CARPE DIEM

Not before, after, or later
Not in the past or future
But Now in the Present...
..is the life of your dreams

Catch it before

like the vapour of fleeting breath
it flutters away like a butterfly
into the azure
Gone and lost forever
admist the clouds above...
..carpe Diem.

Today is another opportunity to truly live, instead of simply existing.

BEFORE I DIE

Before I die
Let me live
Becoming the person
I was meant to be
Accomplishing the purpose
I was born to fulfill

Before I die
Let me live
Meeting every soul
I was destined to meet
Visiting every place
On the path chosen for me

Before I die
Let me live
Making the most
Of everything I encounter
Cherishing every moment
That shapes my days

Before I die
Let me live
The life I am meant to live
As I was meant to live
Let me first live
Before I die.

HOPE

Hope is that dream
in which we see a better life
in a faraway land called "tomorrow"
Entranced by its enchantment
we dream on

Day after day we dream
of the better life of "tomorrow"
While today we ignore
and its gift of life we neglect
Preferring to dream than live

But "tomorrow" never comes, you see
because today is all there is
And "tomorrow" is just a dream—
an imagined reality yet unreal
A trick of the mind

Should we then blame hope?
Discard it and disregard its dream?
No, hope is not to blame
Our interpretation of its dream is
Which really isn't about "tomorrow"
but today— the present

Hope is that dream
revealing the better life there is today
If only we can be present in the present
To live today as we should today
Instead of chasing the dream itself.

BE REAL
(By Ziri Dafranchi)

"I find no importance in showing others that I am happy; it's not important to me that they know or think that I am happy but what is important to me is that I am happy."— C. Joybell C

Life is short but time is long; time is endless but life ends. Life is a long story short; it is too short to be wasted. Life is to be lived and not to be engaged in playing to the gallery. Some products have "Best Before" and "Expiry" dates; same goes for life— we expire at death and are best before diseases or old age make us redundant. More importantly, life is a mission based on a plan: We have an alloted time to accomplish our mission here. Therefore life is somewhat like a business and we need to run it efficiently and productively. One way of ensuring this is to use our time wisely to optimise it. Sadly, we have a lot of things vying for our limited time here. In recent years social media has become one of the top contenders.

With social media— the number of followers, likes, views, shares and comments— comes clout chasing as users do anything possible to gain visibility and popularity online. As a result, some people spend a good portion of their lives presenting false realities online at the expense of actually doing something worthwhile with their time in order to better their lives in reality. While social media has its benefits, it also has a dark side usually as a result of its abuse. In addition to serving as a distraction from the real life, it also presents some other risks including mental health problems; destruction of real life socialisation; and bullying, trolling and violence. We are personally responsible for how we use social media and so we should ensure we maintain a healthy balance in this regard.

There's nothing like the real thing. Life is real, virtual reality isn't. Embrace reality, be real and live real to get the best out of life.
