Before It's Too Late

Have you ever been fall into the trap of procrastinating? Have you said these sentences such as "this can wait", "maybe later" or "perhaps next time then" to yourself before? Have you ever imagine the consequences that it brings if we don't perform certain action or said certain things on/at that very instance we wanted to?

As we walked our very next time, breathe in the very next breath, utter our very next words, the clock ticks. Time is a silent killer that carefully robs time from us. We grew older every single seconds, and as much as many wish, most yearn to grew wiser, smarter, prettier, much more loving etc, all by the seconds. But, the harsh truth is, we all age. We all become forgetful and full of wrinkles when we grow old. No denial. That is the normal and rightful process we all will go through.

But, what if the unwanted and unexpected struck? For example, an accident, a disastrous calamity or a terminal illness strikes. No one human being has the capability or ability to stop that from happen, because we are no magicians. And when that happens, will "this can wait", "maybe later" or "perhaps next time then" be too late? Think again.

If you want to tell that person you love him or her, say it, even if you are surrounded by eyes looking at you. If you want to buy that favourite food for someone who loves it and patiently waits for you back at home, do it. If you need to finish that work just so you can go home on time to accompany your family, finish it. Time waits for no one. Like I've said, we may be no magicians yet, what we can do or say can make magic to the loved ones that we care so much for.

For if we wait to do something, it might really prove to be a little too late. Live the moment and indulge in it, and not live the future with regrets. I'm a firm believer of expressing my love through actions and words, because I don't wish to take time for granted. If I am not sure if I can live the next minute, I'd better say what I would feel and wish to say for the next minute, before it's too late...
