If you knew that you only had one day left to live, what would you do?

This is a question many have played with in their own mind I'm sure. Not a particularly happy one but it does bring to the surface the things we value most. Perhaps we might want to zone out get high and avoid the impending doom - perhaps the shock would send you spiralling. But if we could forget the leaving and the sadness bit and started doing - what would you do? And if these are the things you would and can do - will you do them tomorrow? What do you value and what are you capable of? And why in many instances do we put off what we would most like to do?

If I only had ONE day left on earth, I would wake up at 0600 and tell my kids it was time to get up. I'd cook them breakfast and tell that that daddy wasn't going to go to work and that we were going to spend the WHOLE day together. I'd make breakfast and coffee before my wife woke up. I'd kiss her and tell her I love her and then I would spend the day with my family. We'd do little things like going to the swimming pool or playing board games or the hundreds of other things my kids beg me to do. I would put them to bed and sing them songs and I would kiss my wife as she fell asleep. Then I would write them all a letter telling them all the wondrous things I want them to do for me and that I wish I could be there to see it all. Then I would put on my Stetson and spurs...get nekid...and wait for 2400 hours.

Go skydiving, rocky mountain climbing, and attempt 2.7 seconds on bull named Fu Man Chu. I would love deeper and speak sweeter, and give forgiveness I was denying. I would also watch an eagle as it was flying.

SrA Edward Vong that song by Tim McGraw is one of my favorite country songs. And I envy you that you got here first with that response. Well said.

Kiss my wife (a bunch), hug my kids, ride my Harley, swim, and drink some beer; and do some shots... then repeat. I would also pray my thanks, and ask for forgiveness one last time.
