when and how you are going to die?
Some sick people get an expiration date from their doctor and change their way of life.
Some criminals will find god before they hear the executioner's song.
I honestly don't know how I would answer this, maybe when but not how?
My husband's doctor gave him two years to live almost eight years ago. Our entire outlook on life changed with this news and I have never loved him more as time with him has become more and more precious.
so . . . just curious
fuck 'em if they can't take a joke

    that is probably a very tough question for anyone to answer. I'd say no. I'm trying my hardest to live each day the best I can anyway. Just wish that I could ditch the 9to5 and find a way to travel and experience more things while I'm still young.

    You already have that "live each day the best you can" attitude.
    That's wonderful, for you and those you love.
    great outlook on life

    I think I would. There are some things I would like to do before I leave but obviously I would like to out live family members so they would not have to deal with my loss nor would I tell them if I was given a date before their time.

    I think I would. I nearly escaped death this past February in a car accident, and it's changed my outlook on everything. I'm not afraid of death anymore, and when I'm back to walking and running around, I'll make sure I waste no time ever again.

    My God, I'd swear I could've wrote this post. I feel the exact same way.

    Ultimately, I think I'd say no.
