Bull named Fu manchu

When asked the question, "What if this were your last day to live?" the obvious answers are easy. Steal a car, rob a bank, spend as much money as you could in a 24 hour period, high jack a bar, make out with the nearest cougar, and run from the cops until your eventual death, most likely a firery blaze off a cliff. Like I said easy. The hard answer is skipping over the easy details and trying to decide who you would want to spend those last precious moments of life with. How do you decide the few people who will witness your demise when your life touches so many? What separates them from the rest? Why are they special? Does that mean the others don't mean as much to you or is it more of a proximity problem and the clock is ticking? Could go either way. Do you go the family oriented version and spend it with your parents? Would you tell them this is it for you? Or maybe just spend that extra time appreciating everything they've done for you and say an extra goodbye? You could pick a certain group of friends and go the same way, but then again it might mean a little more to them if you came out and said,"there will be no more after this." A third option would be to go stag and just hang out with a bunch of crazy strangers and leave a note for everyone to read, or leave it as a complete mystery and leave those who care an endless guessing game as to how that last day transpired.

Fourth Option.
Maybe instead of waiting for that last day to come we start treating each coming day with they same attitude as to who matters most in this world to us. Maybe save the robbing of banks and high speed chases for that actual last day because by that point, everyone that matters in your life will already know that you cared and appreciated the friendships and memories you were able to make. You won't have to wait and slam them all together at once. However, you can take the time you do have to reach out and say hi to those who matter, those you want to remember you as a good friend, son, daughter, man, person.
Fuck the cars.
Fuck the cougars.
Fuck the blaze of glory.

Appreciate it. Live for those who matter.
