It took me a while to decide – “To start or not to start?” After all, it has always been a past time or perhaps a part of life. Just that it has been scattered in different color and sizes of books, or just a few pieces of paper chucked in different part of the room? Perhaps even traces of it can be found in part of the cyber world of today, or even in different part of the world through letters send? A record of bits and pieces of life experiences at different stage of time I have been given so far. Where there were accounts of woes, of confusion, of feelings, of thoughts, of silliness, of many unaccomplished resolutions, of love and many more that there is of me today. Of course there were many gaps which I did not choose to pen it down. Thus, the main concern is not exactly above I supposed.
If “To start or not to start?” is not the question, what is it then? The question is - “How long will this last? “ Starting off anything always brings you a sense of excitements. It is always refreshing to do something new even though sometimes it requires a bit of courage to step out of your usual routine. However, it is when you continue with it, when time goes on, life gets busy, in the midst of it, will you find time to continue to devote on it? To be able to persist on is liken to running a long marathon – it is never an easy task. It requires much endurance and patience as you carry on with the task. It is especially so in moments when the sea of life gets stormy, when there might be a road block in front. Then comes the test – “Will you still continue on or drop out completely of it all?”
The question then leads me to - “How will it end”? A task simple as it is, but why are there so much thought behind it? Perhaps with time that slipped me by, I have come to realize that it is not how much I have accomplished as yet but how I have been faithful to the little things in life that counts as I continue to press on to finish the race. Having a goal to ends well in mind will only helps you to strive on and be faithful to the little things which you are being called from Him.
This is where the story is written - A story of the past, of the present and perhaps anticipation of the future. A story of a normal pilgrim’s walk through the days of his time on this world till his last appointment with death shall come. When will it be? I do not know but neither does anyone except for He who is sitting on above. Are you living as if it is your last in the light of eternity? Life is a choice. Choose Life!
