What If You Were the Last Person on Earth

Imagine a quiet Sunday morning. You wake up, stretch your limbs, and open the window to a beautiful sunny day. But wait a minute, a busy street that is normally full of people is completely empty. Where is everybody? It seems like you're the only human left on this planet, so

what

are you going to do? Well, I guess the answer is

what

ever you want! If the world is your oyster, this is uniquely YOURS! Every crazy idea, crazy dream or anything else you have in mind! Get in the fastest sports car and take a ride on the highway.

Yes, no traffic! Play golf from the roof of a skyscraper! Why not? Who's going to say anything about you breaking some windows with your golf ball? Have you always wanted to live in a mansion? Well, now you can! You have a whole world of opportunities and nothing stops you from enjoying each and every one of them! After all that fun and absolute joy leaves your system, you start to wonder "what's next?" Well, maybe it's time to try to figure out what really happened and why everyone disappeared. You can try to find someone else. What if you're not completely alone?

You can search the city for others, but in this scenario, you can search the entire world and not find a single soul. Yes, it sounds a little scary, I know. So now it's time to move on to more serious questions, like how are you going to survive in this empty kingdom of yours... The first thing you need to figure out is food and drinking water. Sure, you'll have everything you need for a while, but some produce will start to go bad pretty quickly, like fruits and vegetables. Eat them first! After all, no one controls the power plants that keep grocery store refrigerators running, so they'll shut down sooner rather than later.

Well, what about the water? At first, try to find all the bottles in all the nearby stores and bring them to your house. The bad news is that all this clean bottled water will eventually run out, so you'll have to figure out how to filter water on your own in the future. After spending a couple of days, weeks, or even months enjoying all these perishable foods, it's time to think about your future long-term supplies. Without electricity to keep refrigerators and freezers running, rice, beans, and canned foods will be your best friends. After a while, you'll probably need to learn how to grow food yourself, so don't wait until you run out of supplies to start improving your farming skills!

Medical supplies are also very important. You should go to as many pharmacies as you can to get future supplies in case of an emergency. And you may want to be more careful since there will be no doctors to help you in case of serious injuries! So yeah, maybe skip the parkour in this world of yours... Farming and DIY water filtration aren't the only things you need to learn. You see, right now you depend on A LOT of people without even realizing it. But in a world where you are the

last

human being on

earth

, you will need to learn crucial survival skills, such as hunting, first aid, cooking, etc.

You would have to learn many things by yourself. Have you ever had the feeling that you don't find time for reading and self-education? Well, now you have a lot and entire libraries and bookstores full of knowledge! Yes, there will be no Internet in this world, so you have to go back to how your grandfather did it! It will be very difficult at first, but eventually you will become the ultimate survival expert! Another important thing for you is communication. You may consider yourself an introvert right now, but humans are social creatures by nature. But what can you do if there is no one to talk to?

Maybe it's time to get a dog. Or several? Hey, how about you have your own

person

al zoo? Don't forget that you now rule this planet, so it's up to you! Before you run to the zoo and open all the cages, keep in mind that all these wild animals may see you as a long-awaited meal instead of a conversation partner! Maybe just keep a dog or cat to deal with the loneliness... Or a parrot, at least it would respond to you! The next step will be your future refuge. Don't get me wrong, hanging out in some cool mansion or palace is absolutely fine.

You can do it for years if you want! Or you can go to different luxury hotels and live there like royalty. You might even have a new home for each new day! But that whole “living your luxury fantasy” thing will get old after a while. Furthermore, in about a decade, all of these buildings will become quite unsafe without regular maintenance to keep them running. Maybe you'll move away from the city? The good news is that you can go wherever you want. There are no borders, immigration laws, passports or anything stopping you! Ah, but remember, to go somewhere, you need to find fuel sources.

All these abandoned vehicles will be useless in the coming years because their fuel will run out. Therefore, you will probably have to choose a place to settle permanently. I don't know about you, but I would go somewhere with a moderate climate. Tornadoes,

earth

quakes, hurricanes, and blizzards are the

last

thing I want to worry about while trying to survive on my own! Speaking of the weather, clothing is something you need to think about and plan for. Of course, at first you can go to all the stores and try on fun and weird clothes, or super stylish ones!

But after a while you may want to focus on practicality. Make sure you have clothes for every season and plenty of warm clothes and blankets. Even if you decide to settle in a place where it's always hot, you never know when it might get cold! Well, I guess all this talk about surviving as the only human left on Earth can be quite frustrating and depressing. But let's look at the positive side! Imagine all the ways you can entertain yourself! Gathering knowledge and skills doesn't have to be just a matter of survival. You can learn to paint, make ceramics, try your hand at sculpture, or even write your own story!

How would you call it? “The last human being on Earth”? "In my own world"? Sounds great, right? Additionally, you may need to practice your language skills, especially if your only conversation partner is a parrot who just repeats everything you say and asks for crackers all the time.
