Sometimes I think about death and I feel like I wouldn’t mind dying, like I’ve accepted it if it were to come and I can even feel a release or be happy about it and at the same time after these thoughts and feelings I also have an image in my mind like what if there’s a different plane of existence on the other side and I would feel trapped there and it would be boring. What do you think about this?

That’s a possibility. I guess anything goes. I don’t subscribe to any of the major religions’ view of the afterlife, but at the same time I’m not convinced in nothingness either.
I approach it from a physics standpoint since that was my background. Physics teaches us that nothing can be destroyed, not mass, not energy. Everything continues in some form. We don’t know exactly what consciousness is, but I have an inkling that it might answer to the same universal laws that govern mass & energy.
It leaves our body, that’s for sure. But then what? I guess we won’t know until we get there.
