The what if's

What if... Such a great question, such a horrible question. It's one i'm going to ask.

What if you're family died in a horrible plane crash, or some tragic accident. What would your life be like. Would you be able to move on, how do you think it would affect your life. Personally, if my family were to die. It would just rip a part of me a way. Many teenagers hate their parents, but they are still a dominating influence most of the time in our lives. I just see a lot of qualities that I got from them, and I think I would have already gotten what they had to teach me, but I just wouldn't want to see someone that important gone. Would I break down? No, there's just no way. I would definitely move on, probably be more determined than ever to accomplish my goals. There's just a couple things I couldn't bare, and I'd think about a lot. It would create a lot of what if's about my brother and sister, they hadn't done much in their lives and I'm wondering what they could have done had they lived. To see someone with such potential, just wither away, it just seems horrible. In the end, I'd move on like I always do. I wouldn't forget them, but It wouldn't be like I wouldn't be able to function. Working, living, takes my mind off events. A bad day for me can become good in a matter of five minutes. A death, would live me for quite a while, but I would still be able to cope.

Another what if I'd like to ask, is if you had 30 days to live, what would you do with those 30 days? Would you stand up to all those who had pushed you around because it did not matter anymore. Would you do the things that you wanted to do but seemed too risky for you?

What would I do? Be scrambling around to write down my ideas, thoughts, something, something to pass on to someone. Dying at a young age, it would seem wasted to me, wasted for me to even have lived if I had not passed something down. I would probably attempt to write a book, a journal or something for my friends and family. I just wouldn't want to go out without leaving something. To go out with a bang, to be remembered, to do something that would clearly demonstrate what you were about, that's something I would be planning on doing.
