At a moment, I was thinking what is life. I attended a session of training at Institute of Adult Learning and the trainer made me reflect on myself. I'm 35 this year and half of my life was used. What have I done? Yes, seen the world, can close my eyes when I die, but so what?

On politics, there will never be a dish to satisfy everyone's taste. The trick to the game is to win vote.

On health, what if I can live till 90? Its not important. What's important is the quality time.

On family, shall I move away to a place with more breathing space?

A tiger leaves it's skin after it die, a man leaves his name. So what about leaving a name?

Everyone will grow old, everyone will die.

I had never talked about the big trip to anyone in Singapore, for the past 3 years. Why?

I wanted to write a book about it but I don't even like to read a book, why so?

Guess I need time for reflection now.

Thank you Anonymous for your encouragement. The next question is, what can they learn or what they want to learn.....

I am nearly twice your age so we are not equal. I used to ask the very same question you did ask and I have come up with this answer. Know the purpose of life. If you dont know then start searching. You will find that when you did find, you will be at ease, no stress, no worry and would want to contribute more towards the purpose of living.
Have a successful search.
