act now

I've been thinking a lot recently. Oh, or was it all along? Thinking of how life had been and sometimes thinking how life should be. Haven't you been doing so, once a while, if not all the while.

Sometimes, we don't have the privilege to go around the world just to see how things could be done. But we could read about what things have happened. And with the technology now, there's no way we can't venture out in this virtual world, anywhere we want to be, to seek what we want to know. 

Life won't be holding back for us, nor is there any time machine that could bring us forward and back. Which is actually good, really. Why? So that we don't have time to keep on regretting the things that we've done. Humankind is greedy sometimes and tend to be unsatisfactory, no matter what life they are living in. So, having a one way ticket ensure that we just keep on moving forward, and not lingering about.

Whether life is good or not, people said it depends on how you lived it. Did you live your life, or let your life drift by? I come across some good quotes (actually search them on purpose) and hope they'll become some guidances. Good luck! 

Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.  - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.  - Thomas Jefferson

The only impossible journey is the one you never begin.  - Tony Robbins

51th day of 2021

So fast that 50 days of year 2021 have gone, and now we are into the 51st day. One year only has 364 days, and almost 14% gone by.
If gauging by the percentage of days passed by, how is the progress of your resolution? Is it also progressing at the same rate?
Or it is still at ground zero? 

Today was shared a photo taken ten years ago, as this has been the routine that FB has been reminding us as well. I wondered the me of ten years ago, would have imagine what me of now will be doing. Sometimes it is nice to relinquish the memories, but how often now, do we dream of the future. Things we are doing now seems to tied us up with what is happening now, and made us forget what lies ahead are important too. 

What we sow is what we reap. But we tend to forget, to think ahead of what we want to reap, before we start sowing. That's why sometimes we can't handle the consequences that happened due to the action we did. 

So, think first.

Happy birth-day

Dad, happy birthday. Seems like everyone of us still remember your birthday, even though you have left us. Guess it's because it's one of the dates that we have kept celebrating since we started to have memories.
Just that I wondered if everyone still feel hurtful, when recalling about you? This none of us had ever mentioned or asked about. Some of us may have taken it well. But I don't know, why tears will just whelm up and rolled down, when I thought of you.
Still I'm sure all of us are actually glad that you do not have to suffer in this pandemic, which had you been well, it would be lonely for you, or else, we would not have been able to even send you off, had you been chosen to depart then.
Don't know what's next after death, but may peace be with you, wherever you are.
