i just realized how important life is and that we have to give our best as if everyday is the last. two nights ago, a friend of mine called crying on the phone. i know her story too well. for the past 4 years, she and his brother had a great fight. the next day after their fight, his brother run away from home that even her mom and dad wasn't able to stopped him. he did not tell anybody where he is, though often he would call his mom and dad and assures him his in good hand. just this april 10th, everybody at home was surprised to see him in front of their gate with. that was the day he decided to go home and be with his family. that seem to be the happiest day of his mom and dad except for my friend. i was the witnessed of his coming back. it was a tearful moment, happiness and longingness are the only expressions of their eyes. there was a long family conversation...everybody asks forgiveness to one another but except for my friend who did not join the said family affair. his brother reaches out to her but she most of the time ignore it. 'til 2 nights ago......while his brother was on his way home, his was snatched by 5 unknown people. he was salvaged and was thrown in a creek 2 blocks away from their house. he was recovered and was rushed to the nearest hospital...it was known that the bones on his both legs where torn into pieces and the most brutally injured was his head. doctor's find out that his left brain was flattened due to the strong impact made by hitting it with wood. many blood clots found on his head. he has undergone 3 surgeries as of today. still comatose lying on his hospital. doctors says, only miracle could save him. do you think my friend still have the time to settle the differences between her brother? now, she has no courage to go to the hospital and face him..all she did now was cry and cry and believes in the power of prayer. their was regret all over her... now, my calling to all the citizens......let's not waste a single minute of our life..let us always show our love to our family...we never know what happen's next...

Hi, It seems that we share the same kind of philosophy. I too think that we should live our life to the fullest, as we really don't know when its gonna end. Life is quite unpredictable. But the most important thing one should do in one's life is to love God. The rest comes automatically. If you have love and faith for God and if you surrender to him and depend on him at every decision you take, then you are living your life in the best way indeed. Love to entire mankind is also a residue of God. Love for one's own family, no matter how small and selfish it may sound, is a service to God as well. Being righteous and being kind and forgiving to all, is an award itself. What is miracle? It is those moments when we actually feel the closeness of God. We don't wanna beg God for anything for ourselves. We only wish well for all. We surrender to him by declaring that whatever he is sending to us is actually a bliss. Though we may face difficult times, we should know for sure that God has devised a secret way to deliver us. With our limited wisdom and imperfect understanding we often see the dark side of things. But a true believer always has faith in his Lord. Thanks God bless you

hi getbiswa! there is nothing impossible in the power of God. God is the only one who could give us unconditional love. He is only one with the greatest power of all. let it not be forgotten that our life is the most precious gift God has ever give us and it is our only responsibility to take of it, give meaning to it and make the most out of it. the difficult times of our life are just spices to make it worth living. it is in our difficult times that we learned and value our life and other people...

Swoosh Yap how important it is. For me nothing could compare by the inspiration of God in lives of people.... It is so dramatically conceivable the reality in having God in one's life. They said to live life to the fullest then you must give God the chance to make your life worth living for... Just sharing............. Shalom
