How can a human do it. He/she can die anytime in his/her life. A human may not make it to the next day. A human may not make it to the next hour or minute.
What should a human do in his/her life?
What would you do?

Appreciate Life, your friends, your favorite things, and that you have a purpose. Choose what you think about and give unselfishly. Have awareness. Enjoy the ride.

I try not to think about it.Some things i do is go ahead and do something i always wanted to do even if i cant afford it.I spend lots of time with my kids.I stop and look around and thank God that i have another day on earth.Every day i try to get something good out of it,whether its a smile from someone i dont know or just helping the neighbor work on the house.Just realize that life can be short so live it the best you can .These days evryone is in a hurry to get some where they dont wanna be,so i slow it down and turn around to check out the deer in the woods or the hawks soaring in the sky.Theres a great poem by erma bombeck i believe about how if she had it to do over she would entertain friends even if the house was a mess,and more of the same .I believe it was written as she was dying.I live for today and think about tomorow.

Use the knowledge to gage your decisions, actions and reactions by.... For instance:
Be frustrated and angry in slow traffic or use the time to enjoy the music on the radio and for planning the rest of your day since no amount of frustration is going to make it go any faster and can only make you more likely to have an accident... possibly even one that would take away the rest of your days entirely.
Feel like tearing your hair out over your children being typical kids around the house... noisy, arguing, messy?... Or use that awareness of impending death to know that they are so precious that none of that is worth getting genuinely angry over. I mean, how would you feel about what they are doing right now if one were to die? Wouldn't mean much and you'd regret having been upset and harsh over so little if that was the last few minutes you had with that child now wouldn't it?
Just use the knowledge to put everything into perspective and make every moment, good and bad, more precious!

The best way to live is as if we will die tomorrow someone said I don't knw who.
Although there is uncertainity the chances of dyin the next second are pretty low very very low.
Many people take life for granted since that second never comes when they die. They just go on with their lives with their routines.
But if you can be aware of the fact that you may die anytime i mean really aware of who death means nothingness then u can appreciate life.
SO Live ur life to the fullest

IF you live your life in fear than you are not "living."
Since the future in unknown live the best way you know how.
I know when I leave the house to go to work I tell all my family members I love them. I don't know if I will come home that night or not. But, on the other hand if you spend you whole being afraid, what if you live to 80? You've wasted a lot of time.

Well, I'm not sure how each person does it, but my way is simple. Yeah, I don't know when I am going to fall over and never get up so I live my life how I want to. I do things for me, not for other people. I be who I want to be. I live every day like its my last, I am generally happy and I don't let alot of things get me down. I don't fear doing things that someone else will say "I'm to scared to do this today...maybe tomarrow?

Don't think like this. Instead live life for the present. Yesterday is the past. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is the present, that's why you should treat it as gift!

Death is the eventuality of us all. Why allow it to preoccupy the short time we have here. Enjoy it and live life to the fullest and don't worry about the inevitable. Nothing wastes more time than worrying.

I take life one day at a time.......no regrets, no promises......my kid and grandkids know that I love them and if I die tomorrow, so be it. I just don't intend to dwell on all the negative things in life. Ain't got time for that!!!

I can't die, because then insurance would have to pay out. They don't like that. Also, I never sent thank you notes for my high school graduation gifts, and I've lost the addresses.
