Life is too short. We don't know the time when we are going to die and also we don't know the time how we are going to die. Take the victim of the Buendia Bus that had just being bombed yesterday (for the information of those who do not know what happen, a bus here in the Philippines that are traveling towards the northern part of the Philippines' capital has exploded by an improvise bomb and 4 has died.) as an example. Some of the victims are in that bus just to go to their school homecoming, others are going to a mall just to relax and others are on their home to be with their family for dinner. Just imagine how happy they were. But in just a moment, those happy feeling has been replaced by grief, pain and even death. These passengers never knew what faith awaited them on the bus. They never knew that some of them will be meeting their end here. Just like them, we would never know when will we meet our end. Unfortunately, Death is inevitable. It will surely come to us. And it is really sad that we only have limited time to do what we want to do. We only have limited time to help others become happy. So until that day comes, we should try to live to the fullest and try to help as many people as we can in different ways. We should try to be happy for ourselves and for others.

I live by the words that tomorrow is never promisedk, as we can be live, and healthy today and not awake after a nights sleep. It is important to be the best we can and try and not leave anything within reach for tomorrow as we may not get that chance again.

Nice advice. we really don;t know if tomorrow we are still living. So at the end of the day, we should not have any regrets on what we have doen for the day. And also we should see to it the everyday we are doing something good. Thnx for your comment.

Yes indeed life is too short. And we need to live at our fullest. But we also should remeber that even life is too short, we can still be satisfied with it by always remebering and always serving our GOD. Tnx for the comment.

That is the reason we need to get things right with our Maker, God. Seek Him while he may be found and while we are alive. Trust in Jesus. We need to treasure not just our own lives, but also others. No one has a right to take away their own life, let alone another person's life. It's very sad.
