I have read an article wrote by Na Nek some time ago. That idea came back to my mind today. What he wrote is somewhat in line with the words of Buddha about being prepared as you never know when your time has come. มรณานุสติ
Average age of people is 60 years. Now I am 27. So I have 33 years left and that is 12,045 days and only 1,720 weeks!! That means I only have a thousand and seven hundrad Saturday nights to stay out late and enjoy with family and friends. It is not that much.
There are so many places I still want to visit, so many things I want to do, so many books I have never read, so many songs I want to listen, so many movies I want to see. There are still feelings I have never expressed even though I should. There are things have never experiences.
This reminds me that time is not something to waste but should make it worthwhile. Everybody is only here shortly. Why hurt/hate each other, why being sad, why do things you don't even want to do, why do things just to kill time...why not enjoy the time, why wait. We haven't got that much!
When you love someone, tell them. It might just not meant to be or it might turn out so incradible. Say things that you want to say. Do things that you want to do. You might not have another chance tomorrow. When it is too late, you will be sorry. Show your love ones how much you love and care for them and do things that matter.
When you do things, do them best. Try to...forgive and forget. No resentment. No regret. Cos that is a waste of time and energy...Just move on.
I look back at those pictures of some years back. I realize how much things change over time. People and places around me and even myself have changed...there are some people who used to be close but today we almost never talk anymore...Me...I also change a lot in and outside.
But there is at least one thing that has never changed: It has always been my mum and dad who are always there to give me love and support that I need wherever, whenever. Actually, they are my true confident in life. I would always know and sure that whatever I do/wherever I am, they will always love me. Their love has never been less. They love me for who I am and never get tired of me. Knowing that and having them in my heart, I feel firm and secure. It is the best kind of love ones can get.
Anyhow, our life consists of different pieces of pazzles. They all have different shapes and sizes, large or small. I know I always have pieces from my parents which I consider them large. But my picture of life will also never be completed without those other pieces.
"No I am not complete without you"
So, thank you for also giving me your love and coming into my life. May, JuneMay 19, 2007
I would like to congratulate a just wedding couple Daniel and Erin! http://mckenna-halsey.weddingannouncer.com/ctext-601201.html
I only met Daniel in person a few days during organizing the world congress (AFITA/WCCA2004). He was one of the participants (and only one that I still keep in touch). He has such a kind personality. We are distent friends who only talk once in a blue moon. When I met Deniel, he didn't know Erin yet. So I heard their story from the start. It just feel so nice to hear how their relationship grow over time since their first met till engagement and this day, the wedding! Congratulations...

And yes, we both learned again a lot. I really agree with you that this will eventually improve "us". Going through all these together brings us closer and reflects love that exists.

Wow, I just checked P'Golf's space with all those pictures from honeymoon trip in Maldives. So so beautiful...cute...and sweet!! hahaha
Love is in the air!!
Also, now I finished with the AMC work. Final product has been handed in. Only the presentation left at the end of next week. I hope I will get at least 7 or 8 for the mark. Now it is good that things are finishing step by step...soon enough I will get the degree!! GREAT!! I can't wait to finish things.
