Life is so short
Just went to sgh to visit Patrick (dinosaur exhibition supervisor) who met with a accident at Mersing, Johor while coming back from Tioman to Sg. Thank God he’s alive…but what about the bus driver who was sitting directly in front of him? What about the 6 year old kid who was behind him…? Both their lives were taken away from them just like that…
What about the 5000 over ppl who did not survive the earthquake in Indonesia?
When I think about how short life really is, the things that we ’struggle’ with do not seem so important anymore. After the very last breath, how much money you have made, how well you have done in your school/workplace, how much respect and love you have from the ppl around you don’t seem to matter much anymore. Why must we strive for things which are temporary? What is the very thing that is important eternally?
What would happen once we die? Nothing? Is there even something which is of eternal value?
If life is max max 100 over years, why hold on to it so tightly when we all know that eventually we will leave our dying bodies?
It is ironic that these things happen when i’ve been just pondering on how all our final destinations are not before our physical timers go off but after, and how we all are just travelers on this earth. Wow, this means that i’ve been on a perpetual holiday since day 1!
“Home is where the heart is.” May my heart be in heaven while i’m travelling and figuring out this map (bible) :P
