i could die today / tomorrow


I once heard or read a story about someone asking a terminal patient: what is it like to know that every second is bringing you closer to death? the patient replied, asking: what is it like to pretend you don't know it too?

Aaand on that happy note, my to-do list for life below.

10 Be thankful for good health. And upkeep it.
9 Live and let live (don't hate, try not to judge and be nice to people as far as possible)
8 Don't waste time. Make each day count.
7 Don't live with regrets. You'd only die with them and what's the point in that?
6 Enjoy sunrises and sunsets. Taking them for granted makes us forget that days are scarce.
5 Show the people you love that you do. Tomorrow could be the day you never have the chance again
4 Spend your money. Sure be smart about it (like maybe buy insurance and save up for things you want), but spend it. Money can do good and there's no point in being rich while dead.
3 Keep trying to be better. Become the best person that you could be. See more things, learn better things. Keep good company.
2 Drink good coffee (or whatever choice of beverage) - life's short, don't waste it gulping down gunk.
1 Pray. For strength, for courage, for guidance, for help, for anything, for everything. To the only one who never fails to listen.
