Live Your Best Life



Imagine being on your dying bed and thinking about the worries and stress you had throughout your life, that was not worth it. You’re thinking about how you wish you had more gratitude for people, things, places and experiences. You’re thinking about all the opportunities you wish you had of went for. All the excuses you created that now seem stupid.

Live your life like you’re on your dying bed. Go out knowing you lived your best life. This is something I think of everyday. It is a reminder to smile and laugh more, to enjoy life’s experiences and lessons. Rather those experiences are good or
bad. To not waste time on things, people, places, and painful experiences that's going to hold you back from living your best life.

To not take everything so damn serious. Even on your dying bed, you have a chance to motivate someone one before you go. Live your best life.

About this poem

This poem is about living your best life. Imagining yourself on your dying bed right now. All the things you think about when your in that situation. Thinking about the life you have lived. Don't get on your dying bed full of regrets. Live your best life now and during your last moments. Don't think death won't come for you and never know when it will come. So don't procrastinate in life and take your life for granted.
