24 hours. When you think about it, that seems so short. It really is though, because life is passing us by. I mean, just yesterday, I was a senior in high school... the day before that? Making painted bread in kindergarten.
If I knew I had 24 hours left to live, I'd make sure I said goodbye to those who mean the most. Those who actually would give a damn, and want that final closure. I'd make sure my pets were taken care of, my bills settled, and things written out. I'd forgive those people who need to be forgiven.
Then? I'd head out to a place I find the most peace at. I'd take a good book, a nice bottle of wine, and loose myself in the peace and tranquility of the final moments. I'd make peace with myself and simply be done.
