The day before you die - Why doing what really matters is so important | Paddy Ney | TEDxKazimierz

[@brianscates5225]

Thank you for this talk; yes love is vitally important to all of us - and when I say love it does not have to relate to religious concepts; I had someone physically attack me in 2013; they put a glass in my throat and bashed my head repeatedly against a wall; I survived but had a stroke related to my attack; I doubted love after that. I recovered from the stroke and built my life up to what it is now in 2021 in England - happy, industrious, confident, calmer, keener, tolerant and also loving. Yes love is very important - and you don't have to be religious to experience or to give love.

"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." Chief Tecumseh, Shawnee Nation

I feel very connected to this topic. Sometimes I ask myself and will ask others, "you only have one life, so how would you want to live your life?" We all got one life to live, and once we are gone, we are gone. I could imagine myself lying on a bed at my last day of life, reflecting my time I had. I would reflect what I had, should have, and would want to have done. Then I use that as my motivation to write my story, in other words, live life the way I want to live. At the end of your life, people who tried to bring you down would not matter, the small mistakes you made and blamed yourself for will not matter, and opportunities you could have taken but did not is going to feel really, really terrible. I am starting to learn to accept myself with who I am and learn ways on how to live a happy life, and to take opportunities as much as I can because in the end that is all it matters.

The strength and power of love is unfortunately so utterly underestimated, and people don't realize we are all intimately connected by love. This beautiful planet earth was created out of and through, and because of love, and since we live on earth we are thus intimately loved. Love is all there is and without love, nothing exists. Love is every subject every object. YES.

[@caroleevandyk5544]

Hi Richard, powerful post. This concept is something many of my Christian friends and acquaintances don’t understand and they severely underestimate the power of love by saying God has a place of eternal suffering waiting for people who don’t manage to “choose” to trust Christ before they die. Yet their own scriptures say, “Love NEVER fails.” Right there the whole threat of Christian orthodoxy is wiped out and they have no clue.

Having empathy will bring you closer to an encompassing love of others. Awm

Absolutely, Janice. On the other hand, let's not beat ourselves up if we lose our empathy from time to time :)

[@thomasdoherty6726]

In my experience about 20 years ago with a very close brush with death, it all hit home very hard with regards to who and what really matters to me, family loved ones, etc, but there was also a strong sense of I'm going to meet my maker because doctors weren't going to cure me and I turned to God as my last hope and I put my trust in Christ Jesus. This led on to strengthen my faith on a daily basis and with time I slowly began to recover and began to travel again. Then something that I can also relate to that is similar to Paddy's story is when I visited Poland back in 2004, for me it was also a blessing in disguise because I met the woman who became my wife after time living in Belfast we then relocated to live here in Krakow and I've learned to blend in with the culture, the language, the Polish food and many other aspects of life.

There is something very powerful in the saying "It is better to give than to receive". You'll also have to think about this one for a few moments till it sinks in: Isn't 'comfort' the number one thing we all want the most?. i.e. enjoyable situations, painless situations, stress free situations? 'Love' 'religion' come under 'comfort'.

@James Brewer I was 18 in 1970. It was a great time for me. Got married in 72. Divorced in 76. With 2 kids. Life changed then.x Never found that love again. My ex abandoned his kids. He is now on his 3rd marriage with a mistress who followed him since 1978. He only married her 2 years ago through her begging. Since divorce it has been a big struggle but I managed to get a job and a nursery for the kids. And just got on with it. But there was nothing like 1968 when I met my ex and life was just so wonderful because I was with the man I loved.

I’m 47 and have faced death twice in the last ten years. Ten years ago it was a very serious accident, that left me with a permanent disability with my right leg. With that came chronic pain. Three years ago I had a pulmonary embolism that also tried to take me out. Three blood clots on my lung and one in my leg. Which has left me with some mild lung damage. I could have written this very same TED Talk. I have learnt all the same lessons as Paddy. I live each day with so much love, joy and gratitude. Truth be told, I have never been happier.

Now that my parents both passed and my sister I am left with 3 sisters and no friends. 2 sisters are over 1500 miles away and 1 is 10 minutes away and needs serious therapy and no one can reason with her. Not even Doctors. It’s so sad. I have a diner 35 years and love all my guests and look forward to each one coming in. But since Covid-19 everything has changed and I am almost broke trying to keep the doors open and losing money daily. I will lose my tiny condo, my car and be homeless. I went from being loving everyone to feeling life is unfair and now I am numb to everything. This talk Patrick gave made me smile. I miss having friends.

I had this show up by chance via auto play. I wasn't attacked but was critically ill to the point doctors told me very plainly that I wasn't going to survive or leave the hospital - this was it for me. I was 30 and there were so many things that I had planned to do and see still ahead of me. I went through so many emotions I didn't know existed or could even occur simultaneously. This broke me. But I had someone in my life who I loved more than words could express and when they came in to see me later that day I told them what I was told but made them a promise - so long as I had a breath in me I would fight and wouldn't give up no matter how difficult it was. I made this promise because the time we had together meant more to me than anything I had ever done and we had been together 10 years and that went by so fast. I soon was unable to speak in a way that made sense but they sat with me and just carried on these conversations and never let on their concerns that I couldn't speak. Soon after I needed major surgery but was so sick they couldn't find a surgeon willing to operate so I was placed on life support and into a medically induced coma. They sat with me and would speak to me knowing that I was not there but did so to give me comfort and said even then I would squeeze their hand. I had doctors try to convince me to be transferred to another hospital because they were still unsure what was wrong. I spent 6 months in intensive care and most of a year in a hospital with months of learning to walk again. I went through chemo, couldn't do anything for myself and this person was there every free moment they had by my side through the absolute worst life could throw. 11 years have past since this and I am still permanently disabled from my fight, have trouble walking, can't get up if I fall but they are still there. Never complaining. They could have walked away but love is what gave me the will to fight. All I wanted was more time together with this person and fought for that love. Had I not had someone in my life that I loved so intensely I wouldn't be here and I now live every day like it's my last because I have been living on borrowed time for over a decade. I spend time with my loved ones, I'm honest with myself and others because I learned that the stresses of life never mattered. It was the little things in life that were truly memorable that were important. It was love that mattered to me as well. And I try every day to be grateful for the day, try not to complain about my difficulties or pains but to accept that they are part of my journey, and tell those I love how much they mean to me and why they mean so much to me. My life is about love and I have honestly never been happier

Many people who die of old age are recorded as 'knowing it's time' and passing on (Prince Phillip was said to have been quite clear he was on the way out). So I think the question is with merit, if still theoretical.

For years now, I still wonder WHY only in the 'frame' of a tragedy do we realize that "We Are All Connected By The Power Of Love"? Why is it that only then, for the most part, we can truly come together with some of our loved ones that we've estranged ourselves from, with long-forgotten friends, with strangers, and even with so-called 'enemies'? Why do we need a meteor to hit Terra for ALL of us to be ONE?

“Growing” is a process for EVERY living thing.

[@amazingpolishhistory]

I can only describe it as an insight of such profound strength that I would be unable to live in it in the real world. If I was there all the time I would be unable to function. I still need to cut my toenails, go to the toilet and scratch various itches ;)

[@thecobaltroom]

@@Arty_left Shouldn't love be part of the 'baseline/foundation' of all humans instead of a 'growing proces'? Now come to think of it, perhaps is just that that wipes it out, the growing process, to later be regained ... hopefully for most. Just a humble opinion.

I am currently on this journey with both of my parents. A long and very painful goodbye. Why, as intelligent beings would we allow the people we love who are NOT going to get better, to suffer, and go into financial ruin, not to mention the emotional toll it takes on the entire family. Why are we adults, responsible for making our own decisions, but can't when it comes to the end of life. We treat our pets with more dignity than we do our human loved ones. Makes no sense to me.

TBI survivor here. Head injury is no joke. You have nothing but problems 24 7 365 for the rest of your life. So you isolate. Bunker. Hide. You don't wanna be around people. Esp when u have an episode. I'm still alive and love each day like it's my last and first. I'm alive today. Thank you.

God was with you God was giding you particuarly when you were in hospital. That love is God his love for you and us all. The coach Peter sounded somewhat like peter from the Bible was "the coach ". To help you understand God /Jesus for what he did for you and is all when he died and rose again from the dead and that he loves you and everyone so much that he did that for us all. So that who ever believes in God/Jesus will have everlasting life. When we say yes to christ. God bless you and may he keep you and everyone you love safe and well and are kept in the love and grace of the Lord now and forever.

There is no god, jesus, or satan. Never was & never will be. It's nothing more than a memory trace (a belief)

Thank you, I have terminal cancer and will die soon I am thinking that I do not understand what life means if it does have meaning. Paddy Ney was stuck in the head and nearly killed over the divisions created in peoples minds because they have not found meaning to life. They think they have found meaning in some religious or political movement that puts them in opposition to other people that derive meaning from different isms. What if this is true? People should not be divided because life is a singular movement, therefor the divisions that we are erroneously creating should not exist. So being right or wrong about an issue that should not exist is really meaningless. If everyone understood this conflict would end.
