One More Day to Live

If I only had one more day to live I would do the following things.

Maybe skydive even though I am scared of heights.
Ride the biggest RollarCoaster ever even though I hate them.
Set foot in two states at once.
Bury letters about myself in a place where they will be found.
Donate money to a charity.
Spend time with my family.
Swim with the sharks... even though I'd be scared.
Climb a huge mountain. Eh heights.
Eat a whole cheesecake by myself.
Watch the sunrise and set with the people I love by my side.
Write letters to all my family to be distributed when I am gone.
Eat tons of ice cream.
Visit a museum.
Go to a baseball game.

Well there is a lot on this schedule. I would most definitely use all 24 hours of the day. I would have to fulfill all my dreams and goals in that one day. I can't imagine the rush. I would never want the day to end. Well of course nobody would. I sure do know that I would make the most of the time I was given and I would do everything I could to make myself happy. I am a very giving person but with one day left you have to do what you desire.

I don't think that for one I'd want to know if it was my last day to live. But, other than that, I wouldn't do anything special if it was my last day to live. I would live it like any other day and surround myself with those that really do love me. People aren't going to remember that one time you rode a roller coaster when they think about your legacy, they're going to think about the impact you personally had on them, how much you cared and the time you spent with them. Bottom line, you shouldn't need all those special things to fulfill you, appreciate the simple things in life.

Do you find it odd that you are not as strong as you once thought?

Live every day as if it were your last day and love every moment to its fullest. Life is a beautiful gift and should never, not even for one second, be taken advantage of, because you'll never get that second back.
