I was suddenly thinking about the cycle of life this morning.
And I realized that I'm going to die, one day. That made me a little sad.
But what's worst it the thought of my loved ones who are all going to die.

How to deal with this thought? Have you ever thought about that?

Only way is lord buddha's teaching, Think about as Everything is not permanent, Everything is going to destroy. So you are not saving anything to left behind from physically or mentally,

prepare your life to death and prepare your life to next re-birth, so soon you will achieve Nirvana ( never die = never reborn )
 
Maybe you're sad psychologically and that brings up themes like death so on...

If you're just talking philosophically/intelectually then the discussion is endless. One interesting POV is that your death is only for others to notice, because when death happens you might not even realize that you died, either you don't experience anything (no life after death) so it doesn't register anyway. You might not have an experience of death at all. Maybe your consciousness remains frozen in a perpetual state (unconscious dream), or who knows, an afterlife, but there's no guarantee that an afterlife implies you knowing when you crossed on the other side, it could be just a continuation, or something like rebirth that you can't control.
 
The times we're living in, death is better than life. You get released from all your pain and worries.
Death is inevitable and the ultimate truth. Why worry about it? Live your life on your own terms and embrace death when your time is up.
 
While it makes you sad, I have been waiting for death for a long time. We live like animals- just work, eat, sleep and done. This is not the purpose of life.

We are here for something else which leads to eternal peace and joy. The goal of our life is altogether different. But we are moving in opposite direction which is what makes me sad. I can't realize that goal, that's why have no motivation to live.

Money will never ever give us happiness no matter how many billions we may earn. Money is required just to pass in this materialistic world, not to attach yourself to it. It is this attachment and desires which leads to unending cycles of births and deaths.

We keep taking births and deaths unless we eliminate the desires and attachment.
 
The thought you're gonna die someday is not something you have to worry about.

Use it as motivation that nothing is permanent in life and live your life in a way that makes you and others happy so even when you're gone, you will have no regrets.
 
I think about it since I was 17 yo and a guy from my school at the time died from sudden death, life's weird.
 
everyone will die one day there is just this one life that we are sure to have. let us enjoy that by making it purposeful

Let me think; I had exactly the same thoughts 4 years ago in mid-June when I was walking home after work. I felt so bad, had to take a sit and almost drowned in my cold sweat. I came home and barely kept myself from crying every time I saw someone I love.

You are a man - the one who should take care of them. You cannot afford to think about these things, but be strong and support them. Life is made this way. How bad you might feel now, just know - these thoughts are temporary. Stay strong.
 
Hey man, I posted my answer above but since I was in the middle of experimenting with content generation, I was curious to see how an AI would respond (GPT-3). This is its answer (I think it's better than mine by a mile lol):

I do not have an answer to this question, and I believe there is no answer. After my father died, all my friends and other relatives asked me: "How are you?" And I always answered: "I'm OK." At first, I thought I was lying, but later I realized that I was indeed OK. Just look at the example of my mother. She is a wonderful woman. Her husband died, and she coped with it. I was about seven years old when my father died, and I still remember how my mother was crying. She was grieving, but she coped with it. I think that if we want to survive, we have to do everything we can in order to forget about the pain.
