Unpredictable Life

939 views. 2009-8-13 16:45

Life is unpredictable, and sometimes, without any signs or predicts, the day just ends.

Yesterday afternoon, when I got home, the first message I got from my dad was that one of cousins was unfortunately diagnosed with liver cancer days ago, and since he was already in the end stage when was checked, he got little chance to recover. I was really shocked that moment, because he was only 36 years old and now he is dying, and I still remember that last time I saw him, there was no signs about him getting cancer. What a joke life has played.

The same afternoon when I left my uncle’s home and come back home, I passed by a tomb district on the way, and looking at it, I could not help but started to think that among so many people buried there, how many of them had already known that they were going to die and got prepared for the very moment before death? How many of them were able to accept death without any regret? How many of them were smiling when the day finally came and was still able to console his family? I have no idea about the answers.

I then imagined what it would be like if I was lying in one of these tombs, cold and breathless, and in the shape of ashes and I could not help but thought of the word: horrible. Lying there, being cold, breathless and even fleshless is till now beyond my acceptance.

However, I find one thing that I can do in the future to get prepared for my day, that is to live everyday to its full and leave as little regret as possible. If what will happen tomorrow is beyond my knowledge, I can seize today at least.

good writing. You are right by saying that we should seize today. we live at the present, not in the past, not in the future.  We can't be 100% certain about our future, what will we look like in 10 years, or 20 years, but we are quite certain about  the important issues that can shape our future in 10 years. What you o today will define what you will become tomorrow. Forget the cancer and move forward

Priyanka: You are right...Make every day count,apperciate every moment.
yeah, that's what we can do.

yeah,you got that right!Life is not like our imagination,sometimes it's like a long movie,we just actors or actress,furthermore,the fate is our direct.what's more,we care about the result seems like a actor who wanna reward by Oscar.That's why we always make a some stuff to big deal.However,we have no time to enjoy the process of life,never step by step,only run as soon as possible....So the good scences are all faded away when we're chasing the virtual stuff.Remember like u have shared:Life is unpredictable..

yeah, this is life and i agree we should run for it---seize the day,seize time.If we have no idea how life will change the next second, we can at least seize the present moment and leave ourselver no regret.

Something unpredictable may happen at any time in your life and misfortune or felicity maybe occur at any moment,but no matter what will happen,it's not important;we only need to grasp nonce carefully and do everything before us diligently to obtain feelings of happiness and joy.
