So let's say today at midnight you are going to die . Do yoy have any regrets?

Now i'm not asking what you would do for your day , i don't care about that . I want to know if you will be at peace with your passing , or is the last hours are going to be filled with regret and anguish .

I personally would be at peace if i was to die at midnight tonight . Yeah it would suck not seeing everything icould see in another 30-40 years , but i regret nothing . Hell i'm not even sure if the next few decades would be enjoyable . All i know is , i would be completly fine if i was to cease to exist atthe end of the day .

Well, I've spent the grand majority of my life sitting in my damn room, due to a combination of social anxiety/phobia and lazyness. You could certainly say I'd have regrets. Not experiencing anything, never getting any kind of employment. No social life. Et cetera. Not that I'm complaining, as I'm currently in the slow but sure process of getting myself mentally sorted out and fixing this, but if I were to die tonight? Yeah, I'd be pretty fucking ashamed.

I'm so completely depressed right now that I'd probably welcome it. Were I in a better state of mind, yeah, I'd probably have some regrets. If nothing else, not spending longer at Disney World when I was there two weeks ago. Not spending myself broke means a lot less when you're dead, so I could have had more fun.

No. Nothing. Partly out of genuinly being quite happy with what I've been so far, partly out of rebellion.

Captcha: carpe diem.

Yes, you do keep trying to push those conventions, don't you?

Yeah it'd be pretty shitty.
Then again most of the stuff I regret not doing is stuff I can't really see myself getting around to any time in my actual life so whatever.

Yeah, I'd have regrets. Not being able to bring an end so the various plot threads of my life, not being able to fix things that I've broken, not being able to experience things that I've always dreamed of...

Yeah, it would be pretty shitty. I'm JUST getting my life in order right now. Death would come too soon if it did today.

Plenty. Oh so very plenty.

I never got to do all that I wanted in life. Never knew love. Never knew sex! And I really wanted to know the last one. Didn't reach any of the goals I set for myself.

And most importantly, I'm just plain fucking scared of dying. I can never be a peace because of that.

Well, I'd be pissed off with myself that I didn't decide to get a Doctor's appointment until today. I mean, I've been feeling a bit out of sorts, but only decided I should see a Doctor late last night, and they're busy today.

I think I'd have a good amount of regrets. I'm wouldn't be sorry I never found love, but there are things I would wish I'd done, and things I'd done that I'd want to fix. For example, I am in a state of perpetual lies, and I've gotten so good at it not even my family can tell when I'm lying (and I am most of the time). I don't want to be remembered as the lying little bastard I am.

Just as I fucking got Dark Souls too. Figures :/

^That would pretty much be my thought XD

Yeah I guess I'd be at peace. I've still not done a lot of what I want, and would regret not doing them, but none of those things are required to be at peace with something like that. Even if you achieve all the things you want to, you'd still not necessarily find peace. You need stoicism and virtue blah blah zen buddhism.

I wouldn't be happy. I kinda know that I would never make a big impact on the world, but I have so much that I wish I had done. There's 'essential' stuff I've done, like love and crap like that, but there's stuff I wish I'd made more of. For instance, I've been told by everyone that's heard what I've written that my music and lyrics are good; even if I wasn't financially successful, I would have liked to see if that held up.

The only things from my past I regret were not my fault, so ... no, all clear there.

The future however?

I have two kids, my youngest only 2 weeks old, and I wouldn't be there for them. My son (4 yrs) would likely only vaguely remember his father in a few years, and my daughter (<1 month) would never even know she had a father.

That would suck. It's why you see men in films say "Wait! I have a wife and kids!" when someone points a gun at them. They don't care about their own lives; it's the lives of those they leave behind that concerns them.

It's easy to be brave and charge the enemy when you only have yourself to look after.

-Haven't had intercourse yet.

-I'd die a month before earning my geology degree I've been working on for four years. Kind of pisses me off to think about.

-Places around the world I haven't been to.

-Never got married and started a family

-Games I haven't finished or gotten to play yet.

-Same as above movie/book/show wise

Would I be sad I couldn't experience more stuff... sure. Regrets, nope. I would probably spend the last day tying up loose ends of which I have very little. I have had a pretty full life. Traveled. Published. Loved. Lost. Seen great works of art. Helped a few people along the way etc etc. I realistically could say if they picked me for the one way trip to mars, I would totes be down for it.

I never did write that novel.

Also, I'll die in England, rather than Ireland. How gross.

I'm just getting on my feet too so I'd know the feeling.

OT: I'd only have one true regret regarding a certain ex, but other than that no not really. I've always followed a line from Babylon 5 that Sheridan said about living the way of the warrior. Here's the scene:

Always loved that view of life and tried to follow it, so if I did go tomorrow I'd mostly be happy with it. I guess it's easier having that view when I've grown up always knowing I've beaten the odds already and should be dead as far as doctors are concerned when I was born (they wanted to pull the plug on me). I guess it's easier to see every day as an opportunity when you really are lucky to have it.

btw: Feel free to ask if u want to know more about what happened, not going to go into detail unless requested.

I would die with the horrible feeling that I am currently unattached...

Before I die I would like to be in some sort of loving relationship... Yeah...

I would also regret not being able to spend the weekend at @Revelo 's pad this weekend! And that also makes me sad.

I wouldn't regret anything else though...

I actually thought about this quite seriously a few years ago, I was diagnosed with a relatively easy to cure cancer, but cancer none-the-less. There was about a 65% chance of getting through it, which are decent odds, but still a 1/3 of not doing so...

I came to the conclusion then, that though I don't want to die, and there being a bunch of stuff I'd like to do still, I would be at peace with it.

Luckily everything turned out for the best, so I can just go on wasting my time like I always did...

Never finished College ( I will be done in a couple of months, but if I died today...)

Never made a lasting impact on the world.
