Shukr..for death

'Death will reach a man when three events coincide; he reaches his place of death, he has consumed his last morsel and he has earned the last of his decreed livelihood.'

I'm not sure whether that's a hadith or not, but I searched high and low for it and could not find anything to indicate as such. The first time I heard that however, a cold shiver ran through my spine and straight through my heart. You know that feeling you get when you're so terrified it hurts?
I mean, it could happen any moment. My time in this world could come to an end tomorrow, this evening, right now. Am I ready?
