I want to die after a lifetime of helping people, not in some flash and bang heroic death

Death is scary, I don't want to die. But I also don't want to live forever. It is my fervent hope that I will be able to live a long peaceful happy life, surrounded by people I love. I want to see my children, my grandchildren and my great-grandchildren grow up. <br><br>I want to be a good person and help people. I want a quiet life, and a quiet death. I want to die at home, in my own bed. In the morning, having woken up to see another day. I want to do this in my 80s or my 90s, having lived for a long time. I want to se the dawn, once more, and then go to sleep for the last time.<br><br>The only reason I'm bringing this up is that I just saw my friend die. He did it in the most bullshit and cliched way imaginable. He sacrificed himself to save a little girl. He threw himself between her and a bus, and it killed him. Don't get me wrong, he's a hero, but I don't want to be a hero. I want to live a happy, long boring life. I want to help people, but I want to live. I don't want to die saving someone, I want to just die. <br><br>I don't know how to explain this. I don't know what to call it. I don't want to die for anything. I want to live, and die of old age. Nothing else. I want to die in peace after a long life of helping people, not in flash and bang heroic death.
