"Living my life to the fullest." That has been the motto of life to many others, including myself. Distinctively remembered that this particular line was posted on my Facebook on 10 Nov this year. But what exactly is the meaning behind it all? It beats me some times.
A friend's mum passed away 2 days ago and attended the wake yesterday. It hit me hard, bringing me back to the reality that human lives are just as vulnerable as an ants. Just that ours are a little more glamorous than slogging all the way and carrying food that's 50X our weight. Sorry ants.
I'm sure for a lot of us who want to 'live life to the fullest' will have a bucket list. Do you have it written out and pinned somewhere in your room? I don't. Not for now. Perhaps I'll write it down somewhere real soon. To what extend will you die contently? Such morbid question I am asking...
This is a sequence to a conversation that I had in the office yesterday.
No one will actually remember or care if you're dead or not cos life goes on. That's just how minute you are in this world. Nothing but a mere mortal.
