Well, in a strictly theoretical sense, philosophically speaking, I don't fear death either, because I know I've died many times before and I'm still doing fine and it's even better in spirit than it is in a body anyway....BUT....if I barely avoid getting run over by a truck or falling off a high place, I get scared!

So, it depends on how you look at it. :-) Like daylia said, we are attached to the familiar and find major changes that we weren't planning on to be disturbing...
