Life: It comes and gone in a moment.

Pardon me for all my grammars and sentence structures.

This week have set me thinking about life itself. Because someone i know(pretty much acquaintance) went with the Lord on monday. Another one spoke about his lifetime, how society shaped him and eventually happiness wasn't what he thought until health strikes him and he passed away.

Liangwei, a guy that i barely know from SOT last year. A friend of a few of my good friends? Seen each other but had never spoke before. On monday i saw quite a few people were writing to a "person" saying they missed him, RIP etc. I wondered who and realise it was him. I was a little curious about this guy because all the friends that i know, be it close or not, wrote something about him. I went to ask around, read about him and realise that this man really impacted lives. It makes me wonder.. In a lifespan of 25 years, he has impacted so many people. How will i want to live my life and when i go with the Lord, how people will remember me? Fashionable? Fun? Joy?

What i saw in those posts, many said he impacted them not just in terms of his dreams and visions in life but also how he lives as a Christian. How he encourages people to read bible, how he travels from east to west back to east just to give bible study, how generous he is as a person, how people find comfort when he's around etc. Isn't he living out what Jesus lived?

I would say i'm proud of this man. In 25 years he has impacted future leaders and many great people. Even people like me, sorta irrelevant, felt his before and after live impacted me too. I grieved for his death but nonetheless, just like what his friends said, let's celebrate his life and always remember him. I'll always remember what his life taught me. Live life to the fullest, live with no regrets, impact people with God's love.

Apart from him, Dr Richard Teo. I believe many have read his dialogues or watched the video. Happiness isn't from the dust of the earth but the eternal. He thought life with wealth and fame can satisfy him as what the media said. Until the last 10 months of his life, he then realise what truly happiness is. It's always never too late when you realise your mistakes and amend them because you have made an effort to do so. It made me realise that my God is the only one i will wanna have and nothing else. Because he has given me all and all in the eternal.
