"Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived. After all Number One, we're only mortal..." - Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek: Generations (1994)

30 going on life...
Man! I can't believe it. Come October 4th, I'll be three - Oh...Yup...3 decades being alive on God's green earth... I just think that this is it...life will take on a full swing this year onwards and all things I've planned to do, targets to hit and objectives to achieve will really flight from now on. No time to loose, else i wanna find myselft old and grey and slapping myself for not reaching for the stars when I could still do it...
I guess this post is a reminder of the reality I'm stuck with and to put myself in overdrive, for life is too short to be idling...I sure hope I'm on the right track...
But what I would really enjoy is a good meal with my family and friends, fellowship and celebration. There's nothing else I should thank Lord Almighty than Him keeping me steadfast and alive thus far...
Considering the circumstances, I supposed life as been interesting and fruitful. I guess complain. I have to be thankful for some key aspects of my life, which could be more or less summarised as follows:-
i) I actually made it being a lawyer, despite the fact I was rather soft-spoken and timid at one time;
ii) I survived my parents' separation and divorce. I still have a very good relationship with both of them;
iii) I learnt how to dive, considering I've had hydrophobia most of my life;
iv) I've got really sincere and genuine friends, which is more than I could ask for in these time and age; and
v) most importantly, I've been blessed by more ways than many...
Happy 30th Buddy... We've known each other some eight years maybe... and each year I value your friendship more... thanks budyy... and... Welcome to the club...
more than that buddy... i think we met in 96. It's been a decade now... been a privilege knowing ya. thanks for your friendship. You're a great buddy. I look forward to seeing you again soon...
Aindhy, I reckon you'd agree when I say age is no measure of friendship. I suppose I cant ask for anything more. Let's drink to a long lasting friendship till the end of time. Till all are one.
Asther, thanks for your well wishes. I only pray that I get wiser as I do older. Now I am 3 decades and counting. Hope to be able to celebrate birthdays with you and uncle for many more years to come.
