Lately I have been reading a lot about death. Okay, I know I am being morbid again, but it makes me realise that life is so fragile. One moment we can be happily dining with our loved ones, and the next moment we can just collapse and stop breathing just like that.
What if we die without a chance to fulfil anything we set out to do? What if I go out later and get knocked down by a car, or hit by an object someone threw from a high-rise, or trip and fall and knock my head, and die just like that?
Life is fragile indeed. Imagine you come into this world, without any care and worries, without any knowledge except to cry and scream. Suddenly you can go by in life, gaining knowledge, experience, starting to care and worry, yet at the end of your lifespan, you may not even have achieved anything much.
Two weeks into 2008, and what have I done? Job wise, I am coping better. Study wise I have signed up for modules and getting the books. All I need now is to wait for the start of the semester in late January.
Religion wise, I have been praying more, and will be going for the nine-week Easter Novena starting next Saturday. As for the rest of my resolutions, I have yet to do much, so I really must get something done.
I have one more resolution to add - and that is to be a better person. To be more focused and live life to the fullest, to try to achieve my dreams and goals. After all, I do not want to suddenly die and not get anything done in my life!
