-JQ- Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 "We don't beat the reaper by living longer, we beat the reaper by living well and living fully," he said. "I think the only advice I can give you on how to live your life well is, first off, remember ... it's not the things we do in life that we regret on our deathbed, it is the things we do not." Randy Pausch, a Carnegie Mellon professor with terminal cancer whose inspiring "last lecture" about childhood dreams made him an Internet video sensation. Pausch said he was told in August it was unlikely he would live for more than six more months, but that he was now surviving into his ninth month. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,356556,00.html Go live it...

LPatterson Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 So is life about living or merely surviving? When living becomes a chore instead of fun then I am no longer interested in surviving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeweyH Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 A shooter friend in our area, who is dying of cancer but has yet to give up living, once said "Live the width of your life. you don't know how long you have but you can fill it up in the mean time." My mantra from then on has been "Live Wide" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
