If this was your last day on Earth, what would you do?

Question

As for me, I'll pack my bags and I'm off to Mars. Well assuming we're gonna live on Mars someday.....

:P

Anyway if this was my last day, I'd spend it at the park, with the breeze and all under the shade.

What would you do?

Answer 1

I would begin the day watching the following movie again:
Last Night (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0156729/)

Then I would gather my family together and reminisce the joys and sadness of our lives, while focusing upon the rewards to come in the afterlife, all with the hope that we would be found worthy in our faith and works when judged by God.

We would probably have some of the best meals we had ever had, too. Best of all, I would not have to clean up the dinner table afterwards.

Finally, I would spend my last moments praying as I do at the end of each day.

I speak to God just as I write these words to you now. I have a conversation with Him each day. My prayers are conversations that follow a pattern. I start every prayer with the following: "Most merciful God, not my will, but yours be done." I repeat that phrase often during my prayers. Sometimes I will do so for tens of times just to quiet my mind and make it open to hearing from my Creator.

I use the following pattern in all my prayers and always see them answered: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, and Supplication. See the links below for more information. (acronym: ACTS)

At the end of my life I know that my journey is just beginning. How anyone can spend their lives thinking that this world, with its banal evil and suffering is all that there is will become a poignant epitaph for the unbeliever on this day.

Answer 2

Mars sounds like an idea! I'd spend it with family and friends, telling everyone I loved them and appreciated them one last time, so they knew it.

Another thing I'd probably do is spend some time out in the woods, the beach to see the sunset, or the park, just watching the world go by for a bit, which would help me remember that I'm only a part of what goes on in the world, but that each part is important.

Answer 3

Thank God for the time here He gave me, look forward to seeing God and spending eternity with Him while trying to reach out one last time to the lost souls who still had a chance to know that they too could choose to believe in and follow Jesus and go where I'm going to Heaven for eternity.

Answer 4

Your first concern should be about the next stage of your saga: That is: How would you like to be buried? You will be amazed in the various way different faith handle the dead people. So explore all faiths and see how each one does it. It will make you wonder why one preaches as such. Hopefully, it will lead you to the right message from the right religion.

Answer 5

I'd settle all my debts Adea.. A man may be prevented from heaven for a slight debt...

I'll ask all those whom I hurt or might have hurt one day to forgive me.

I'll tell My family that I'm travelling to china, so they wont be sad for my departure.

I'll tell you here on Answers that: "I'm leaving, want anything from there?"

Answer 6

I'd grab the nearest Qur'an and start reading.

(not that I don't do that on the other days, though).

I remember reading, and hearing that the most honorable way to die is either in your Sujood, or reading the Qur'an, so I'll stick to it until my soul aparts my body.

Just my thought.


Peace.

Answer 7

Depends on how exactly I was going to die but...

Go canoing and perhaps fishing. I'd take a bottle of mead with me and pack a delicious lunch for a picnic. I would definitely spend the day out in Nature.

Answer 8

Wow, the alternative for the Christian is stunning. I would tell those around me so long and I would see them in Heaven.
I Cr 13;8a

Answer 9

Party.

Answer 10

Tell my boyfriend how much I love him and spend the rest of the day praying with him.
