Hello everyone in Orble Land!
I am so sorry that I have been M.I.A (Missing In Action) for so long, as I have less and less time to do research, not to mention a pile of really good yummy recipes sitting by the side gathering dust before I can post them here.
My bad - too many things to do, too little time.
But I would like to stop by and share with you all this very interesting article I got it from my friend. I believe many out there may already know about this, but I still would love to share with you all, as it serves a reminder for me as well. Enjoy!
Dont wait til tomorrow......
Extracted from a forward email from my friend
A friend of mine opened his wife's underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper wrapped package:
'This, - he said - isn't any ordinary package.'
He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box.
'She got this the first time we went to New York , 8 or 9 years ago. She has never put it on as she was saving it for a special occasion.
Well, I guess this is it.
He got near the bed and placed the gift box next to the other clothing he was taking to the funeral house - his wife had just died.
He turned to me and said:
'Never save something for a special occasion.
Every day in your life is a special occasion'.
I still think those words changed my life.
Now I read more and clean less.
I sit on the porch without worrying about anything.
I spend more time with my family, and less at work.
I understood that life should be a source of experiences to be lived up to, not survived through.
I no longer keep anything.
I use crystal glasses every day....
I'll wear new clothes to go to the supermarket, if I feel like it.
I don't save my special perfume for special occasions, I use it whenever I want to.
The words 'Someday...' and ' One Day...' are fading away from my dictionary.
If it's worth seeing, listening to or doing, I want to see, listen to or do it now...
I don't know what my friend's wife would have done if she knew she wouldn't be there the next morning, this nobody can tell.
I think she might have called her relatives and closest friends.
She might call old friends to make peace over past quarrels.
I'd like to think she would go out for Chinese, her favourite food.
It's these small things that I would regret not doing, if I knew my time had come..
Each day, each hour, each minute, is special.
Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no-one.
If you got this, it's because someone cares for you and because, probably, there's someone you care about.
If you're too busy to send this out to other people and you say to yourself that you will send it.. 'One of these days. Remember that 'One day' is far away... or might never come...
Personal Note:
I take these wise advice in to do something positive and happy, and not doing something destructive. Some might think "Heck, I might not live tomorrow, lets try something bad", which I know it is a bad idea and you might regret for the rest of your life.
So, take some time to stop, and smell the roses, stare at the sky, and appreciate that you are still breathing. ^_^
Have a blessed day
