Are you afraid of death nor not?

Personally, I'm not too bothered with the idea that I will one day pass on from this world and ascend to the next plane of existence be it a void of absolute nothingness or the eternally glorious paradise (how the afterlife is commonly thought of) that so many people aspire to gain entry to. At least that's what I would have said had you asked me a couple years ago how I felt about dying. At about 19-years-old, I had an epiphany about what I wanted to do with my life and made plans to accomplish certain goals that require me to stay alive for quite a long while, so I guess you can say that my perspective of death has changed a bit since that point in time. Still though, I wouldn't say that I fear death at all. It would just be unfortunate now if I were to die before I was able to fully realize my dreams and goals for life. I'd also feel bad for those that would mourn my death. Well, that's a bit about me. My main question I wanted to ask was this: Are you or are you not afraid to die and why? What events in your life have shaped your current outlook on life and death?
