I am 48 Today
I am 48 years old today. Time has slipped through my fingers. I thought I have a lot of time left but I am wrong. I still remember my first day at school, I cannot wait to grow up. When I was at school, I thought I will be happy when I finish my exams. When I started university, I thought I will be happy when I graduate. When I started working, I thought I will be happy when I get promoted. Somehow, all my happiness are in the future.
Our happiness should not be in the future but now. Looking back, I have achieved far more than I have imagined. Yet, I never really gave myself any credit for it. I always think I can do more and be more. As of today, I probably have less than 50% left of my life span. If I am not happy now, when I should be happy?
I am grateful that I am healthy. I have a good legal business that I can support my family. All my family members are healthy. There is really nothing more that I should ask from life. I am 48 years old today. Let me enjoy my moment and the passing of time.
Life should not be feared but cherished. We all will reach our destination and disembark from life. Until then, please let me enjoy the journey of my life.
