to be a fundamental human right. But it is not surprising that we are a society condemning death, given religious fantasies. I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. Reading the daily obituaries in the Tampa Bay Times, one would think that even those who appear appear on the pages of the dwelling, do not really die. They passed, they went to be with their Lord and Savior, or they moved to heaven to live with a loved one lost many years ago (who supposedly appeared in this imaginary, but better place).
For different opinions on the legalization or prohibition of choice at death, you can find June 3, 2017 Letters section New York Times instructive. The letters refer to the May 28 series, entitled, The Death and Life of John Shields ,
A healthy lifestyle includes, in addition to wise choices and actions in areas such as exercise and nutrition, stress management, using the cause, the desire for abundance and the acquisition of personal freedoms, a strong sense of personal responsibility for everything that affects your life. It seems logical that all those who adhere to this philosophy in order to live well will want to apply the same level of self-reporting when death approaches, if circumstances allow.
Stay healthy, enjoy life, and accept that all of us must die in time. In America, we must have the right to decide if circumstances allow, how and when we will finish.
