I would , rather , live everyday as though I was born just a little earlier. The mentality in both the cases will be completely different!.
As a "new Born" I will have positive approach and hope to live my life. But , if I am going to be thinking all the time that I would die any time, I feel my thinking will not be free .

Metaphorically speaking, yes, we should live our lives as if there were our last because life's too short to waste time...but we don't realize it, until it is too late and after we all have regrets...why didn't I do it last week or month or year? why? that's the question we are all asking ourselves.. There's an other quote that says: You don't realize you have something until you lose it... so don't waste time...try always to do something for your future....and just think a little bit... -everything you do you do it to reach a dream, right? But if you just stay so and do nothing all day, your dream won't come true from itself....so that's what the quote signifies... that life is too short...and that we should do everything what stands in our power...that when the day comes we can say....I did everything I ever dreamed of, so I can die now in peace.
I'm sorry if there are mistakes but I'm still learning English...

Well that would be kind of depressing! I'd rather not spend each day crying & saying goodbye to my loved ones...I'd rather live every day as though it was my first. Full of wonder & excitement, ready for whatever comes. Living it to the fullest.
Because honestly, if you knew it was your last day, could you enjoy anything?! Wouldn't it be a bit of a downer? I don't think I'd enjoy skydiving or horseback riding or flying to Greece or any of the things on my lifetime to-do list if it was my last day.
I know what you're trying to say. It's true that we shouldn't procrastinate our dreams & goals. We have to seize the day. But still, I think what makes life fun is the illusion that we are invincible. You enjoy things more when you think you have all the time in the world.

I don't think that's entirely possible but the metaphor is good.I think you should love those who love you everyday like it's your last day because with people you never know so what ever time you have with those you love and love you should be cherished as if tomorrow may never come .For all we know.

It all depends on your perspective.
For all you know, right now as you have typed this question, you could fall and die. Sounds a bit outrageous, but, you never know.
Also, it tends to make people enjoy life a bit more. Do daring, and weird deeds. Mostly just for the heck of it.

No, because if you know it is your last day there is no way that you are going to show up at work, or pay your bills. Then when you wake up tomorrow you won't have a job and eventually you'll be homeless. I can't stand when people say that.

No but I enjoy sports that require your full concentration or it will be your last. Facing death makes life sweeter.

because it very easily could be....... and that thought will get you to really think about how you spend your time and what those you love really mean to you instead of just going thru the motions of yet another 24 hours. life is short and death is really really lng.....think about it
