I do not know how many of you have heard the song "if today Was Your Last Day" by Nickelback, but that song keeps popping in my head this week. I first thought about it during Meredith's monologue on Grey's the other night (which I could devote a whole other blog to0 and then I heard it today. This song can really make you think. It makes me think about how I should live my life, but also makes me regret how I live my life. I neglect those who are close to me. I take advantage that they will always be around, so I often do not treat them like I should. I am a lot like Meredith Grey in that I rarely tell people close to me how much I love them. I also keep up with those friends who are far away. I truly regret I never see any of them, but even more that I hardly talk to them. As cheesy as it sounds I am thankful for facebook in that I can catch up with people. Seriously though, what if today was your last day? What would you do? I have no idea what I would do I if I knew it was my last day, but I do know I should live each day like it was my last. From this day I should remember how I much I love those I see each day and those who are far away. I should treat those around me with the respect they deserve . Read these lyrics below and think about what if today was your last day.
Nickelback - If Today Was Your Last Day Lyrics
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 have?
If today was your last day
Against the grain should be a way of life
What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’ll never live it 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 have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you 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 nothin’ 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 have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day
