If you died today what are you leaving behind? I don’t care if you’re Christian or Atheist, I don’t care if you believe in the afterlife or reincarnation. I’m not asking what happens after you die; I’m asking what you have done with your life. Would you be satisfied with what you have accomplished? There are so many questions that could be asked. Questions that would never cross your mind until someone you love dies or you have a traumatic experience.
I would have a lot of regrets. I haven’t loved as strong as I could, I haven’t changed anyone’s life for the better, and I haven’t done half of what I want to. So many things would be left unfinished; so many words would be left unsaid. Not to mention all the secrets that would come out…Oh the secrets.
I would like to say “from this day forward I will live with no regrets, I will live like I may die tomorrow”. It wouldn’t be true though. I might make little changes but nothing significant, nothing noticeable. I’ll just keep hoping that I don’t die until I’ve had the chance to do everything I’ve wanted to do and correct my mistakes. If not, then that’s what happens. Its life and nobody gets out alive anyway.
