one time i read in a book, can’t remember the title, can’t remember the exact question… but someone was asked what they wanted most in life… the answer i do rememer…
“i want to live well. and when it’s time, i want to die well.”
i was very young when i read that. i think about seventeen.
i thought about that simple statement many times throughout the years.
and having watched randy pausch live and die, i think i know what it means.

Good points. I used to spend alot of my time water skiing and watching sports. It was possibly the most memorable period of my past and your info somehow brought back us of that period of my life. Cheers

I’ll be 75 in Mar. I never understood the phrase “It’s later than you think,” until now. I enjoy life, but I could do better at it. I think it’d happen by spending more time with friends. But it pulls me down if I don’t get done what I expect of myself. (Only 24 hr. days)

Thanks for alerting me to this wonderful man and message. Sometimes I just get so caught up in the ‘frustration’ or business of the moment, I forget to look at the joy..This reminds me of what is important.

I am thoroughly touched by this blog.

You are also doing a job to mankind for sharing this message. I think if life is not enjoyed fully it would be a waste.
One way to enjoy life is to have positive thoughts about everything happening around you.

Cheers.
Abu.
