HOW...


how may it felt when the sky came down on your lap one day. how may it felt when they say that your time on earth will end in a short distance and not that far away. will you think about giving up and stop living as you used to do. will you change the way you travel, think and spend the less moments, less days and nights that you've used to. you're kinda lucky in a way for your timed life on earth is broadcast in your unsuspecting hands. some do not know it for God has some other plans. He dole out miracles to some and let them enjoy life for the longest as they can.

life is a circle like the moon and the sun. it turns and turns until it's tired and can no longer spin as it was. life differs though from the two. life can feel, can love and be hurt if you're untrue. as life is also like a plant that there is a time to grow. a time to make others happy with its colorful flowers that bloom at places all year through.

how do you take it when you're being played upon in your eyes. will you dance with the tune set aside to make you move like a butterfly. or will you just sit down until the music stops and silence begins to crawl. until the tune is tired and has played its last note in your ear. for life is like music as well. it has a beginning and an end.

but the thing is how do you take it when someone says that your days are numbered and you could no longer think in a couple of days, weeks, months or years. what would you do if your end is told at your face. will you stop living right there and then. will you lose hope for a cure and get out of the bus of life that you hold dear.

some are lucky that their end comes swift and without pain. some are brave that they go and gamble to fight in the note of serving their country until they breathe their last. young and with fervor and of that nationalistic pride. some are in limbo left in the dark. don't know when the end will come

so how do we deal with the truth that life is timed. shall we count the days and play the roulette as it turns and stops. shall we go on living as it was the last days of our lives, or shall we enjoy the ride and smile and dance and thank God. for being here, given a gift that made you see the magic in the skies. that made you loved, hurt and think of sometimes giving up. what would you do and how, that is the question...HOW...would you live your one and only gift of life...

maybe the answer is in the bible :)
