Though it's given from the very beginning that death is a natural thing, it still scares us the most. Right now, the life span of a person is obviously shortened. They say it's because of the food that we have right now. It's all processed. So, you'll be very lucky if you reached at the age of 80 seeing the reality of our world right now.
Last month, a friend had a motorbike accident and while talking to him, he said he doesn't have any regrets, and he is still willing to drive his motorbike once he is well. He said he just need to replace his
motorcycle exhaust systems , and everything will be back to normal. Well, except himself since he is still on a wheelchair, and he will have another operation next month. My effort of telling him that "life is short" is very futile and he should stop doing his dangerous hobby. But, well, I guess it's his idea of living this borrowed time to the fullest.
And within a span of days, I learned 2 people having cancer. It's so sad and I can't help but cry and pray for them.
And these kind of news make you reflect of your own life. I tend to value more on what I have right now, and spend each precious time to what matters most. It's ok to feel negative things sometimes, but, I am practicing to let things go faster than before. Though it's easy to say "I forgive you", but I still pray that I will be more forgiving because I know that forgiveness is more than those words.
These are my Saturday thoughts. Happy weekend!
