Snoopy’s advice sucks

If you know me at all, you’ll know that I suffer from a persistent, constant, never-ending existential crisis. 

I think about death all the time. More that you could ever imagine.

In an effort to alleviate my concerns and perhaps offer me a little peace, one kind reader sent me this cartoon. 

But there’s one terrible flaw in Snoopy’s logic:

Yes, it’s true. There is only one day in our lives when we will die, but we will also stay dead for all the days after we die. For as long as time and space exist, we will not. 

Death sucks, but it’s just the beginning of an eternity of remaining dead. And that, even more than my death, saddens me. Constantly. Immeasurably.
