RE: If It's The Last 24 Hours

It’s important that while we watch movies simply for the entertainment, we also take time to see those that let our imagination run wild. The movie you just referenced is a great example. It makes you reflect on the “what ifs” until you find your own answers. I truly enjoyed reading it, and I would say that death still comes as a surprise to many of us, without an apocalypse happening. The only difference in your reference is the idea of knowing the exact day and hour of our deaths, and acting like it’s truly our last.
Still, the concept of making reparations just because one knows they’ll die soon feels odd to me, as it often stems from the fear of going to hell. If hell didn’t exist for most people, I doubt many would bother making amends with those they’ve wronged. That alone makes the story thought-provoking, because no one should have to wait for a revelation to do what’s right if they truly wanted to.
Wonderful post, by the way! I love that you’d spend your final day with family. I’d love to do the same, and I hope that wish comes true for both of us.
You made very valid inferences from the post.
Movies open us to some wild imaginations or in other cases some base facts we should be aware of.
I find it intriguing too that people will make such amends when they know they'll soon die. It's not the right way, it's definitely the fear of going to hell. So, what if there's no hell?
I figured what better way in such an occurrence? Thank you very much for the wonderful comment. I appreciate.
