I’ve always said I’m not afraid of dying alone. It’s because I always imagine dying is the thing at the end. A future event. But we’re all dying all the time. And being alone at the time of my death isn’t the thing to fear it’s being alone up to that time. It’s being alone now. That’s what dying alone is. And this realization makes me afraid.

    It’s easy to feel like you’re okay dying alone until you are in a position where you might die alone.
