As time passes by

 

When I was a child my grandmother was not so old; now that I have grown up when I look at her I notice that she has got so old. I also realized that my parents are getting old and there is almost no black hair left. All of a sudden I felt that this means I am getting old too and it made me frightened.  Nobody likes to get old but this is life. It has been in this way and is going to be as long as we live on this planet.

We were born one day,  then we were child and young ; now we are adults and we may have the chance of living a few years longer to become old. Then I thought it’s just so amazing. How lucky I am to see my parents getting old, to watch my kids grow older so there is nothing to be afraid of.  

There were so many innocent kids who never got the chance of becoming older and so many adults who were not lucky to see their kids turning to become youth.

I must be grateful to God for giving me this opportunity and try to enjoy and live every moment to its full.

For those who never got the chance to fall in love, for those who never see their own kids, for those who were so young but were killed for their beliefs, for those who were on their way to get succeed but left so soon, may God rest their souls in peace, amen.

  • Yes, we need to say our grace and thankful to the Almighty because we are still given the chance to live in  this life. To be able to feel sadness before happiness, to feel sickness before being healthy. To feel life before death. It's the circle of life. Embrace it with an open heart and open arms.
