What will you do even if you are given 24 hours to live. For me I will be really at a loss what to do.

I think I better start thinking.

No one knows when his or her time will come... so why worry? Just try living a good and healthy life and be proud of your own actions. After all, you will have to account to your maker for it...oi vei!

I guess it is not about worrying rather than philosophical musings and also reminds us that time is precious and we should not squander it and make the best use out of the remaining time that we have on earth.

I agree.

But, what is the use to try to do some good at the very end when you where a complete jackass for most of your life? too little, too late... ROTFL...

I guess doing some good when you are almost to die is a little too late and too late but as the cliche goes: never late than never,

in my opinion, doing a little good at the end of your life cycle and in order to make points with your maker is just hypocritical. you had a lifetime to do good and you wasted it in self-serving and other negative stuff... so why now? you still going to hell... so bite the bullet, be a man or a woman. Of course, you can always show genuine repentance and your Maker will take that into account.

Up to this point I've really just been screwing around and kinda drifting through life, so I think if I was given 24 hours to live, first of all, I'd make my piece with my Maker, then with my family and friends, then I'd go for one last ride in my truck, eat one last rack of BBQ ribs, go home, lay down, and wait for the end, I know it sounds boring, but I'm not really a complicated person, no thrills, no frills
