Our precious yet taken for granted WEALTH

Just last night (April 1,2009) we came from our neighbor's funeral. It was a sudden death. Ate Chit is like a Auntie to me and my sister. She was fond of us when we're little. Our families we're one of the occupants in the neighborhood so we've been neighbors for ages.

She unexpectedly passed away that even at the last moment she spared her family to be of a bother which her family yearn for a chance that they could have at least tend her to show how much they care.

I spoke to one of the family member and she confessed that she's very regretfull. She's sorry for the chance of hugging her, thanking for the unconditional love to her nieces and nephew and telling " Ate Chit I LOVE YOU."

The irony of life.... Trap in the so called vicious cycle- if I could have said this and done that while I still have the chance. We are all guilty of this. Guilty of the lost time we could have declare and shown our love.

When we still have the free and myriad opportunity we never mind it. Once it slip away as if we would like to trade everything we own just to spin the hand of time backwards thus spend the most of it.

When our loved ones are just breath away we seem not to care. We take everything for granted. Allowing each day passes just like that. Thinking the people whom we love are merely around the corner and they are always there the moment we need them. No need to say thank you and I love you. No hugs and kisses because we are too lax assuming we have all the time of this world. We are too proud assuming each tick of the clock is within our control.

We are consumed by trivialities of everyday life that's why we mislook our families, friends and those people close to us which exactly within our reach.

TIME is our precious and most valuable wealth, yet the fact is we constantly take it for granted. Every moment we took for granted is what chance of a lifetime we wasted. Though how much you're sorry of the lost time and how much you cry. Sorry too because it won't come back anymore.

The tick of the clock won't wait us it will go on and on forever. Time could be your ally or enemy it's up to you how you spend the most of it.

How we make use of our time will either make us rich to enjoy with our family.

Or make us poor whick keep us work and work until you're family is much of a stranger to you.

So, that night I hug my mother. I realize to show my love and gratitude before it's too late.
