First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then I was dying to marry and have children.
And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough for
school so i could return to work.
And then I was dying to retire.
And now, I am dying...and suddenly I realize I forgot to live. - Unknown

Great quote. We had a really good "money quote" thread going a few months back. I'll have to look for it and maybe start it up again. there were some great quotes in that one.

I dont really think of it as dying as looking forward to. So the optimistic way of ending this quote should have the "looking forward" to whats beyond this life.
