that is not calming to me at all
Sorry. Do you know any really old, happy people well enough to talk to them about death? In my experience they’ve got a perspective that’s reassuring, but it does go in the same direction: you get to finally rest, etc.
I have my 84 year old grandparents, one of which has cancer, both are terrified, and the only positive notion is "At least I don't have to suffer any more."
