Life on earth is but a temporary assignment.

i believe in that, do you? probably not. maybe i've not experienced how it is like to be at the brink of death, how it is like to feel real physical suffering, how it is like battling that little pumping system that is left of your heart. of course, i've not.for the first time in my life, i attended a teenager's wake today. maybe a young adult, poly student i think. haven't talk to her before, seen her a couple of times, and last seen was her photo. and she was lying behind that. and for the first time in my life, i attended a wake which held no rituals and the like. it was the usual pastor mark, this time bringing all of us into prayer. and they were fellow friends, who sang their hearts out, praising the Lord. simply cos, we held on to that common belief, that our fellow friend has made her way up there. how? only one way.even though we may not have even exchanged any form of greeting watsoever, but i can feel the pain of cos. however, let's bear in mind that, even though there are many things we can't comprehend, God's ways are forever higher than ours and we should give thanks in all circumstances. Afterall, the place up there is definitely gonna be a place better than on earth. and surely, our life on earth is only temporary.it made me ponder alot today. cliche as it may be sound, but is really of life itself. and it made my that desire stronger, cos i want to spend that eternal life with everyone whom i love.ahhhhhh. nevermind me."Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered, and that my life is fleeting away."
