If Tomorrow Never Comes.
Are you ready to leave this world?

Are you satisfied with your contribution to the world.

Is there still something you feel that you must do?

Have you made right, your various relatiohships with others.

If you had to pass on tomorrow, can you say with confidence that this life has been all it could be.

Well I need at least another 20 or so years.. 15 would be the minimum ... what? Well I still have a baby to raise

Other than that? If you discount everyone else... not much extra to do personally. This world is as it is, I haven't saved it or contributed too much.. still there is not much else that I would have to see or do. All is done, and goodnight if I would have to go.

However i would really find out in that last ,moment if I realised -this is it.

Since I cannot know what will happen tomorrow, I am in no position to answer this.

No, no, and no. I am aiming to the top. And will try to reach it. If I won't, that's too bad, cause I'll be pretty up there anyway, but life is not worth living if you are not trying.

What's that for a question. Why would I want to leave this world, unless i'm living on the street, have nothing to eat, face starvation or any other shitty position that would be not cool.


what's a contribution to this world? if I weren't there, the world would look (a tiny little bit) different, but so what's the difference, i am unimportant!

i am not satisfied with my life because i've been an annoying a**hole many times (just like everybody else you know..) but on the other hand i am satisfied with my life, because I have shelter, entertainment and good food.

I am too miserable, too low spirited, too sick of the world and all in it, including life itself, that I would not care if I heard this moment the flapping of the wings of the angel of death.

Seeing the contrast between Saint Marcus' and Boddington's' answeres really got me ing.


I am happy with my contribution to this world and most of my relationships. But I still have lots to do and to achieve and to give the world - so no way - i'm not ready to go.

When I die, I die.

I don't have anything that I want to acomplish before I die - there's no sense in stressing myself out worrying about stupid things while I'm still alive.

I have a limitless amount of stuff I want to accomplish before I die. As such, any finite length of life is equivalent to any other when relative to eternity.

Are you ready to leave this world?

Does it really matter. I have little choice in the matter. I am fairly ready, but that doesn't mean I want to go yet.

Are you satisfied with your contribution to the world.

Not really. But I never have been a mover and a shaker. I'm more of a voyeour.

Is there still something you feel that you must do?

Nothing I can think of.

Have you made right, your various relatiohships with others.

As much as possible, yes.

If you had to pass on tomorrow, can you say with confidence that this life has been all it could be.

I don't think I can say that with confidence.

I have contributed nothing significant and I'm proud of that. If by the world you mean, to humanity, then I don't care about them. Most humans are 4ssholes anyways. If you mean, to the actual planet, well its going to get eaten up by the sun when it goes red giant so I don't care either.

There's nothing that I need to do concerning others.

I don't know what my life was supposed to be in the first place. I suspect that death will be like the state of my existence before birth. Nothing... and I don't remember it being so bad.

Im am quite ready to go wherever the wind will blow me away. Death will be no different from anything else.

Unlike some people here Im no misanthrope, but I dont care too much for human race either. So no.

To resolve misunderstanding and heal relationship with someone whos dear to me. She may not know it, and I havent, but I never stopped loving her. (ehh sappy romantic stuff )

above answers this.

Been all it could be? how can i know if i dont even know what it was supposed to be? I merely played a role out of infinite possibility. Whether 'good' or 'bad' i think i did my job.
