Tell us:
If you knew you only had one month to live, what would you do to make what’s left of your life really matter?
and then I challenge you to do it in your life.

The primary thing that matters to me is to make sure that my mother's life ends with as little distress and suffering as possible. Therefore a month would barely be enough to make the necessary arrangements for her care, financial details, etc. I would not have time to have any fun or to do anything else useful.

well if i had a month to live, i would probably stop working on my thesis, as i wouldn't really see graduating as a priority anymore - but i guess for now i should keep working on the thesis.

If I had a month I'd go on a roll!

The reson I asked is because in my hours of whiling away the time on the internet, I came across a site, sure it was connected to a church and it was a group project. But the challenge was to truly look at your life and see what you would and/or could change.
I am to raw with grief right now to do this, but I have learnt the true meaning of life is too short and once I am a little stronger, I have every intention of looking at my life and making my life count.

There are a lot of things I would like to change and I know I will, I just can't at the moment. But I am looking forward to the moment when I can start doing things that I actually like.

ouch! I am such a wimp!
If I had only one month to live, I would leave my job, that's for sure.
The first thing that came to my head reading this thread was to volunteer for the Big Green Idea full time... but I know that I cannot afford to do this unless I win the lottery.
And if I had only one month to live, I would certainly want to hide in my family's arms. I guess I'd squander whatever I have saved in travels to meet my friends and family. In the end, one's family (whether blood relations or chosen family) is what counts.
