How can you be afraid to live yet scared to die?

About This Quote

You can’t be afraid to live yet scared to die. It’s understandable that when you have a dream, you don’t want to lose it. But the only way to do so is by living your dream, not being afraid of it. You can be afraid of death or your dreams, but there is only one way out of both: through death or your dreams.

In order to get rid of the fear of dying and of losing what we had dreamed about, we must die and we must lose our dreams. Once we accept that we cannot live without dying and that we cannot live without losing our dreams, we will never be afraid to live and we will never be afraid to die.
