T.h.e. p.a.t.h. o.f. l.i.g.h.t.s ..()..
There...the routine life is back again...
It was a wonderful diwali. Not because of all the merry making, not because of all the money that i have pocketed so far (which by the way is getting lesser and lesser each year), not because of all the fire crackers (my uncle spent close to Rm 150 for chinese crackers, about 2 metres long which messed up the whole porch once blown). I was thinking to myself diwali seem to hold no meaning for me each year until two days later, a relative of mine passed away. he slipped and fell to his death.
I sat there in the funeral, thinking. There i was, not enjoying the days of my life to the fullest, lamenting, complaining, sighing without realising that anytime, it can be my time to go. It hurt me so bad to see his young son, playing around the coffin, running about, not realising his father is no longer around.
On the same day, i visited a very very close relative on mine and i was shocked to see him all skin and bones. i later found out from my dad that he was suffering from cancer, was too weak to go for an operation, and therefore is just waiting until his time is up.
Life is so extremely short. Death may come anytime. Let's celebrate life like it's diwali everyday. let's put every single pieces of this big jigsaw puzzle together to complete a beautiful picture.
