Life is not a bed of roses. It's made up of a complex series of ups and downs, in varying degrees, ratios and proportions. Recently got to know that one of my ex manager's wife pass away with a rare cancer, that only happens to 1 person in every 100,000. It came as a shocking news to me. Life indeed is truly unpredictable and fragile.
Treasure with what you have and don't take life for granted...
I came across an interesting article written by Geoff Tan from SPH a couple of months ago, below quoted from My Paper:
"A farmer's donkey fell into a well and the animal cried while the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided that animal was too old and the well needed to be covered up anyway. He then asked his neighbours to help him shovel dirt into the well. Upon realising what was happening, the donkey wailed horribly. Then to everyone's surprise, it quietened down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer looked into the well and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit its back, the donkey would shake it off and take a step up. This continued as more and more dirt was shovelled into the well. Finally, the donkey stepped over the edge of the well and trotted off happily."
Look on the positive side of life when things happen; never gift up, shake off the dirt, and take a step up.
