Nowadays, I realised how fortunate i am.
The recent killer waves which killed millions of people is devastating.
I felt sad for all those who were affected n many thoughts just came into my mind.
Why did we only realise life's so precious at our last moments? Why did we only cherish our loved ones when met with any misfortune. Is this reality? Is Mother Nature then set to kill?
My thoughts went unanswered.
However, i learnt an important lesson.
I used to n r still worried over many things. Things such as whether i have enough pocket money to survive each wk, my phone bill, my exam results, experiencing a new sch environment, whether i have gain any extra pounds etc etc. The list goes on and on.
But When i compared my problems with those tidal wave victims who had lost their loved ones, lost their home grounds and even lost their way of life. I realised my worries and problems are no big deal at all.
I'm so fortunate.
I couldn't imagaine living without my family, my friends as Life would definitely not be the same anymore. I do quarrelled with these people some other times- I shouted at my parents when they misunderstand me, i argued with friends when things went sour. Sometimes, I even apologised in the end but i guess all was too late.
The hurt had already been inflicted on the other party.
Well, i reckon in this world, we must forgive n forget, learnt to think twice before each actions and live life to the fullest. Unexpected things happened each time and i told myself to be prepared to leave this world with no regrets...
