Live a Life for Today

Sometimes I felt very sad listening to the old songs or passing through places I once been. The old memories came back but the people in the memories were no longer there. I just lost my childhood best friend of cancer who lived so near yet lost contact for years. I was too busy to make contacts until her family found me because it was her last wish to meet me again. She held my hands and tears rolling down, unable to speak. Just 3 week later she passed away. Most people never prepared to die until death comes. This is how most people live, chasing after tomorrow and never enjoy whats we are today. When we were in school, we wished we graduated quickly and get a job.When we were working, we look forward to our retirement day. When we retired, our life almost gone and we are near to grave. We never enjoy a day so call TODAY. We always tell our children to think of FUTURE. And future is infinite. We are BUSY all the times. We never stop by to just look at things around us; such as flowers blooming, birds singing, or listen to the insects chipping. BUSY is a deathly disease that strikes most of us today. 50 years past by so quickly, when I look back, I just couldn't remember a day when I was idle. My son gave me this idea when I asked him one day; 'What are you doing son?' he said," Idle...'Now I am looking forward to the day I would be idle. I had signed up for op 58, so have to add another 3 years to the day, IDLE. Let hope I won't die before this day....
