Eight people, seven days. Just like that, they’re gone at a snap of the fingers. No one had the slightest clue, nobody expected it. But people around us are dropping dead like it’s the “end of the world”, to quote a few sentiments.
I have this dream, that I’ll have this book published by December 2012. No, not the 21st of, given all that “Armageddon”, “end of the world” nonsense that’s been flying around for over a year now, but the 31st. why?
‘cause I made a promise to myself that this would be something I can put down in my list of accomplishments.
When you’re 13, and someone close to you asks you what you’ve accomplished, you’d probably say “A 24/25 in Math!” or some such subject. Elating, isn’t it?
When you’re 15, it’s probably “I’m the VP of the interact club in school!”
When you’re 19. . . “Top of my class in a few subjects during boards yo. Made the basketball univ team, too. Irrespective of the fact we’ve lost every tournament. Thing is, we’re improving. Tremendously!”
We all have our little joys in life. Those little joys that make you believe in the silver lining around those dangerously dark clouds.
I suppose.
Perhaps.
Sometimes though, it’s the darkness that claws at you till you get the point- MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE, AND DO IT NOW!
Stop waiting for the world to happen.
It will, whether or not youre ready for it.
