The brevity of life

Sometimes, I can understand why some people don't save. But to the world, they seem stupid and highly unwise.
Save, save, save! Pile up more. Keep them for the rainy day.'

We save our best clothes for a special day when we would get to wear them.
We buy clothes and keep them in our wardrobes for several months, waiting for that wedding invitation.
We save our best shoes for such occasions and some of us have as many as 100 pairs of shoes, but we save 98 for special occasions and wear 1 or 2 every single day till d soles come off.

We have been dying to go to that Chinese restaurant in town, but we plan to go when we have 'enough' money.

Friend, that day may NEVER come. The wedding invitation may come a day too late. All we have is now. Enjoy the life God has given you now.
Appreciate the ones who are dear to you NOW.
Do what you have always wanted to do NOW.
Love like tomorrow will not come, NOW.

Everyday it hits me how short life is. Most who die, never expect death at that time.
Life's lesson today: live, love, breathe, savour every moment, laugh! 'No regrets'......may those be the words I speak on the day I die.
