Sunset

Just a normal day

I was rushing home after work

why am i rushing back?

I don't know

what's the hurry?

I don't know

.

.

.

out of sudden

I thought of K** who was bedridden

I saw the sunset in the midst of HDB buildings

Is K** able to see the sunset?

felt a bit sad

but felt fortunate that i could still see the sunset

.

.

.

slow down my pace

gazing towards the direction of the sunset

breathe in deeply

I am glad that I am still alive

.

.

.

the sunset is ordinary, but beautiful

Will that be my last sunset?

I don't know

But i was glad that I enjoyed that moment

.

.

.

How often do I slow down my pace to enjoy the sunset?

I always enjoy looking at sunset.
it could be a philosophical moment
it could be an emotional moment
it is always a peaceful moment

.

.

.

It signifies the end of day

end of journey

time for reflection

End of Journey

K**'s journey is ending soon

His health is deteriorating quickly

The inevitable end is arriving soon

.

.

.

When is yours ending?

When is mine ending?

.

.

.

How do we want to end it?

End of Journey

As we grow older, do we get wiser?

Nothing much... just a trivial entry.

I was looking through my journals and the stuff I wrote 6-7 years ago. Frankly, I was quite impressed by the ME back then. I was learning things that I wrote down 6-7 years ago. Well, to think that I was only 21/22 years old back then, the stuff that I wrote down were quite deep.
I was learning from the 21/22 years old Boon.

Funny isn't it???

I didn't grow wiser....but i did grow older.

unfortunately.
