Only one thing is certain in life and that is death. Imagine you’re on your death bed. You’re laying in the hospital and you know that you aren’t going to get a tomorrow. As you look back on your life do you smile? Or do you have a lot of regrets? Do you wish you would’ve been more daring? Do you wish you would’ve quit that that job you fucking hated and started that business you always dreamed of but we’re too scared to try? Do you wish you would’ve taken better care of your body? Do you wish you would’ve worked less and spent more time with those you love? Do you wish you would’ve actually read that pile of books on your nightstand? Do you wish you would’ve gone back to school and gotten your dream job? Do you wish you would’ve taught your kids everything you were too busy to do? Do you wish you would’ve traveled more and seen the world? Who would you have by your side or who would you want there with you? Do you wish you would’ve forgiven that family member for that petty argument? Do you wish you would’ve kept in contact with your old friends? Do you wish you would’ve gone to more family reunions? Could you have been more kind? Could you have been more understanding? Could you have been more forgiving? Could you have been more honest? When they read your eulogy what are they going to say? Did you live your life to its fullest or did you merely get by? If you were going to meet your maker today would you be proud to show them everything you’d done in your life? If not, it’s time to consider making some serious changes. Tomorrow is never guaranteed, the only thing certain in life is death and it can come so unexpectedly. So, don’t wait for tomorrow, don’t wait until new years, don’t wait for the time to be right to start. Start right now. Start living a life that you’re proud of. There’s no time like the present.

Quite right. Your deep reflections mirror exactly what has been hidden from us. Perhaps we would have been better off with the knowledge of what awaits us. But even that would have ruined our natural paths. Wow! I am dunno.
