The letter of the girl who died of cancer makes people look back at their way of life

On January 4,Holly Butcher succumbed to bone cancer at the age of 27. Before her death, the Australian girl wrote a letter and asked her relatives to post it on Facebook after she left this life.

According toNewsof Australia, bThe letter conveys the message of a young girl's change in outlook on life, forced to face death while having so much hope for life and plans.

"It's not normal to have to accept death at the age of 26. I wanted to ignore it and you would have too. Day by day, you just hope time continues to go by, until the unexpected happens. Life is fragile, precious, unpredictable and every day is a gift to be cherished. I'm only 27 and I don't want to go yet," she wrote.

After taking some time to reflect on how she would live if she survived her illness, Butcher decided to share her advice with those who are still experiencing life.Just a few days after appearing online, Butcher's post has attracted more than 57,000 shares.

As a reminder not to sweat the small stuff, Butcher tells his readers that they won't worry about everyday problems when they're on their deathbed.

"Maybe you were stuck in a terrible traffic jam today or couldn't sleep because your angel baby was crying or the barber cut your hair too short. The newly done nails, the "breasts" are too small or the belly is too fat... all are trivial matters. I swear you wouldn't think about any of these things when you know the grim reaper is waiting outside the door.

I'm watching my body slowly wither away and there's nothing I can do to revive it. All I wish for now is to have one more birthday or Christmas with my family or just one more day with my lover or my dog. Just one more," the 27-year-old confided.

Butcher writes that we should use money more meaningfully, spending it on things that make others happy rather than buying things for ourselves.

"When you're dying, you're not going to spend money on going out or buying things you normally like, like a new dress. You'll feel silly thinking that it's worth spending money on new clothes or similar things during your lifetime," she shared.

Instead, says Butcher, buy your friend or family member something like a dress or a beauty product or a piece of jewelry for their upcoming wedding. Take them out for a meal or better yet, cook them a nice meal. Invite them out for coffee. Give or buy them a plant, a massage or a candlelit dinner and tell them how much you love them.

Slowness is something that annoys many people, and Butcher aptly sums up why: because it shows a lack of respect for others and their time - which is very limited.

"Respect other people's time. Don't make them wait because you want them to be on time too. Leave a little early if you're usually late. Friends want to spend time with you, not sit around, waiting, and getting frustrated. Doing so will earn you respect, too," Butcher writes.

While lying in her hospital bed, the young woman also realized that updating her social life diminishes the power of the moment you are truly living.

"Enjoy and live each moment rather than capturing it on your phone screen. Life is not meant to be lived through a screen or to get the perfect picture. Feel each moment for yourself, don't try to caption it for others."

According toNypostButchers' final point is perhaps the most important. Receiving donated blood gave her an extra year of life, and she urges people to donate blood regularly.

"The blood donation gave me an extra year of life - a year I will forever be grateful for with my family, friends and my little dog. The best year of my life."
