Stop for a moment nd think if you're making the most out of life.

Are u using the talents god gave you? And I'm not talking about the ability to sing, to run fast, maybe to paint well, or just being plain smart, but rather the fundamental talents which we often overlook. The "talent" to see, to hear, to speak, to walk on two legs, to eat with both hands.

We oten take these things for granted, and dont realise how precious they are till one of the two happen.
1) WE lose them
2) We see people close to us who have lost them, and it affects us profoundly

The other day at WSF, a blind woman by the name of Wai Yi was asked what she wanted to do with her life. Her reply was that she was a world class singer, and the tone of her voice resonated with serenity. I felt realli happy for her, but at the same time ashemed in myself, for I knew I wasn't doing everything I could to realli live this life I have at hand.

At times, more so nowadays, I realli feel that I coud be doing so much more in life, but am not, I'm taking everything for granted, almost like I will live forever, but like Larkin himself said, life is indeed slow dying, like it or not, by the time I sleep tonight, I will be a few hours closer to the end, whenever that may be.

I realli regret all those days, hours I wasted doing stupid shit which didnt amount to anything, so I've been telling myself to make better choices, personal choices which will lead to a better life.

So he next time you have time, think if this, or where u are is realli where you wanna be. As you lay in bed, for the last few moments, think for yourself if the day which you just spent was spent well.

"The time is always right, to do the right thing."

Tomorrow, is the street tournament. Doing well is not the only alternative, but it would be good to get a result from here, as it will be a substantial to our portfolio as a CCA.

God give the team strength, determination, desire and luck. Victory is always possible through YOU.

Amin.

Out.
