No, I wasn't ripping on you. Just reminded me of the cliche is all. Wasn't meant that way, sorry.
No need to apologize. I was just checking to be sure I was not somehow miscommunicating. This is something I am working on right now. I write in a conversational manner. Conversations often have holes in them which lead to misunderstandings. This problem is magnified when someone is communicating in writing. Writers misstate themselves and readers sometime read things into what is written.
I've seen a few people die during my lifetime. I have yet to see someone die happy as they say. Dying in your sleep is probably the easiest way to go. If you know you are dying, you fight like heck to stay alive....at least this has been my experience.
