A motivational poster sitting in my office pantry..it reads "There is in this world no greater force that the force of a man determined to rise." ...hmm..motivating indeed
Yesterday night I received a piece of bad new. My good army friend's mum suddenly passed away. She was a retired teacher. My good friend was uncontactable when she passed on late Wednesday night. He was in camp doing his reservist.
He was strong when I called him yesterday to offer my condolences. He managed to convince the Commanding Officer to let him end his reservist early. It is news like this that shows us the fragility of life. Anyone can go when we least expect them to. Only when they are gone, after you realise that he/she is not going to walk through the door again, that the harsh realities hit you smack in the face.So let us live our lives with no regrets. Shower everyone around us with love. Leave a legacy to the people around us, on the day we leave our earthly body for the eternal light.
Peace.
