3 approaches to tackle the fear of dying alone 😯
Always be positive! 🙌
One of my office colleague who is middle aged and unmarried soberly stated during our lunch time that he is living alone and fears that he may die alone unnoticed by anyone in his home only to be found decomposed some days later. This really intrigued me that he has this thought about his future which is genuine as no one is there to take care of him and the society isn’t prepared to take care for people of this category . I pondered over this and the below three approaches came to my mind to tackle this difficult situation:
- Have good companions while living
- Someone will find you at the right time
- Never mind about death
Let’s see how these approaches can work on real time
- Have good companions while living
Wise men have said that establish friendships based on character rather than based on benefits or common interests. The former one is everlasting whereas the latter one is short living as benefits and common interests changes over time. When one establishes good friendships, these friends will check about your whereabouts and make sure they are there, when you needed them the most. A friend in need is a friend in deed works well if one makes good friends while living.
