Scary thing to think about, but I must say you just found the right words!I have also thought about it many times and I do agree with every single line you wrote.
Every day is precious and could be the last one of your life... but you will never really lose the ones you love. You did a wonderful poem! *deeplyimpressed*

If I knew my loved ones were going to Heaven with me, I could "give it up" with peace and joyful anticipation.

My sentiments exactly, Jack. On the day I found out about my cancer, I made it my business to create happy memories with my family and keep life as normal as possible. That was six years ago, imagine the store of memories my kids have after six years.

I have often thought this , my friend.
I suppose we would pray alot, and love
our family more. Maybe mend a few fences that were broken on the way.
Excellent and thought
provoking.

Guess we have all thought about it. I never really come up with an answer but I guess a person could never know unless it happens. When my time comes I just want to go like my Grandpa did, peacefully in my sleep. Not screaming in terror like his passengers.
