what would you do, if you know you have one more day to live?

just that one more.

the ability to now choose to do what really's the most important, most significant, most meaningful because you finally know there's an expiry date etched onto you.

i asked myself that question and i found out it was immensely difficult to decide on something, something that we can finally do to be contented enough to die.

most deaths come unprepared. of course, how would we even know we are dead when we are dead? but when somehow you are diagnosed, when a statement has be passed on to tell you that your body is giving way, you are slowly perishing from this world. then. will your very life change. for the better. for the worse? or does it even qualifies as a life when death looms so near.

there's so much things to do, to explore. and we all know that life's not eternal. given that choice, will love be amplified? things that didnt matter as much, words that didnt seem important at all, will they all now not be taken for granted? before you go, will you cherish your loved ones, the ones that made up every chapter of that life? will it even matter. i am sure when everything's coming to an end, when everything you have lived for slowly disappears, the importance of the people around us, the loss, the grief, the parting of ways, it will all be experienced. will you cherish your loved ones, i am sure its a definite yes for everyone.

and when its all over for you, you will still live on in someone's heart. but we know, by then, its all too late.

i asked someone randomly. that person told me it would be a good thing. because ppl will not be complacent. they would not take life for granted. and the world will be a much better place.

what would i do, if i got one more day? i will make sure i try to make them know that they matter to me, even till my deathbed, that they will still continue living on. and cherishing. and hopefully, i will still be there living on, not physically. but at least spiritually.

all of them.
