Shiny Grey Star Life Story: LIFE IS SHORTER than we think

LIFE IS SHORTER than we think

               It was May 24, 2012, we were in Cubao's Victory Liner Terminal because we are heading to Baguio. I was sitting in front of the big electric fan, listening on the radio for the announcement of the next American Idol.

               At the front of my sit there came a family (Grandmother, Mother, Father and a child of 1 yr old). Well, this family came normal on the terminal, They even put their bags on the floor. After awhile, people starting  going to them, I actually don't hesitate to know on what's going on and I am looking for our bags 'coz mom was also busy buying for food and I can't go to them. Anyways, I saw the Lola (grandmother) fanning the child and the father started crying..and now I think that something is really going on.

              There came a taxi! and when the father stand I saw the child face in his arm. The child looks very pale, the skin was already  white....the child was dead! Now I know why people going to them. Me, sitting there felt sad and thankful for the life that God gave to me this day. I felt sad for the child that he was not able to see the world, but, I was also happy for that child will be joining the angels and would guide his parents here on earth.

               That family went to the hospital. Everybody in the terminal wished that we could actually helped them...the only help that we gave was calling a taxi for them and showed all our concerns. I hope that family could accept what happened to their child.

              With this experience, I have reflected that Life is too short to waste...we don't know when and where our lives will end. I should treasure every moment of my Life weather I am experiencing hardships or happiness. From this day on I am treasuring my Life and enjoy it starting now.
