A gift called Life

Just the other day I heard that my friend died in a car crash. Shocked and devastated, I realized how delicate life is. Well, I always knew how precious life is...but this news dawned on me the realization that life is too precious to waste on petty squabbles, hate, jealousy and various other such ill feelings.

I myself had got a second chance to live...and with this incident, my conviction that each of us should value each and every moment of our lives has become even stronger.

Life is a gift from the almighty...a delicate, beautiful and wonderful gift creating magic that all of us dream of. Where on one hand it has deep roots that makes it strong, on the other hand it is soft as the stem of a sapling that can break any moment if one is not careful.

I feel privileged to have been able to take care of this wonderful gift and preserve it well...what more can I say.

I thank God fo everything...for such wonderful friends, a loving family and everything beautiful that surrounds me.

Here is a four liner that I dedicate to life:

"Gentle as the petals of a rose,
You steal my heart with your beauty,
A gift so divine and pure,
You'r the reason for me to be happy."
