In my post there is both literal and non-literal statements, the non-literal are very broad and general.
"I do not think about death too much" means That I live my life with out thought of the day that is going to end.(Honestly no one live with the thought of dying the next day or today.)
"I live and fight for my life, knowing that one day I will die." : That is a non-literal, it is very general, it does not have to involve a life or death situation. In life there are many factors playing against us, probabilities and whatnot.
Example:
Have you ever gone hiking on a place that is high and you may fall. Most of the time you are not thinking that you may fall and hurt/kill yourself, to prove this further, you take a wrong step, your body instantly tries to hold on to something or tries to regain it's balance, it is not in the moment that you are thinking "Oh shit I'm going to die!", but instead, you think on how to grasp the situation you are in, once you survive, that's when you think, "I could have died."
Taffy, you are a critical thinker, you tried to apply what I said in different instances, this means that you do not have a "One Way" form of thinking, there are many times that when I write/say stuff that are mixed up like that post, I do this to stimulate the brain, nothing is better than to improve yourself, there are many that will not understand, because of their 2 dimensional way of thinking.
