were your last day, would you?????

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are

So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

might want to give props to nickelback for that song/lyrics...

the lyrics are very meaningful to myself and many others I am sure...no one knows if today is your last day...we do know that today is our lifetime...

I hold these lyrics very close to my heart...

Thank you Nickelback for the song!!

That is an endearing thought, but what if your friends aren't ready to go yet???:banana:

this is really about having regret(s)...

if someone you love died today...what is it that you would regret?

that you did not say you loved them?
that you held onto a grudge?

that you wished you had gone with them for coffee that one day they asked?

that you had listened to more of their words?

that you had treated them better?

could you let go of yesterday?

even if things did not turn out as you planned, did you do everything you could to get the BEST result possible?

Did you forgive?

there is not always time...one day it can all change without any warning...no illness, no accident...someone just dies.

these lyrics really talk about regret...what would you regret if today was your last day, or if it was the last day of someone you love...

[/I am not sure what the thoughts were of the songwriter when they wrote them, but what I come away with is ….”today is a gift”. Get out there, love and laugh, enjoy what you hold dear, be forgiving, compromise, accepting, try to have an open mind and heart.

flowerforyou Exactly. I see it everyday here on Mingle. Some people offer hugs, words or encouragement, laughter, and just plain entertainment. I don't think that they realize that those interactions could be someones lifeline.flowerforyou
