how fragile is life?

I came back from taiping on wednesday. Went back because my grandpa passed away last saturday, 12 March 2011. I didnt really spend time with my grandpa when he was still alive mainly because i dont speak hokkien and when i was young, my perception is that i dont know what to talk with him. I didnt get to see how wonderful is he. and i regretted it. both of my grandparents are now gone. and i am here, down on earth regretting and crying because i didnt take the initiative to talk to them when they were still alive.

life is fragile. do everything you can, appreciate everyone that God has placed in your life, and when God brings you home, you will see His glory.

when we pass away, everything in our life will be gone. money, car, house and all the things of the world will be gone! then you will be reflecting, did you have good sons and daughters who took care of you when you are growing old or did they threw you to the old folks?, did you live your life to the fullest or did you lead your life miserably?, did you leave this world with people hating you?, did you live your temporary life here on earth appreciating everything that God has blessed you with or did you complain on everything?

i want to start appreciating especially my family, my boyfriend, my friends and other people who walked into my life even for just a while. i want to take care of my mum. she is growing old without me realizing it. i've neglected her for so long. when will i take the step to take care of her? when she couldn't recognised me anymore? she has suffered long enough just to see me happy. i'm not moving to other country so that i can take care of her and spend time with her. a mother longs for their sons and daughters to spend time with them when they are not able to carry on through this world by themselves.

we are their strength when they grow old just as they are our strength when we were young and when we walked through this bumpy road in life.

I miss both of you! =(
