You have 48 hours left in your life...how would you spend those 48 hours?

The 1st day I would have a big party (probably a cookout, LOL) with all of my friends invited. We'd play silly games, eat bad food, and have ridiculous conversations.

The 2nd day I would spend with just my family. I would make sure they knew I loved them, and spend lots of time with them in my arms. We'd bake cookies, have a picnic, and just be together.

I would do what both Michelle and Rosie would do. I would gather family and say my goodbyes. I would give my will to my husband and son. And I would worry about my death a lot. I would wonder where I'm headed next.

I also would go get all my journals and autobiography that I wrote and shred them before anyone could actually read any of them. My life hasn't been picture perfect and I don't want people treading through things after I'm gone and discussing me in an unflattering light. I guess I'm too proud. Secrets should die with a person.

Spending time with family, laughing, crying and being as silly as we want to be.

This is always an interesting topic...reality is none of us know when we will depart this earth. We need to live like it is our 48 hours everyday.


Have a blessed day-

I'd probably spend the whole time making a list for my husband to ensure he knows everything he needs to regarding our children. smile

What fascinating answers! Half of us want to put things in order for that are left, and the other half want to enjoy the last two days to the fullest. I lean towards finding order, and that defines me in my life now. So for the party people, does that define you in life as you are now?

One other part of the question... would you tell anyone? I don't think that I would\, except for my immediate family. I think having others know would make my last two days unbearable.

Carol - you make an interesting observation of the question and the people answering the question. How exactly do we live our lives to begin with? Are we celebrating type people that hug our friends and family every day? Do we laugh and live every moment? Do we line up all our ducks, sort of speak and have everything in order?

From my post I guess you can tell I have everything in order most all the time. If I've written journals through many years and an autobiography I guess I had a need to get all my "mess" figured out on paper so I could essentially close the book and put it away before I die. I'm not a big happy-go-lucky party person (more serious in nature) and so when I die I will keep things quiet and private. Being the self-made introvert that I am I have very few friends so I would only gather around me immediate family.

In reading other's posts you can somewhat see how people tend to live life, I suppose. Excellent post, Carol.

Hang out with my brothers and sisters, and parents. Have a party, and probably go for a run, and eat my favourite thai food and fresh salad. They are my ultimate feel goods.
