How do you live, knowing you’re going to die?

Honest question.

This last week I have learned that two of the people I work with have been diagnosed with terminal cancer. How do you live with that?

As a believer in Christ I know where I’m going and might actually be excited about this prognosis, but one of these associates is a Jehovah’s Witness and the other is a former Catholic, agnostic (probably).

I fear eternity for them both. I know the JW will probably have peace with this, but my friend that doesn’t have salvation, how does he handle this. How would I counsel him in this situation. I don’t know. It really does bear studying and perhaps I will and write a post here about it, but for now I’m left puzzled.
