Ask yourself, if you died right now - what would you wish you had done with your life? Whatever the answer is, make sure you achieve that thing when you get the opportunity. If you want to try your hand at bungee jumping before you die, go and book it now - before you're too old. If you want to swim with dolphins - go and do that. Don't live wishing and wanting and then die without ever achieving what you want. Don't spend your life scrimping and saving because you could be hit by a bus tomorrow.
When you die do you want to die and be forgotten or do you want your memory to live on and know you've made a difference to the world we live in? I want to make a difference, to change the lives of others for many years to come. Be creative, express yourself and make sure of one thing - that when you die, you die fulfilled.

Some people say the glass is half empty, some others say the glass is half full. I say get me another damn drink! AND QUICKLY! Before I start getting mean and terse!
And by living your life, you don't have to achive all your dreams, its enough to have them.. all you have to do is feel emotion.

I'm guessing that's a quote off somewhere, because I've heard exactly the same. It's become with of those cheesy comments.

Why is there a serious worry about where you go?
One dies, one decomposes........
You are then part of the Earth, in a very real sense.
Beleive what you will about the soul.

Reminds me of Pay It Forward. That was tacky, but it could be possible if people weren't so afraid.
Whats not to look forward to?
I would not want to yet. I would want to marry, travel, knowm faith better and do the things we all want to do. I especially want to make a difference in peoples lives.
To think we are all dying in a sense is true. But also, we are all living. Death is a very strange thing and I am only just beginning to understand it.
We are all wrapped up in life that we often forget what amazing things we have. Sometimes we are so busy we forget to look around us and see the good things instead of the bad. I know sometimes I have been so self indulgent and feeled with the stresses from today but when I look around and see the beauty of life I am feeled with a sense of joy.
Have you ever looked across a meadow or lake and thought 'wow'??? Have you ever seen a child do something so silly you laugh? have you ever been in love and had the feeling of not ever wanting to be anyone else but by their side?
We are all dying but we are all alive. Right now, there is so much good we cannot see because we take life for granted.
Saturday - my grandad died. He was 78 and half years old. Now he is not in pain as he was suffering with brain cancer for some time and seeing him in that state was heartbreaking. I am sad he wont be there to see me on my wedding day. In a couple of months I will have my eighteenth birthday and i love him very very much and miss him more than words can explain.
But do you know what this makes me feel? happy I am alive. He had it hard, he was ill but he understood and respected life for what it was and loved it. I want to try to recognise the beauty of life and the great that can come of it instead of the inevitable and what some would say is insignificant life that will end.
Life is amazing. Death is amazing. Treasure life and be happy you are alive becuase yes it happens to all of us. But if we enjoy it while we can - whats to loose?
Where do i go when i die or what happens...
:(
Hopefully i can be a ghost or re-incarnated as the next King of England!

Two words: Nuclear Device.
I will never swim with dolphins, I will never have a family and I will never be truely happy. The only good thing* we have to look forward to is the death at the end of it.*
*Providing its not comical and/or gruesome.
*Do NOT kill yourself. Good things come to those who wait.
