I just received news that a teacher from my secondary school had just passed away. Although she never taught my class, some of us knew about about her illness. That was back in 2008 I think.

What if you found out you had 3 more years to live? Would 3 years sound like 3 days? 3 hours maybe. What would you say. You know how they say, never to curse but to leave it all to fate or "God's hands". I really wonder if people would be so calm and collected when receiving such news. I for one, would probably not go in the "Oh, it's all fate. I've accepted it". I wonder how that feels like. It must be rather peaceful. But a sort of peaceful that I feel weird about.

Because I'd freak the hell out. I don't want to die and it's the truth. I am just speaking the truth. I'm not going to pretend (or heavily assume) that I would be very matured and spiritual about it.

hmm :/
