I've had a couple years of it.
I can do without. I miss my games.

Nothing else would matter.
I might as well enjoy.
As it stands, I have some
hopes for the future, even
if they're unlikely.

I doubt that this game will work this time either.

My attempt to have people think outside the box
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

One day is VERY different from a year.

meh, I never said "TODAY" would be the day I die. I guess I should have made it more open ended - which was my intention.

I was thinking of a medical death sentence

There is always the point that I think you
were trying to make, which is that obviously,
we don't live life that way - doing what we
most want. We hock our souls, for some imagined
future. Hell, I'd probably still be with my wife, if
I had lived as though life was going to end.

Likewise, I think I could try and be happy, if
I knew I only had a short while left. But, concerns
about reality prevent this.

no dancing?

I dance every day; that's a given.

...and to actually anser the question, if I actually 100% knew that I had one year to live, I'd probably try to write a novel that didn't suck (or a memior, but that would kinda kill the fun of my last year alive).

The bigger question would be how to break it to my family; it would be awful no matter what.  The same with any potential "last-year-of-life-sex" partner I might have.  I mean, yes, I'd want to go out with a bang (well, many), but how the hell do you do that without messing up the partner?  Do you watch Sweet November (or the movie with Mandy Moore with the identical plot) with them, then at the end be like, "While we're on that topic..."?

I'm taking this too seriously, though, I'm sure.   :laugh:

Depends on if the illness that makes you have one year left to live is something transmittable sexually.

I would probably try to fuck as many women as possible knowing that I am going to die and that I won't give what is going to kill me to anyone else.   Getting in any serious relationship when I have a year left to live is a big mistake.    Probably better off fucking hookers if you are a guy and not up to your neck in pussy already.
Well, I was assuming that since I knew it was a year exactly, it was more like a mob hit than a disease, let alone a contageous one.
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

i do a lot that i would if i were dying, which is be in the moment. i may seem like a selfish bastard because i take every second as a valuable thing. but i save my DVDs for the future. :-\

If I had one year more to live I'd just quit job, quit school quit everything like that and take my savings and just have a blast.
