Things to do before I die. An idea created by us humans who have maybe accepted the fate that our lives will, at some point end. Unfortunately we are not permitted to live forever in this beautiful and at times troubling world. Have you ever been asked that question? - 'If you could choose to live forever would you?' I have always said yes, that has never changed. I know seeing loved ones die would be painful and the world around you change and maybe crumble. But my argument is, that I only know this life. When I'm dead, I am dead. Maybe some sort of consciousness will live on, but maybe not. I don't want to take that risk! I'll miss life too much. Anyway, I'm not going to live forever, so here is a list of things I want to do before death comes knocking at my door.
