What if you had one more day to live
Would you take your sweetheart out
Would you hug your kids jus a lil tighter
Would you stand and watch the sun set over the sea
Would you take some stranger out to lunch
Would you build a house for the homeless
What if you had one more day to live
What have you done with your life
Are you satisfied,
Are you ready to say good bye?

Death is closer than you think...it could be right around the corner, right behind you, our years into the future; but life on earth must one day come to an end, and the exact day and hour are never what we expect, even for the terminally ill.
Recently, DeviantART lost a great artist, =DancesWithHorses, to an unexpected car accident.
Death is a mysterious, dangerous, and sometimes beautiful ending to the world we see before us...And Death is a figure of passing, a figure of ending one world and starting another...
Truthfully, Death comes in many colors, forms, shapes and sizes, and while we may think we're in control, we're never able to control exactly when we die.
If you were to die today, would you be ready?

Death is the cessation of the biological functions that define living organisms. It refers both to a specific event and, particularly in humans, to a condition the true nature of which it has for millennia been a central concern of the world's religious traditions to penetrate. Numerous factors can cause death: predation, disease, habitat destruction, senescence, conflict, malnutrition, for example, or mere accidents resulting in terminal physical injury. Principal cause of death in people in developed countries is disease precipitated by aging. Today, where a definition of the moment of death is required, doctors and coroners usually turn to "brain death" or "biological death": People are considered dead when the electrical activity in their brain ceases (cf. persistent vegetative state).
