The first time I saw Morrie on ' Nightline, ' I wondered what regrets he had once he knew his death was imminent. Did he lament lost friends? Would he have done much differently? Selfishly, I wondered if I were in his shoes, would I be consumed with sad thoughts of all that I had missed? Would I regret the secrets I had kept hidden?When I mentioned this to Morrie, he nodded. ' It's what everyone worries about, isn't it? What if today were my last day on earth? ' He studied my face, and perhaps he saw an ambivalence about my own choices. I had this vision of me kneeling over at my desk one day, halfway through a story, my editors snatching the copy even as the medics carried my body away.
' Mitch? ' Morrie said.
I shook my head and said nothing. But Morrie picked up on my hesitation.
' Mitch, ' he said, ' the culture doesn't encourage you to think about such things until you're about to die. We're so wrapped up with egotistical things, career, family, having enough money, meeting the mortgage, getting a new car, fixing the radiator when it breaks - we're involved in trillions of little acts just to keep going. So we don't get into the habit of standing back and looking at our lives and saying, Is this all? Is this all I want? Is something missing? ' "
Do you regret your life? Have you ever thought of stopping in your steps and stop being busy to think of your life? What do you really want? Did you go the way you are going because of money, career, family, egotistical things? Are you truely happy? Is somehing missing in your life?
To all who live with regrets, are unhappy and troubled.
A tiring day at Bevi today.... got so irritated by this customer. Singaporean.... Super- duper irritating! Kept asking me about the penne and linguine differences. FOUR times! and he still got it wrong! Oh for the peace of the god! Which part of the sentence do you not understand! ' The penne is something similiar to macoroni, and the linguine is just like spagetti except thicker. ' Can someone tell me I'm speaking in a foreign langauge, thats why he can't get it!
Then scolds me after that for not being able to accept card payments! Think I can pull all my hair out! Feel like taking a knife and start stabbing myself (-_-") Then he got the cheek to say its very expensive and refuse to give a little tips! *turn to wana stab him*
I still never get to eat the Strawberry Short Cake! I muz eat it! Its so pretty!
OMG! I'm so in love with this little baby at caffe.... So pretty... Anw, I realise at caffe I manage to see like 10 times more Breasts in a wk compared to 19 years of my life... Breasts of all shapes and sizes. Big nipple or small nipple. Rock melon or Watermelon. * for info, the smallest r as big as melons* Hmmm.... how does it feel? Is there any sensation when the baby suck on it? I really wonder... Will they feel like a cow?
On my way home from w0rk todae, I was so tired that I fell asleep on the bus and kept knockin my head against the glass window... *ouch!* Think the ppl arnd me must think I'm like so comical... Lucky I won't see any of those ppl arnd... Can you imagine they point at me and go, ' hey! Ain't you the one who keep knocking your head against the glass? ' I think I'll swoon! though I hate swooning...
I'm turning fair! I need the sun!
Oh! Congrats Donkey! You got back with Candice again after a 5 daes break up. Hear you went to look for her. I applaude your courage for the risk of getting your face in the door. Well, it paid of. You got her again. Your life is so Drama, I think you can do another ' Days of Our Lifes ' . I believe your episodes can keep me awake.
Having your gal doesn't mean you can ignore your friends okie.
Cindy, do you need me to help you file a legal sue on them for overworking you? You know if I'm a lawyer and I handle cases where workers are being illegally overworked with no compensation, I think i will be rich. I will so accuse them of indirectly trying to commit murder of another party. I'll like bring cam and video down all evidences. make sure they pay like 10k or something.
Hmm... these days I felt in love with these honey sweets. Its so cool lah! In the center of the sweet is honey! So cool rite! I'm like so addicted to it but I alr finished all that I bought and I can't get it anymore cos I don't know where they sell it! I brought it at the candy fair...
