However, at my last day, maybe it's the best not to let my relatives know about it. Because my family has very many problems recently, my grandpa died and many more.
The people who don't know me that much, for example some friends here in esl cafe, or some other friends in Internet, I would tell them.
Next I will transfer all my money on the account of my mom, (to prevent any inhritance fees)
Then maybe I go very deeply in a big forest (There is one near my house) and dig a hole for myself. |
Is it fair for your relatives, guy? I can understand how your relatives feel when they know ur last day, but they will feel more wretched what did you intent to do. If i were you i wouldnt do like that, i will spend all my day with my relatives, trying to do something that i have never done for a short time as i can.

1. Don't you think it's something similar? If some men look at naked women and their mouths begin to fill with saliva...
2. If a wife sees his husband looking at naked women won't she be angry?

You ask questions that are two different issues.
1. Seeing a naked person and sex are two very different things. Something has to happen in the observer's mind to make a naked person into an object of sexual desire.
It is very possible to observe a naked person (hot or not) without becoming sexually aroused. So, it's not the nakedness that is sexual - it is the desire in the observer that is sexual.
It would be unfortunate if we were unable to appreciate something observed only for aesthetics. And it would be weak to not have conscious power over our desires.
2. This all depends on the wife, and the role the man is engaged in when he observes a naked women.
Do you think the wife of a doctor should be angry if her husband has to examine a female patient?
What about the wife of a sculptor who creates art from a living model?

Yeah beancurd, it is possible to observe a naked person without becoming sexually aroused. The example of the doctor is very fitting here. At breast enlargements, the doctor is interested in doing his job and not in looking at the b-reasts. But if I go to bathhouse with the intention to look at naked women, (with or without sexually desires) I am not interested in doing any medical or aesthetical job, I am only interested in looking at the sexual organs of the naked women.
I don't think it's something very good. If you are a woman you also don't want a stranger looking at you, the same as you don't run around without your underpants, the same as there are bathrooms for men and bathrooms for women.
The Bible says: "Love your colleagues/neighbours as you love yourself." (Lev 19, 18) or "If a stranger stays in your country, you shouldn't suppress him. He should stay beside you like a local, and you should love him like you love yourself." (Lev 19, 33)

if I had only one day left in this world to live, well there are many things that comes to mind to do but I don't think I can do all those in one day so what I would do is just pray for GOD and ask forgiveness bout what I have done wrong, also I would make my last wish to see my mom once in heaven Because I have never seen my mom in my whole life Bcause she died when I was 2. so I think that's pretty much what I would do my last day of this world.......

Of course it is fair. My grandma likes me very very much because I have lived from birth until 10 in her house. My dead grandpa, if he knew that I'm gonna die, maybe he would not find peace. Because of my mom my maths/ physics/ latin grade became twice better. My general uncle even let me sit in his tank when I was young. My cousin etc.
How can I let them feel sad? Better they think I'm somewhere hidden in Turkey.
