Time is Short

There are plenty of cliches out there about time, and how precious time is.
Yesterday, when I was sms-ing Sky , I had somehow mentioned to him that this holidays, I tried to do as many things as I had wanted to.  When I texted that 'time is limited', he got rather concerned.

But you know what I mean.
Time is not something that we are able to control.
On an even bigger idea, we know that we are all living on borrowed time - that our hourglasses turned the moment we are born, and that steadily, the sands of time will slip down without us really realising it.

So it is back to choices...
If life is short...how do we choose to live our lives?
Somehow, it is always easier to allow the 'negatives' take over.
That way, we always have something to 'blame' when things do not go right.
We have allowed to feel low and sorry...for we are the 'victims'...
Really?

This is not a holier-than-thou kind of writing.
This is something I want to think about as the year comes to an end,and the new year is about to begin.

What if...2009 is my last year? Or the next?
That I will never know.
But I hope I will be able to feel grateful for a life fulfilled.

Dear God,
Thank you for letting me see another sunrise.
Let me live it to the fullest...in Your ways.
Ameen
