Today I was reminded of life itself.
That no matter how much we do and plan with it, it’s always
fragile,
and today, I kinda have a grasp of the meaning of it.
Fragile, that it could break or be taken away, just like that.
Maybe it’s just me, but I always hear, that “life is short.”
Today, I found out that a lecturer from my Pre-U course
(CIMP), passed away due to some misunderstanding, which cost him his life. And he
had no fault of any sort.
A friend of mine posted in FB saying,
“This picture
really bring tears down my cheek... how can such an adventurous sporty and open
minded person like him die so early? all he wants is to travel around the world
and live the moment. I respect you sir you are really my inspiration.
“
What he said was so true. He was just out on a holiday an
out of a sudden, the next thing he knew was that he was fighting for his life. It
really hurts to see an individual so outgoing
and cool, to just come to an end like
that.
I didn’t know Mr.Pelland personally, but from seeing the
lives that he touched and the people he has changed, it truly gave me the
impression that he IS a great man. Doing
what he can and did what he wanted with an open heart and mind. I respect him
as an individual that was able to truly help and change people.
And for that, he would truly be my definition of real ‘coolness’.
Another thing that strike me today, was the fact that my
grandma has high blood pressure.
It might not seem like a huge issue, but if I actually think about it, I could
have lost my grandma today as well.
She’s 78 but acting like she’s 60. And I’m happy to see that
she is still as active as most grandmas out there. I ain’t dissing anyone’s
grandma, but I bet you love them as much as I love mine. The thought of losing
her, is really unbearable.
I was supposed to just drop something off today and be off. I
had a long day myself, and wanted to take a rest from a long day, till I found
out. And I wanted to stay as long as I can, to really enjoy her presence as if
it was her last.
Life itself is really fragile.
Say what it’s needed, and I guess I have said what needs to
be said.
In the end, it’s all said and done.
here.we.go.
