today in the morning, as i was having breakfast
and watching powerpuff girls,
i overheard my nenek's conversation with my uncle,
as they were flipping the day's malay newspaper.
interested, i went over and took a peek.
it was about de demise of a young scdf personnel.
an accident while answering the call of duty.
i didnt noe who the guy was except all that was
mentioned in the paper,
but somehow it made me ponder a bit.
most of us, at this age,
while we are in our late teens, or early adulthood,
we think abt either our studies, careers, relationships,
money. maybe there's exceptions, but generally,
tt's de situation.
i'm like tt too. i think of de degree that i'm aiming for,
de career i'm gonna build, the love of my life,
de family i'll be setting up. u noe the works.
but wad if we wun get to experience all tt?
wad if He wanted us to go, maybe tomorrow?
wad if it's not us, but someone dear to us?
how are we gonna cope with the sudden loss,
especially if it's not because of illness,
but rather, a physical mishap?
life, my life, your life... is our borrowed treasure.
it's only human tt we tend to forget tt it's on loan.
that this world is just a pit-stop.
yet, we care about it so much.
you and i both noe tt before long,
this blog entry will be forgotten.
we'll go back to our lives,
try to live our dreams.
i just hope that i'll always bear in mind tt
we'll all go, one day.
and since we'll never noe when tt day is,
treasure our loved ones,
and let's all work towards improving ourself
day by day, so tt when we pass on, we'll be somewhat ready.
death is never am easy topic to talk abt,
but it happens. to everyone.
