Time Flies, It's Christmas Again. Everyone I have met have commented how amazingly time flew this year. That was what they said last year. They said but it seemed even quicker now. And that my friend is the essence of it all for it is now Christmas! People used to say what are you waiting for? Christmas? In other words, you have to do things in the "now". Do not buy new clothes and keep them for next Christmas, wear then now. Do not wait for the next time to show your spouse, parents, siblings and children love, show them now. I say show them love not spoil them.  Why? Simple as that, tomorrow may never come. That is why we are called the human race, a race against time, a race where nobody wins actually. For we are a fallen race. Christmas excited me when I was a young child because I learnt to make my own and first Christmas cards. I got to send them to friends with personal messages.

So shall we have to wait till we are six feet underground to literally rest in peace. Ah, but that is different, choi choi choi!!  People by and large think that death is taboo but there are only two things that are certain in life - death and taxes. Confucius said: "It is better to be pissed off than to be pissed on." Haha, he didn't say that, I did. Look around us in the world today. You read the newspapers each day and you have mostly bad news screaming at you on the front page. Wars, recession, neighbours bickering, family members suing one another over inheritance. It is...
