Lucky

Reading the newspapers, full of tragedies. Some are natural disasters -- cant be helped; Some are man's doings -- they can avoid it. However I am more concerned for those who met natural disasters.

Suddenly I feel so lucky to be born in Singapore, a place where there are no natural disasters, with peace and security, with very good leaders as our government...and of course, so lucky to be able to open my eyes every morning and still see the sun, then the moon and the stars, my family and friends.

We cant control or choose where we want to born at, and who we want to be born to. So no point grumbling over all these. Just treasure everything and anything you hold, you see, you hear, you eat, or even smell.

Looking out there, there are so many people who want to live and lead a proper simple life, but they cant be it because of natural disasters or illness strike them. So dont anyhow give up your life. Dont do anything that hurts your body, your moral -- because it hurts your parents too.

Be grateful and appreciative. Be proud to live.
