Question

Precis of this paragraph
Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow
Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness,
vigor, and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant
panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the
epicurean motto of "Eat, drink, and be merry' but most people would be chastened by the certainty of
impending death. In stories, the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune
but almost always his sense of values is changed. He becomes more appreciative of the meaning of life
and its permanent spiritual values. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived in the
shadow of death ring a mellow sweetness to everything they do. Most of us, however, take life for
granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we
are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an
endless vista. So we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life. The same
lethargy. I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate
hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation
apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered
impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears
take in all sights and sounds hazily, without concentration and with little appreciation​
