Answer by Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena for live as if it was your last day?

There is no pretending. It is the fact that you are not sure if this is the last period or not hence what needs to be done in case you die.

No one can plan the time of death and many die unexpectedly. This is what you have to look at. So consider each breath your last as there is a chance that it is very well your last breath hence establish your self in mindfullness.
