I think the problem with death is what the problem with life is - we have no way of what is going to happen next.
I find arguments about what happens after death intriguing and sometimes tiresome. We flat don't know.
We don't know what will happen one minute from now.
So I've become somewhat anticipatory about it all. Curious - what's gonna happen next. And since I've done my homework, learning through life experience, I trust myself enough to know that whatever it is that happens next I'll meet it and I'll learn something new.
How's that for pragmatism from an INFP?
It's released me from worry and anxiety.
I might add that I find it comforting to know that I don't have to walk alone. We're all on the same path on that one.
