One Day

If you had one day to live, how would you spend it?

Many people say they would want to live it normally, as they would any other day. But if you knew that you only had today then would you really? I know I wouldn't.

I'd make a special effort to wake up at 8/9am so I really could make the most of my day. I'd ring absolutely everyone, all my close friends and family so I could spend it with them. And I think I'd like to get the train to Weston-Super-Mare.

A lot of my childhood memories are at Weston with my family; mainly my Mums side. I have so many fond memories of donkey rides, sea world, the pier and Ben building us sand sculpture cars. It's definitely one of my 'happy places'. I spent my 17th birthday there with my family last year, and to some of you that may sound far from exciting but I honestly had the best day. They have the most amazing milkshake shop just outside the centre which we always go to, and the pier is always a good shout.

Anyway, I would definitely go to Weston-Super-Mare and I would definitely grab a milkshake and I'd also go to the pier. Ahhhh so much fun. And I think I'd just get some chips and gravy, and eat on the sea front wall with everyone.

If I had one day to live that's how I would spend it, not too complicated, but spent with the most important people in my happy place.

As for having one day left to live, that won't be anytime soon and if it ever does come around, I'd like to think I'd be at a decent age, so I probably wouldn't be able to do all that in reality. So actually if I did have one day to live, I'd like to be at home, in bed surrounded by my family and friends, and theres nothing more I'd want! (Although a a pizza definitely wouldn't go a miss. (I hope that's the right term).

I believe that you should live every day as if it's your last. You leave behind the history of yesterday, and determine how you will use todays energy; because all you have is now, and you have to live for today and make it so beautiful that it's worth remembering. Today will never come again so make good use of it. You will only regret it if you don't.

Life is beautiful; count your blessings, not your problems.

Love, Erika
