BEFORE I DIE: A Pact

What would you do differently if you knew that in one year you were going die?

This is the dilemma best friends Renata, Saffron and Charlotte face, after making a pact to end the discontent in their lives.

Ending the pain is simple: after their proposed last year on Earth they plan to take a plunge off Deadman’s Cliff. Their reasoning is even simpler: if a person hasn’t sorted her life out by age thirty out chances are she never would. Renata, Saffron and Charlotte were simply over days that spun around like a broken record.

They could choose to spend the next fifty years battling torturous discontent or exchange it for one year of freedom. Fast and furious versus silent and slow – either way in the end they must go. So the countdown is now on. No more time to waste procrastinating or crying over spilled milk.

Instead over the next year the friends do whatever it takes to shed their discontent, all with the knowledge there are no limits because pretty soon they won’t exist in this world. The truth is sometimes it's only when we reach the end that we learn how to live. And sometimes losing our mind is the only way to stay sane...
