funeral for a friend

this evening, I went to a friend's funeral.
and it triggered my mind into many thoughts.
life is hard.
life is vulnerable.
life is precious.
they were saying, "we just saw him to months ago, alive and jumping...".
who knew that two months later, he'll meet with a fatal accident and die off?
he never knew he was going to leave the people he loved so much behind, so soon.
he never knew that he only had two months left at the time when he was hanging out with his friends.
he's gone,
and never going to come back.
he's gone,
and every person who loves him is going to grief.

if he had known,
if we had known,
will he do what he did?
will we do what we didn't?

we know how life can be a bitch but we must also realise that life is magical.
its a gift from God. its a luxury many cannot afford to enjoy.
treasure your life.
think before you speed.
think about the people around you who love you so dearly.

if you die today,
will you die with regrets?
I deffinately would.
certainly, die with regrets.
