Tomorrow I might die, maybe in the next minute today. Then that means people around me might have lost a best friend, a sister, a daughter or a student less at school. I heard about someone who was very young die of a heart failure by a bridge - he was perfectly normal; walking outside, going to his friend's house like any other day - who knows? - then walking over the bridge by Cathall Centre he had a heart failure and died. Just like that.. Dead. What was he thinking when he lived his last second? His mum? His family? His girlfriend?
Everybody I ever knew, had said stuff about what they wanted to be in the future; a doctor, an engineer or a lawyer. Everybody had their dream, that guy probably had a dream too. I mean, he didn't plan to die then, he probably didn't want to - but he had no choice?
What regrets do you think he had when he realised, "This is it - I'm gonna die" ? Maybe in the past he had done wrong and wanted to correct himself but thought, "I'll do it later". If he had thought that later wasn't quick enough, it should have been soon. This is just a mere example but I know loads of people have had thoughts like these before - I know I have. Also, I'm not implying that guy had thought this or had any regrets, for all I know he could've been the best guy ever considering I've never met him, he is just another example of an unlucky man who lost his future..
To be honest, I don't want to end up like him. I even have a bucket list - there are things I want to do and see. I want to grow-up and feel how it feels like to be old even though I know it sucks. But maybe that's not my fate.. Maybe that is't yours either.. Who knows? If you're religious you would agree with me and say "God knows" but if you're an atheist you might exclaim, "Nobody does". And for now nobody does yes it's true, sorry if that hurt you. You can't knock at God's door and ask this question and if there isn't anybody else - nobody knows.
What I want to say is simple. Make everyday worth it. You want to say sorry, say sorry. You want to tell the truth, say the truth. Life is too short even if you live till 100, life is too short so there isn't time for you to lie to others, build a wall so no-one can get to you or for you to live in guilt and there isn't time to hate. Learn to forgive and say "Sorry, that was my fault". But if it isn't your fault learn to stand up for yourself and tell them they're wrong and why.
I just want people to know time doesn't wait for you, you have to use your time wisely.
