If I knew that I only had 24 hours to live...well, I think I'd start by grabbing a blank canvas and create some sort of visual poetry to explain my life and death and whatever else I felt it important that people know about me. Then, I'd get online and send a mass good-bye email to all my buddies. After that, I think I'd go to some second-hand store and buy a bunch of crazy clothes and wear them to school. I'd smile and say hi to everyone... And I would eat nothing but ice cream all day. And I'd chase butterflies. And plant a garden somewhere, so that something would still be growing after I was gone. I'd make sure to hug all my friends and tell them how much I love them. Even the people who I don't talk to often...those are the ones I'd make sure to tell how much they've impacted my life. I would probably scream a lot- but happy screams, and be overdramatic. And then, I'd cut half of my classes, just to see what it feels like to do that- and I'd force all my friends to cut with me. We could go to some kind of ice cream shop (to keep with my ice-cream diet.) I guess I'd write some sort of will towards the end. And then I would buy candy for all the kids at the elementary school. Cuz when you're in elementary school, there's almost nothing better than getting candy. Yup. I'd probably go around screaming "Jesus loves you!" and people would probably start to think I was crazy...but hey, if you only have 24 hours, you're allowed to be crazy. And then, I'd probably die in the 23rd hour due to extreme exhaustion.

Well, I wouldn't do anything crazy. I'd just sort of absorb the time. Take a long bath, eat something I haven't had in a while, play my favorite songs over and over again. Little things like that. As for notifying others, I'd probably just leave a letter for close friends and family to find whenever. "I had 24 hours to live, I enjoyed them by doing things that make me happy. I love you all, bye."

Wow since I don't have a job, money or life insurance I wouldn't tell my family or friends. I wouldn't want then to bear the burden of having to pay for my funeral expenses. I would tell all my friends and family I love them. Hug and kiss everyone I could. Then secretly sneak off with my last remaining dollars. (which isn't much) After I'm gone I would put in the mail a letter to my mother explaining everything. Appologizing to all for my departure and leaving in such a way. I wouldn't be scared to die alone. I have the Lord with me. I know it sounds like a ******* up way to do it. I don't have anything really to leave behind. I don't have any kids and I'm unmarried so my social security couldn't go to my family. Which sucks.

I live my life as i want to now, i speak to the people i want to i do the things i want to (except working allot) not much else would change
I hope I would tell the important people how much i care for them, but to be honest i expect i would spend the first of those precious few hours freaking out about my impending doom
Comedian Jethro usually finishes by saying "live every day as if it's your last... one day you will be right" I suppose he has a point there.

I would tell you that I go to a place prepared for me of my Father which is in heaven, so do not cry nor sorow because I was sent to tell you about Christ Jesus and as my time has come for me to depart, my wish is for you to recieve Jesus as your Lord and receive His Holy Spirit with power from on high to do the work now that is still unfinished and Christ will anoint you with the same anointing as He did with King David of Israel and he will prepare you to rule and reign with Him and those in whom you come into contact God will use you to anoint them also as true kings of Christ. This is what I would do if I only had 24 hours or 20 years left. You want to be Christ's king then call upon him in faith and receive His anointing and He will give you a sign that he is doing this as you continue with those who also have been anointed by Christ..

I would notify no-one, so that I get an impression of them that is genuine. I would not do anything out of the ordinary, b/c to do that would be untrue to myself!!!!

I would call everyone I know or speak to them in person if possible and tell them how much they meant to me and talk about funny stories between us and help them be at peace with me leaving.

I would buy many bottles of jameson(irish whiskey). get all my friends family and boyfriend together. And we would just dance sing and pray the night away. Laughing all the way.

I hope that I would do nothing different--that is to say that I hope that I'm living each day to the fullest.
Now in reality...
