When the animal hunger runs deep I know I'm never gonna get to sleep.

I can't sleep
I'm in a glass case of emotion
Fuck you PMS
I just want to cry and love and kick and scream and laugh and sob and cuddle and love and shout and throw punches and cry and cuddle and laugh and sleep through this entire year.

I don't live every moment as if it were my last because if I truly were to, I'd just be stabbing people and running naked through the streets 24/7.

That said, I have significantly "spiced up my life" over the past year or so. I used to live a very "moral" lifestyle; I didn't want to drink or do drugs, and I looked down on promiscuity. Then I started to think "Eventually I will die, and maybe I should enjoy tons of sensual pleasures before then." Now I enjoy mind-altering substances and the company of sexy ladies. Of course, I still factor in consequences, since I don't really do anything that could hurt me long-term; I don't experiment with any intoxicants other than booze and pot, and I don't sleep with just any sketchy skank.

It's not possible to live every moment as your last. If it was, no one would hold steady jobs or go to school or anything. We'd all be backpacking around Europe and constantly telling everyone we love them. ;)

On that note, I do live by the philosophy that you should never regret any of your actions. That way, if I *were* to die tomorrow, I wouldn't be like "crap, why did I do that two months ago? IDIOT!" on my deathbed. I know it's kind of morbid, but I have recently thought about the scenario of dying within a week/month/year and under the circumstances, I would be content with my life just as it is. :)

I LOVE YOU! Let's backpack around Europe!!

Heh, that should be some sort of epic pick-up line.

"Hey baby, I live my life as if every moment is my last. How about we skip the formalities and get it onnnn?"

and
i only live some moments as if they were my last.

No, I don't live my life like that.

I don't think I'd want to, either - like Tressa and Anita said, I'd get nothing of actual consequence done. Plus, living like that suggests that our time here is fleeting - and though it is, I know I still have a lot of living left to do.

It's not always more important to factor in consequences, but I do it, as you know, probably too often, as you also know, haha. I think when I need to I can be impulsive, but it's not that often unfortunately. Sometimes I wish I was capable of living a slightly more "live every day as if it's your last!" lifestyle.

That didn't even answer your question...

hmmm...
I think it depends on WHAT the thing is that you're thinking of doing. Like the other comments said- if it's something actually genuinely reckless and bad for you or society or something, then maybe it's not the best idea. If it's just going to stir up some temporary drama in your life, then why not!
