If Tomorrow was our last day on Earth....


Okay, as title suggests : If Tomorrow was our last day on Earth (Human Race), how would you spend it ?

Have a good long think about your answer before typing.

But remember, you can always be fun with your answers too

I'd call my mom and brothers, and spend time with my hubby...I'd try to make sure that I got everything said that I never did to all the people in my life that I love.

skillefer - I'd do the same thing. Spend time with my fiance and talk to my family and close friends. Say the things that need to be said... I'd spend some time at my church too. And I'd eat a whole bucket of smarties.

I would finally live my dream, even if it was only for a day.

I would get a Harley and ride and ride and ride, after that I might find a little bit of time for my family, but Harley first.

If I KNEW that tomorrow was my last day on earth???

I would say my peace with everyone and God, surround myself with loved ones, hold my son as close to me as possible, and continuously pop Ativan to stop the string of status seizures that would no-doubt erupt.

if tommorow was my last day on earth i would live it the way i live every other day. you have to live everyday as it it was your last ....including me telling the friends i may speak to in passing i love them my mum brother and sister and giving my boyfriend a kiss just before i go to sleep.

I'll be no closer tommorow to fufilling my life completly so why try and make myself into something im not even if my dream was to be a spacewomen.
so...
1. tell every ass h*le they are a f*cking d*ck but i love them
2. tell all my friends, they made me who i am
3. quit work,college,basically quit life before it quits on me.
4. and make sure i pull a funny face when i die to give a few people giggles whilst at my funeral(if i have an open casket)

I would FINALLY have a big glass of really good red wine, make chocolate chip cookies and eat my husband's kick-ass French toast.
And then cuddle up on the couch with my husband, kids and dog.

I would rise with the sunshine and spent the day
in prayer and with the Lord; then fishing for the
last time; and then with my family - head out to
spend the entire day just going wild, and having
fun! Then heading out for my last dinner - steak
and lobster, and head out to the beach for the
last time; then say goodbye to everyone and
mount on the horse, riding bareback, and just
keep riding past the sunset spending time with
the Lord for the beautiful day until I am no more.
I do not want to ever be found, but to remain
on my own Florida wild-lands.

It would not be much different than I do now. I hug my children and tell them they are the love of my life, I keep my friends close, and I do things I like to do, such as these message boards.

I live knowing there will come a day I do not wake up. Each day is a gift. I just want to make sure my family will be cared for.

I think it's interesting to see how peoples beliefs and thoughts make them react to such a harsh question. Put it this way, I put this on a NON-Epilepsy forum, and the majority of people who responded were more interested in spending the day stealing cars and anihilating all their enemies".

Just goes to prove how more grounded and sensible people with seizure's are

PS. without meaning to sound morbid, but only one person knows when that time will be <pointing upwards> - and it may not be THAT far ahead of time....so make sure you're living every day as your last, cuz one day you're gonna be right

Last day?

Same as every day - keep the peace - make phone calls -

I would like to go and eat one time at RED LOBSTER and eat all the yummy foods I can't with diabetes -

make sweet love with my spouse -

hug and play with my cat -

go outside and talk to the Lord -

call my health surrogate and tell hime to get things ready -

talk to Mom and Dad and my kids (if my kids would take the calls) -

make a final blog on myspace -

make a final farewell on here -

call my pastor -

call my childhood friend -

call my family that nobody knows who they are -

call old friends -

put on some music -

probably cry tears (goodbye) and tears (hello) -

I'd then, lay down and remember horsebackriding - swimming - my babies -running - driving - the mountains - and eventually go to sleep.

Then, wake up on the other side of the "door" as I believe we do in death - the body dies kerputt, but the spirit/soul/person of the person lives on.

Then, I'd talk the ears off of everyone in heaven for eternity!!! lol!!

I wouldn't care if tomorrow was the last day on earth. I wouldn't care if today was the last day on earth. I also wouldn't care if this was the last hour,minute or seconds on earth. I just don't care.

I'd gather my family, fly to Austin, eat bratwurst, drink beer, and listen to Speber jam.

I would spend quality time with my son Patrick and get to know my daughter-in-law Tammi better. Meet my oldest son(I relinquished him for adoption when I was 17 and am in reunion with him now) face to face for the first time. Then I would go out to a 5 star restaurant with my best friend, partner and occasional conscience Michael and shop till I drop!

Peaceful Hugs,
Rose
