30 seconds to live, how do you feel about your life till now

In the same theme as the last thread, but you've only got 30 seconds, so nothing practicl can be done, all you have time to think about is how you've lived your life until this point.
How would you feel? What do you think would be your overriding emotion?
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe

Im content with my life I think. Only overriding emotion would be not being able to see my best friend and family before going.

I live every day of my life so that if this happens, I will be able to say, without question 'I did the absolute best I could with my time here'
It's kinda become my raison d'ĂȘtre in this life, a bit morbid some might say, to be always ready for death, but it makes me happy.

I have the entire after life to think about what I lived. As for the last 30 seconds I would not know what to do. Depends what I am doing. I guess I would try to die with dignity. Hug my dog perhaps!

I believe I would be thinking..."No!!! Not yet!!!"
Not afraid to die. Just not ready to.

If I die of health and not injury. It's gonna be that I knew for some time I am falling apart. Just not knowing exactly when or in what way I'm gonna drop. Grandma died in her sleep. Dad dropped dead. Grandpa died of an enlarged heart. I hope to go like Grandma and not rot too long. Had a neighbor that died and nobody noticed for a week or so. Smelled so awful. Would hate for my dog to not be ok (planning on keeping a dog around) or get put down for eating my rotting flesh. Also I don't want my pup to suffer...want them to be taken care of.

Honestly I think I'd feel relief, cuz in half a minute it wouldn't matter how I'd lived my life. One less thing to worry about.

You seem very sure there is an afterlife.

And you do not.
I find this interesting. To me, I feel the only rational standpoint is that there could be, but also it could be nothing. 50/50 in my eyes. Although certainly enough of a possibility to ensure that should there be something on the other side, I lived lived my life in a way that will ensure I get what I want - which to ensure, should reincarnation be a thing (50/50 again) that I DO NOT end up back down on this plane of existence to do another round cause there was some vital lesson I don't learn...

I am the quintessential skeptic I suppose. If pressed from a philosophical standpoint I'd have to admit I can't be certain there is no afterlife, but I sure seem to live as though there isn't. My actions (or anyone else's) in that regard betray my beliefs more than words ever could, I think.
With that being said, I think I'd feel the same way even if I believed in an afterlife. 27 years of whatever the hell I've been doing pales in comparison to an eternity of either torment or paradise. I don't think I'd be terribly concerned about what I'd done on Earth either way. As far as reincarnation goes, I wouldn't know what to do to achieve any particular outcome, so que sera sera I guess.
Might be worth mentioning that I think the sense of relief would come at least as much from not having to worry about the future as not having to worry about the past. I worry too much.

Death is probably like the best and/or worst of every drug. All of the mind unleashed. That's my thought. Hope it's like a Nitrous oxide induced NDE, cause those are easy!

Life is beautiful and I am glad I lived it. I would also be laying down hopefully, with my eyes closed. As if entering a dream world.

Sad because it was just starting to get really good. Glad that I was able to experience the trips that I was able to experience, and see the things I was able to see. Extremely disappointed because so many of my personal projects are unfinished. Sad that I'll never get to use a lysergamide again.

Yeah, absolutely. If I had never tried a lysergamide, I would probably have been thinking about mushrooms anyway.

I have had an unbelievably good life And I have been blessed far beyond what I deserve So many awful things could have happened and didn't So many amazing blessings I didn't earn but was given And some remarkable things I achieved I met the love of my life when I was only 18 And I have already had ten years of marital bliss with the woman of my dreams
Even if I died today I would have to be so grateful And gratitude and reverence would be the emotion I would wish to spend the last 30 seconds in Giving thanks and praise

Everything I post is fiction.
