#iftodayweremylastday

I have been in a rather melancholic mood of late. And this picture today.. made me think yet again of a friend. Well. A few rather. Whose lives were cut too short.

I'm not Buddhist. Actually, I am Christian. But, I believe the line applies to everyone.

The trouble is that you THINK you have time.

How true. In all honesty. You never really know. And yet at the same time, when you live life completely with abandon, you can be unforgivably selfish too.

#ifitweremylastday I would regret not saying yes.

I guess, we can't reverse time. And even if there were some way to alter the fabric of space/time continium- I probably would not be able to afford the ticket any way.

Why do we do what we do?

Do you believe that everything is fate. Is destined?

Do you have faith? And do you have... Sabali?

Ecclesiastes 3

New International Version (NIV)

A Time for Everything

There is a time for everything,
    and a season for every activity under the heavens:
    a time to be born and a time to die,
    a time to plant and a time to uproot,
    a time to kill and a time to heal,
    a time to tear down and a time to build,
    a time to weep and a time to laugh,
    a time to mourn and a time to dance,
    a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
    a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
    a time to search and a time to give up,
    a time to keep and a time to throw away,
    a time to tear and a time to mend,
    a time to be silent and a time to speak,
    a time to love and a time to hate,
    a time for war and a time for peace.
What do workers gain from their toil? 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet[a] no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. 14 I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.
