I cannot help to think that you mean "accept" death? Maybe not...but that is besides the point.

Last night, I had a dream that someone was coming at me, with the intent to harm or kill...and I took out my glock and tried to shoot, but it failed...so I kept backing up and it finally cocked, and I shot the guy seven times in the chest and head. However, I felt nothing...no remorse, anything...I probably knew it was a dream.

Anyway, I think that the gun not working is symbolic of me wondering if the situation came to be, would I be able to actually pull the trigger on a human? I hope to never have to make that decision.

I have had the underwater dreams too. It's kinda cool, even when I am dreaming I am thinking ''WTF?'', ''I can breathe under water, this ain't normal''. Then I wake up and think again ''WTF?''.

well ,thank you all for the replys ,i think the moral to this is sipmly , that killing is somthing i do not want to have to experience ,and as far as dieing man i know i have to exsept it at some point ,but everytime i see somone dieing on the internet ,i noticed i get that same bad feeling ,even when my mother died i got that feeling i wonder what this dark feeling is ,strange

there's nothing "special" or "divine" about killing someone or dying. All it is, is what you make it to be. I'm sure if you killed someone you would either a) kill yourself, b) your brain proves itself to be a survivalist and just adapt by rationalisation, or c) not care. Morality is perceptive, and i'm sure that you place so much a feeling of "special" to death or killing due to societal programming.

Don't sweat it man.

I don't think so! The OP didn't say killing was 'special'. It was the feeling of sacrificing himself for a greater cause and accepting his own death in honor of saving others.
