I don't fear death, I've thought several times that leaving this life and going to live with God in eternity is much better, here in this world it's just a place for people to evolve and be prepared for eternity.
However, as the world is nowadays difficult, everything makes you distract yourself and distance yourself from God and things tend to get worse with new wars and new technologies.
one hour technology will advance so much that it will destroy everything and thus start a new cycle.
