No one is equal in everything: your appearance, height, weight, health, assets...etc. Somebody came from rich families while some were born from single-parents. God is so amazing that He made everyone special and different. Except twins, no one is the same in appearance. Don't you think it's so amazing?

But one thing is the same to everyone: everyone has 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and so on. Unless you are certain of the duration of your life, the second you're reading this blog, you're still alive! We aren't sure we can still awake and do something good tomorrow, but at least, we know we're still alive here and now. So, everyone is equal on this basis.

The question then is: how do you spend your remaining life? It's not a new issue and so many people talk about this topic for years, but I still wish to mark it down on my own blog.

I will try my best to spend good and fruitful, even not in every single minute, but at least, putting in my mind that I always try my best consciously. It doesn't mean I grasp every single minute of my life keeping myself busy, but I will enjoy every single moment on my own, being alone, with my beloved, my three lovely kids, my family, my students, my work, and even while I am on my way home in the double-decker bus.

Is it easy to spend extremely well in every single moment? Of course not. What I can do is to remind myself to enjoy life, and more importantly, to find the meaning out of my single moment of life. When I teach, I realize it's good chance to convey what I have learnt to the students, including my attitude and thoughts to those youngsters. When I am in the bus, I spend time to read, or to remember the lovely moments with the one who was being with me ago.

That's life. That's what God give me, and you, and everyone.

You don't know how long your life will be, and neither do I, but we know we have a choice, a choice of how your life is, even though, for instance, in sufferings.

That's life. Amen.
