Recently, numerous catastrophes and dilemmas arise not in the Philippines but all over the world. It is a fact that millions of lives were taken may it be because of Covid-19, floods, eruptions, earthquakes and illnesses. But what do these all imply?

            People cannot control everything, not even the latest technology. No one and nothing can spare lives, I suppose. Power, money, fame and knowledge can never save someone from death. As I was contemplating, what do these mundane things offer to us? Joy? Satisfaction? Greed? Hatred? Whatever it may bring us, one thing is for sure, we will all meet the One.

            It is irrevocable to turn things exactly as it used to be. Looking around, people change, environment transforms, and everything alters. Nothing stays the same, right?

            So now what? What do we do with this very life knowing that the day will come that this too, will fleet. Explore the world. Discover more of our talents. Laugh hard. Live liberately, for in the end, everything will vanish and all things will be forgotten.

            Know one’s purpose and one’s desire. Glorify Him in all way possible.
