Gone but never Forgotten

There are many things in life which can wait for time. People say, everything has its own time. But is it really true? Perhaps these hold true with the benefits of hindsights. In truth life is about time. Time waits for no one. It is up to us really, to find the right time for the right thing or the right thing for the perfect time. Indeed when the time passes us only memories will be left behind, good or bad. At times, it is gone for a while but other times, time is gone forever, no time to recover or re-discover. It is either thankful, remorse or regret that will be embedded in the remaining time of life. Indeed 'Demi Masa, Manusia itu kerugian...'

Another Chance

Often times, one would beg for another chance when he or she realizes that the current chance is not going to give the desired results. Some people do get another chance while others may not be lucky to have another bite at the cheery. For instance, in the education system, one has to go through several examinations. Most are minors while others are majors and could be life turning points. Because of these exams, some dropped off while others took off. In any case many do not recognize the fact that all these are stop points for one to reflect. These are milestones in life if the missed chances of the previous phases are used to improve and prepare for the next chance. It does not matter what it takes to prepare one self. There are many rags to riches stories whereby one fall propelled to greatness in life.

Having gone through many phases of failures with one success in the end may make one to take things for granted. Yes, all the missed chances are easily forgotten once one managed to succeed given the time. It is like in a football game, a striker may shoot at the goal many times. Eventually he manages to make one count and the team wins the match. Unfortunately, getting so many chances is only relevant as long as one is alive. We only have one life to live in this world no matter what people may say about cats having nine lives or what. The question is which one of our chances can be considered another chance or even the last chance? Unless and until we turn every single another chance in life as the last chance we may not even have time to regret. The bottom line is therefore to be mindful of life, cherish God given gifts, be thankful and grateful to Him and be the best person who can be real benefits to others like a candle in the darkness of night!

A Year Full of Refections

It was indeed a significant phase in my life. It is like a tipping point when a series of events took place in your life, one after another. While one would wish a mixture of good and bad, it is not always controllable. One has to go deep into understanding life to be able to comprehend what could be the most important lesson in one's life. Indeed so many things to reflect on and so many angles to approach. At the end of that, it could be your another chance, if not second or third chance taking as the beginning of a renewed life full of opportunities to atone for the past travelled past!
