if someone told you you was going to die in 3 weeks what would you do?

Question

and why would you wait until your death was imminent before doing something you always wanted to do

Answer 1

Quit my job and have fun with the people I love, visit places never been and always wanted to.

Answer 2

Quit my job and retreat into my studio and try to make the greatest, most profound rock album for people to remember me by. Then I'd post it to a MySpace page and drive my car off the Grand Canyon or something newsworthy like that in order to get publicity so people will check it out just out of morbid curiosity.

Why would I wait till my death? I'm a chronic procrastinator, so the "dead"line would be just the motivation I need!

Answer 3

Firstly, I think people take for granted the time in which they have to live. I myself find myself saying "In four years time, I'm going to..." but how do I know, I will even be here?!

..I think people associate dieing with old-age far too much...and when they are still young they think they still have plenty of time. The truth is, most of the time..that's not the case! We have to live everyday as if its the last, as if there's no tomorrow!

Now to the primary question...I would probably take a holiday with my whole entire family to Fiji or somewhere..There we would have a nice relaxing break, some nice food, traditional music etc..

On my last night, we would have a bonfire. I would present them with a speech from me. I'd explain how I would like them to be happy and continue living as normal and re-assure them that I have done everything I wanted to do (lie).

Am I dieing painfully? I would prefer to die in my sleep but if there's the tiniest amount of pain involved..I'll overdose about 5 minutes before my 3 weeks is up! By doing that I could also chose what my last words were..they would probably be something like 'I love you everybody, smile for me, be strong'

Thank You! :-)

Answer 4

Die laughing! We are all destined to die---and then the judgement... It would be hard to change all the bad we've done in so short a time but make amends with those who you have harmed, cheated and abused. We should live each day as if it were our last so make nice tracks where you have walked in life. We never like the thought of dying

Answer 5

Run up all my credit cards to their maximum.

Which is also the answer to why I wouldn't do it until my death was imminent.

Answer 6

I'd just make sure I left some good memories for my loved ones and made sure they knew how much I loved them and appreciated everything they've done for me. You're so right why should we wait until it's too late you can never turn the clock back and it's never too late to try and make right anything you regret. We should all live for the day because thank God we never really know what's around the corner for us.

Answer 7

I would do what I am doing know, what I love the most! that is writing books! so I that way I can live a bit of cultural information to the people so my soul and mind will never die :)

Answer 8

Hire a very expensive and very fast sports car and get hundreds of speeding tickets. (Yes mr policeman, you would have to catch me first) Oh, and just behave very badly. lol.
I would wait until my imminent expiry, because I wouldnt dare do it otherwise.

Answer 9

i know that a lot of people would take the chance to do things that they would never do normally, but i would tell people that
1. i want to be treated normal
2. i would want to right any wrongs i had
3. read tons, see a ton of movies, learn as much as i can
4. keep a smile on when i plan my own funeral
5. try to be happy...

Answer 10

Spend all my savings on the people I love. Destroy the Westboro Baptist Church. Understand AI and try to preserve my mind so I can continue to work on theoretical physics.
