While having breakfast yesterday I looked out of the window and saw a nice beautiful sunny Monday morning...How glad and grateful I was that I am still living...and I felt sad that I could not attend the funeral of my late friend Anuar Yatim who passed away last Friday in Melaka.I was having having a bad cough and fever,if not I would be among the first to arrive at his home.By the way,Anuar Yatim was 61 years old and I am 60 years old...it reminds me of my own death.
As we all know,life is a cycle..starting with one when we were born and later got married and have kids.Then,our children become adults and got marriend and left us and leaving two of us.Finally,one of us..Later,our children take over and the cycle repeats itself.
One of the important thing to know is where we are in the cycle of life and do the right thing and do it right.Our life time is very short to learn many things we need to know on our own time,so we must learn from the older people who have been there and done that.
Now,I have entered the Golden Age or Warga Emas.And that is the last part of my cycle...So, time is very important for me to do only what really matters to me and the people I care about..
Allahyarham Anuar Yatim was in yellow shirt standing on my left.The photo was taken on 27th Dec,2005 when my schoolmates had our 'ikan bakar' at Muara Sungai Duyong,Melaka.No matter how busy you are,take time to enjoy life with your family members and friends.I drove all the way to Melaka -just to be with my friends and their family members..La vita e bella.
