Yesterday

         I went to school 10 minutes before 2 pm to meet my class and rearrange our Christmas Decorations.When I am about to cross the lane , people were rushing off to the main highway, they called it killer highway. I continue my way to the school's gate, only to be alarmed about the voices panicking around. To ease my curiosity I go back to the streets and witnessed for the first time, a man, whom I know, who lives just a few corners away from the school I am teaching, lying with the blood scattered around him .According to the source, he is trying to cross the street to dry some rice grain and was accidentally hit by a police mobile. There was no chance of restoring his life or bringing him to the hospital because he was instantly dead. His head perhaps had bumped on the cement one, two , three, I don't know how many times , that had caused him death.

      This morning I passed by their house and had seen the name printed in white and pasted in black wood to inform the passersby that somebody is dead. I had seen some policemen, too.

      Death is really just around the corner, we could never know when will our time be.Life could end in a tragic way at the least we expect it to be, but we cannot choose our endings.We can never know when will be our last breath.

     Here's some quotes on death to  inspire us in our moments of living:

• "We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.- Chuck Palahniuk
• "You have a choice. Live or die.Every breath is a choice. Every minute is a choice. To be or not to be."- Chuck Palahniuk
• "Every man dies. Not every man really lives."- William Ross Wallace
• "The first step to eternal life, is you have to die."-Chuck Palahniuk
• "Death is not romantic, and death is not a game which will soon be over...Death is notanything...death is not...its the absence of presnce, nothing more...the endless time of never coming back...a gap you van't see and when the wind blows through it, it makes no sound..."- Tom Stoppard
• "When the game is over, the king and the pawn go into the same box."- Italian Proverb

          May we all live in peace while on earth. To the man who had died yesterday: you may not be a known person on earth, but I know that God has done something for you. May your soul  rest in peace as God called you yesterday, for sure we cannot question God's will. It's His will. We just have to obey. This will be his journey to eternal life.And we'll  pray for him.

        I got this flower somewhere and good enough to remind us that    life is just temporary. So smile if you can..
