See It, Feel It, Live It

Sometimes we thought we know life so well until we forgot we ought to look at it carefully. We live everyday like it's endless although we know death is the only verdict. Because we don't know when is the end so we tend to use the overall average figure as a standard of consideration.

And that is where the problem is.

We presume we have at least 70 years of living. That's 25,550 days or 613,200 hours or 36,792,000 minutes or 2,207,520,000 seconds. Assuming we have spent (averagely) about 24 years on pursuing our education, we are still left with 46 years of time (assuming we live until 70), which is 16,790 days or 402,960 hours, that is quite a number of time we still have.

We take this as the basis to plan for lives, very unlikely taking in "WHAT IF IT DOESN'T WORK OUT THE WAY I EXPECT IT TO BE" as one of the conditions that might probably be the cause of unpredictable turmoil to put all things to the end.

"What if there is no tomorrow?"

Living in present does not mean taking care of today only. Instead it means taking the present moment as the stepping stone of reaching the next. That brings the same meaning of "Build a big house with a blueprint and start by little bricks". We decide how we want our lives to become by drawing the blueprint of our own, set a time frame for the completion, then work on every single effort to accomplish it.

The key to setting a right and effective way to making things happen determines how successful a person can be.

That is life.
