If you discovered right now
that you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do?

I don't think I'd change too terribly much about my daily routine. I like to live without regret. Y'know, settle problems as they come. And yet, nowhere does that seem more difficult with the people you're closest to. People that you aren't terribly attached to are people you aren't terribly concerned with, making an admission of guilt/stupidity/shameful or shameless actions easier. The people you love are the people you trust with the more tender part of your personage; they know you a lot better and the fear is, if they want to hurt you, they know exactly how to do it. But because they are close, they also know why they don't want to hurt you.

Sometimes, if not a lot of the time, I'm actually terrified of letting people get close to me for the reason I just stated: I'm afraid of getting hurt. And then I get more scared because, for some reason, I'm more afraid of me hurting someone. I'll even lie awake at night wondering if I did do something wrong to someone--and I never talk to anyone about it because I'm always afraid I'm making a big deal out of nothing. Sometimes it's nothing, sometimes it's a major something. It's worse when I find out I did do something wrong, but it's too late to do anything to fix it.

So what am I saying with all this? Not quite sure, but hey, if I do something to upset you, let me know. I don't mind if you have a different opinion from me, just don't squish mine in the process of sharing yours. I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable or sad or mad, especially not at sweet little me. ^.^ Seriously, though, if you feel I need to be brought down a peg or if there's something you really think I need to hear, say it. Regret leads to anxiety and I'm a worrywart enough as it is.

If you only had 24 hours left to live, don't make them the busiest and most stressful ones. Like I always say, live every day as if it were your last, because you never know when it might just be.

No regrets. See you tomorrow. ^-^
