If Today Was Your Last Day?

If today were my last day...

Hmmmm, maybe it's because I am so tired right now but I had a big ol' paragraph written out and began tearing up. Interestingly enough I don't have issue with death, never have, but right now the thought of leaving those I love dearly (especially my Spritz) just didn't set well for me.

Maybe another time I'll play along but for now I'd like to think that we have today. And really, if every day was thought of as "the first day," then every day could be celebrated and appreciated as new beginnings instead of anticipating and worrying about the end...

I would wanna spend it with my Mom. I love her so much she is such a wonderful person. I would thank her for being a great parent and accepting me and loving me no matter what. I love you Mom.

I wouldn't change a thing. I have been living day to day for what seems like a long time now that if it was my last day, I'd be ok with it. Yes, there are things I wanted to do and see before that last day, but I think you get to a certain age and make peace with whatever it is you have or haven't done, can or can't do. I'd say good bye to loved ones and ask for them to find homes for my rescues. Lastly, when I'm gone, just cremate me and take my ashes to a happy place.
