DIXIONIAN

Today 26 November 2014 is my birth date and I am now 61 years of age. Looking back, times flies so fast that life is just like flowing rivers from upstream to river mouth leading into a deep rough ocean. I can never go back upstream again where spring waters are pure and clean. The journey is just like a split seconds not 61 years. The journey was never smooth. It begins with small spring water, decently clean and move slowly. Its then joining other spring waters and combined into bigger volume and stronger forces it flowing down the rift and a thousand mountains forming waterfalls and rivers. We go through rough rapids with fast speed during raining days and moving very slowly during hot and drought periods. Life journey has so much ups and downs, happiness and sorrow, going through good times with so much laughter with friends, very quite and secluded during bad times. Went through so much difficulties and challenges; also tasted success and happiness. During the journey of life, I have met many good an honest people but I am also not spared from meeting people who are ungrateful, greedy, disrespectfully taking advantage of my humble and kindhearted nature. These people always turning my good deeds into troubles that affected my self esteemed and drive. However, I always believed Allah almighty always with me protecting me all the time. During good times and bad times I pray to Allah for guidance and protection. With this conviction I found peace and forgiveness in my heart, continue to strive in doing good things in life, continue to be humble and kindhearted in helping, motivating and encouraging people that comes my way. In this remaining years of life, I just want to reward myself by doing meaningful things to nature and human beings so that when I go, I will go in peace not tied up to the worldly problems. Insya Allah, god willing.
