i was on my way to work this morning.....
was caught in the jam...2 accidents on the CTE...near each other. one was on the extreme left and the other on the extreme right.... must be speeding and tailgating accident.....
anyways, thats not my story.
what i saw at the brief moment, sets me thinking.....
"what will i be...?"..i must say its scary....
i was at the traffic junction, the lights were red, so i stopped my car.
just then a cab stopeed beside me, he was an old man..maybe 70 years old.
then another luxury car drove by and stopped beside the cab man. the driver was also an old man..in his 70s.
opposite of us, was this old man also in his 70s caring a lot of stuff, aimless and look weak to me, waiting for the green man to come on so that he can cross the road.....
so i was thinking....who will i be when i am 70?
i would love to be the man in the luxury car..live in comfort and all...... no worries as life is good....
to be a cab driver is also no too bad...at least i am still alive and can still work.. imagine being pushed in the wheelchair.....everything you do have to be done by someone else for you......
then the old man crossing the road..... i don' think i want to end up like him. i rather be dead then been aimless in life.
moral of this all...... i dont know. maybe i just want to die peacefully. i want to be able to help people when i am old. i want to be able to fend for myself. i want to live life to the max!
i don't want to be the aimless old man, but to be someone who have live a dignified life, i dont question the dignity of the aimless old man, but i guess i just dont want to be like him going about with no purpose in life....except to wait for the time to come.....
another useless thought.
