I get it. I understand why people say “live today like it’s your last.” It’s about seizing the moment and making the most of every second; it’s about taking risks and living life to the fullest. But the reality is, if today truly were your last, you would live it very differently.
You would have no regrets over all the things you hadn’t done, all the goals never attained. Instead, you would focus your attention and precious last moments on your family and loved ones doing ordinary things like sharing a meal, talking and expressing your deep love for them.
