I am an avid reader of near death experiencers, they are fascinating, if i put that as a title, NDES you wont read it. A recent one discussed how on coming back to life she had trouble re-adjusting, not to the fact she had a near death experience and all that entails, but to having to come back to this life.
It has been a lifelong struggle.
That the short time she spent where we really exist was so incredible that coming back here was absolutely dreadful. All NDERS report an expansion of consciousness, that we become, well, expanded. A common question is " what have you learned" from the light. And my reply will be that i know what your doing Mr God", even before i die. Im still alive, so i still have stuff to do. Maybe it might be about this, that i have posted such. Dying is good, you can go home......and expand, be free, unshackled.

Assuming that what I believe is true, I'm ready to pass on to the next life any time.
I've had a pretty good life and it seems, the longer we hang about, the more difficult it becomes

Me too, everything in life is struggle, everything, there are no truck stops where we can take it easy. Solve one problem another pops up, even enjoyment of whatever, has a shelf life, all is entropy, everything degrades. Rest can only come from death. Science now agrees that there is " something" after death.

I think the modern age has revealed something that was in previous ages was somewhat hidden by the limitations of tech.
It's all about personality types. The wrong personality types can end up in control of others because they are the types who tend to push for control over others and, since we stopped being any kind of functioning meritocracy, these personality types have run wild and turned everyone's existence into a cramped, soul-less, function-less 'dicking about exercise'
IT / tech is an excellent example - we can cast our minds back to the Utopian notion of the paperless office, a world in which all the tedium was packed away and invisible so we could all concentrate on our actual work. How foolish. We are now faced with leaky operating systems that have to be updated every ten minutes, fifty passwords, the threat of people entering your bank accounts, endless tedious hoops to do anything at all, none of this being visiable so it can't stop causing low level anxiety. In the fifties you knew you were being robbed because the fucker would have do it person, now it can happen while you are taking a well earned 'break from life's worries' and when you phone the bank you are put through to someone who doesn't speak English

I imagine that I have been lucky, but I have had a pretty good life and am in no rush to leave. Bits of me are beginning to pack up and/or fall off, but it is fun working round my various problems.
I had a thundering row with Madam this morning, so somehow I have to get down the stairs, fire up the mobility scooter and get some flowers by way of a peace offering. That should be fun 
Oops, I forgot to mention, another episode of Young Sheldon should come on line this evening, so how bad is that ?

Then you are lucky, ive been up against it from the moment i was born, as mentioned by orac, my personality type has to learn to be like everyone else, and its a lifelong struggle to find out who we really are, never mind live it. Then to be our authentic selves. Not condusive to most. Having said that we all have to learn who we are, my type is the most extreme. Finding that out was a shock, that all was determined before hand, and explained all.
And thats just the start, a nail sticking up. Fekkered from the start in other ways, two, lets not go into that. Being a slow learner, at the start anyway, to find out that my learning style means i can get my head around anything. That my brains didnt fire up till late teens, some dont till there 30s, they wont teach you that at school.
Then theres no holding us, we become sponges. Its only when i got divorced that i decided to find out what went wrong, and by gum, its the best thing that ever happened to me. From thinking i was a first class jerk, and more, to being what others aspire too. Self acceptance, self love, being comfortable with myself. Who could ask for more. Living on earth is like living in a jar.
