This Life Is....


Have you ever wondered about what is the meaning of why we live?! We were forced to be born in this world without our own will, and then after, we required to perform this life with all the rules, courtesy and doctrine which we as human had been dogmatized to be always virtuous and right. But at the same time we also be up against the reality of life and especially faced our own nature characteristic to rule the life. And unlike in a movie, if we make mistakes there will be a chance to rewind the scene and start over again……..well nope! In real life we don’t have that chance. We have one chance only and no rewind. Afterward, if one day when we feel had enough with this life and decide to end our life, GOD forbid us to do so because we can not simply say "I’m done!", "I’m through" or "I give up" with life and just disappear. We have been forced to follow this game until GOD says "Your times up!"…………don’t you think it’s seems really unfair?!

What is life for you? For me, this is all about "experiences"! Experience to taste an extraordinary life time in this world. I run my life based on today. I taste, I smell, I kiss, I love, I dance, I sing, I work….I do things only for today. It seems like somehow I don’t want to miss everything! I enjoy my time with my friends, I enjoy my party, I enjoy my long sleep, I enjoy my pain like there’s no more tomorrow. It’s not that I don’t have any plans for future, I do have lots of it, but we never know when is our time will be last, isn’t?! Then why bother to be so organize or perfect?! Your plan will become a dream if tomorrow you are suddenly die and you don’t have anymore chance to show or share what you have now. I realize for some people this experience of life sometimes really cruel, rough and traumatize, and I did experience a little bit of it (I said "a little bit" because I know that there’s lots of people out there whom might be more miserable than I did) and believe me…..it was awful! But I do believe that this experience which GOD gave us is to test our power for following the game until its ends…. Socrates said, "Life which is not been tested is a useless life"………I think he got the point.

If I have a chance to make a choice before my existence, I’d probably refuse to live in this world because for me its too scary, it’s painful and it is really too damn beautiful to let go!!! But then again, I’m here already…..for what?! Why?! Why are we doing this?! I guess I will never find the real answer. Don’t get me wrong here, I never want to question GOD, because I really do believe HIM and love HIM. I am just questioning the basic reason of why we live! They say, GOD works in a mysterious way and HE has His own attention for each one of us……..Amin!












So now I play my part to be as good as I can be, as strong as I can get and as happy as I can find. Because "And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years that matters" (Abraham Lincoln). And it’s also because I realize that nobody perfect, you are not perfect and neither do I, so then I am not trying to be one. I am just trying to be good, that’s all…….

Right or wrong?! Let’s just GOD do the counting. We only have one chance to live, then let’s be experimental, so then one day if our time in this world is finish, we can have lots of unforgettable memory to keep whether we will end up in heaven or hell later on, we’re still can say "HEY…..! I’VE BEEN THERE ONCE AND I DID EXPERIENCE LIFE. IT WAS AWESOME!!!"

(Well, this is only a silly thought from a very very unexperience person…..Me! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!)
