If today was your last day?

Tis always the case, I start listening to a new album and my next few blog posts contain references, links and other sundry musings based on the content of that.

Postings have been a little thin on the ground lately, largely due to me being in a kind of cruise control;  I go to work, I come home, I go to Karate (and generally get battered; my right hand thumb is somewhat suspect at the moment), I eat, I sleep and re-start the process the next day.

Not the most exciting post you’d ever read, not that I am suggesting that any of my previous blog posts could be categorised as such, but you get the picture.

Now this track by Nickelback, music and lyrics below, has gotten me wondering and cogitating on the question it poses.  I don’t have a full answer as yet, or nothing that could fill a blog post, but I think at some point I will have to answer it and try and kickstart life a little.

…and very possibly ‘develop some’ as my trusty Glaswegian friend has told me on many an occassion.

Please feel free to give me any suggestions either on here or, preferably, over a beer :)

    Very buddhist sentiment – death awareness – or as my Dad used to say, “You’re a long time dead”….

    One of the BEST songs by Nickelback – loved it since Dark Horse first came out. The one line that always gets me is “could you forgive your enemies”. Definitely a thought-provoking question that makes you take an honest look within yourself.

    Great topic, Andy. ;-)
