Okay, i went swimming in the morning yesterday, and jun jie asked me if i wanted to swim / run with him later in the late afternoon. So i went swimming again in the late afternoon, and then ran to Chinese garden right after swimming, followed by some stair climbing. I feel so tired now. T_T

Anyway, I just thought I'd type out some random thoughts that's been lingering around in my mind for awhile.

The things we can achieve with our bodies, limitless. We can
effortlessly walk, run, swim, cycle, roller blade, etc etc. because we have proper and functioning bodies. I was just thinking, on that fateful day when old age catches up on me, the day when I'm wheelchair bound, or just lying in my bed, the day when I can no longer afford the strength to do all these things, how would my life be like? Would i still be happy and cheerful? Would i still be satisfied and contented?

Death is a disease that everybody has, no one escapes it, and it creeps up on us with each passing day. We should all strive to achieve what we can, while we can, with the short duration of our lives. Do we want to waste precious days with meaningless unproductive things? Or do we want to use our precious days in the pursuit of our dreams and ambitions? Choose one, because we don't have much time :)
