If i had 24 hours left to live, I would not tell anyone that I am about to leave. I do not want to see the axiety in their eyes. I do not want to see them on the verge of crying and forcing themselves to fight back the tears. I want it to be like any other day. The only difference would be that I try to catch up with all who are close to me.
I would write a letter of apology explaining to everyone that I was sorry that I did not tell them that I knew i only had 24 hours left and I would explain my reasons for doing so.
I would try to call everyone and try to clear any misunderstanding if there were in the past. I would also ask them if they had anything they had wanted to tell me before but did not have the courage to. At the end of all the conversations, I would tell them that I love them dearly and tell them how important there were in my life.
All my pictures and works would be placed in folders on my computer. My blogs will be printed out and bound so that they will remember and relive the happy times. Should they run into any trouble, they would be able to turn to my blogs and find an answer there. Should they feel upset, they should know that I do understand what they are going through and I had been in a worser state and i hope that would make them feel better.
Private and personal letters would be written to the people who have helped me the most in my life.Mum, Dad, Uncle, Auntie and a few close friends who stood by big through times of trouble.
I would call my ex boyfriends and clear the air. Especially for the 3 main ones, I would tell them that I never stopped loving them and they always had a special place in my heart. I would also thank my crush for being there for me and for appearing when i needed him the most. And that those 6 years i had a crush on him, it was all worth it. Thanking him for looking out for me.
I would want to have a final barbeque gathering with everyone, take many pictures and get wasted. When everyone is drunk I would tell them of hint to them and then leave quietly.
