A sense of lifelessness fills the air even though
my ears hear the sound of each and every breath taken.
All too often, time is wasted and days pass without meaning.
Time and time again, another opportunity slips away and
numerous moments pass unnoticed with the blink of an eye.
The song by Lenka suggests that we should live like we're dying.
As if the very next breath taken may be the last and
where a single second should not be left to be misspend.
Take every moment; you know that you own them.
It's all you can do, use what's been given to you.
The fact is, we are actually dying physically little by little, day by day
as we are getting closer to the day that we will leave this humble home.
And the faster we realise that we do not have a million years ahead,
the more aware we are about the fact that each second counts.
The question at the end is,
what are our seconds counting for?
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain the heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90 : 12
It's a choice that only we ourselves can make :)
