If you had a year to live...

Tonight instead of studying, writing my essay, and preparing my presentation, I was moseying around on Facebook when I saw one of those Socialinterview.com posts on my newsfeed. It asked:

"If you had a year to live, what would you do?"

I read the girl's answer and continued to creep around, etc. But then I really started to think about the question. What would I actually do if I had one year to live? Of course my first inclinations were to travel and see the world, tell the people I love that I love them, and try to make some kind of difference in at least one person's life. Basics. But it also made me realize all of the things that I'm NOT doing that I wish I were. What are my reasons for holding back?  I don't have legitimate answers for most of them. It makes me question the way I'm living my life. We're all so focused on future events rather than what we have right now in the moment.

I have the horrible habit of postponing everything from homework to my feelings. I hold back the honesty that is due to people and to myself. It's taxing.

I need to stop caring about what might happen in certain situations.

Honesty, honesty, honesty.

I have to be honest with myself.

I'm not going to list how I would spend my year because there are personal components that I'm not ready to share yet.

But feel free to tell me what you would do!
