Imagine what it would be like to have twenty-four hours left to live. A wave of emotions would drown you immediately. One of the biggest ones, of course, would be regret. Why didn't I do that, why didn't I stay there, why didn't I admit my feelings to so-and-so. Everyone has something, or somethings, they regret. That's normal human behavior.
I want to live every day like it's my last though. To love who I want, to laugh at what I please, and to smile at what makes me happy. Unfortunately, very few live by this motto. Some fear the wrath of a higher power because they're doing what they please, some fear that they might make the wrong decision, or some might be stingy with their belongings and refuse to risk them in any fashion. Some people might be as I am, yearning to live that way, but are unable to because people rely on them too much.
What would you do if you had a day to live? Truly, what would you do? Don't fool yourself & dream of big things. Let's be realistic, that's impossible. No one has that kind of money.
For me, I would spend that night writing everything I had ever wanted to say to people but never had the guts to on slips of paper. Every cent I owned, minues my funeral, would be put towards my debts. All of my furniture would be donated to charities, and so would my clothing. My death would be paid for and planned. Then I would drive to the first beautiful, scenic, peaceful area I could find, and, with the notes in my pockets, I would die as quietly as possible. An odd way to go I guess, but who cares.
Just wanted to add these thoughts to the vault.
After all, you never know what tomorrow has in store for you...

Freaky in some ways, but very good in others. Definitely a good motto to live by, I'll keep this in mind (: Thank you!
