Are there any things that you would not do to preserve/extend your own life? Is there a moral boundary that you would not overstep in order to stay alive? If so then what? and what would be your reasons? Please explain.

I don't think everybody understands what I'm getting at. In other words what I mean is would you: Kill somebody else, steal, go against your convictions, violate a command from god etc etc etc to preserve your life? or would you not cross that boundary and instead die?

While life is very precious and I don't believe anyone should give it up. If it would cause you to do something that would break God's law then it would be wrong to try to preserve it.
Some people don't realize that every living thing values it's life as much as you do.
Our most important thing that we have is our relationship with God if the whole word disappoints us. Jehovah is always there for us. Shell

I don't care to extend my life. If anything people would think I'm trying to make it go by faster. Drugs, doing insane crap like jumping off of a tree and breaking a leg. I like to live the thrilling/adventurous life, but if there is a thought that pops up into my head saying "hey dumb-*** you could really die from this!" I'll back off and look for something else.
Oh, I'm really afraid of dark water, which means the water just might be pretty deep! I would not swim in water that deep! That's a boundry I wouldn't step over.

If my Creator calls me, I am ready. Any day is a good day to die. This body I live in is only meat and electricity. Why would I want to preserve it?
I get what time on this earth that is given to me. Nothing more, nothing less. I am at peace with all around me.

You are ultimately talking about a living will/DNR. DNR stands for do not rescusitate. A living will is something people fill out and sign stating exactly what they do and do not want regarding the preservation of their lives should they wind up in a coma. As for me, pull the plug after 72hours. And I want to be a DNR.

I would not be happy benefiting from someone else misfortune,
so I would have to accept my fate and what ever befalls me.
What about you?

When your number is up, you go, simple as. They say we go to better things, so why try to stop it?
