was about scuba diving into illegal depths. was about getting the car up to speed, even on congested singapore roads. was about living like there's no tomorrow. no regards for safety. no qualms about getting into mortal danger. as the saying probably goes, "if you have no done those, you have not lived."
but as a creationist believer, what is life? or living? God created the world. created us. is it about the experience?
about 4 weeks ago, I was given a chance to build an incubator and try to hatch a number of quail eggs. one did and we even gave it a name. Isaac. it wasn't from dust like God did Adam. but we deemed it good too.
chick was cute and it was a wonderful experience for all of us seeing it happen, on top of the sense of achievement. a week later, it died. without an apology or even the return of the lifeless form.
question: were we playing some sort of god? or are we merely facilitators? obviously the latter because God created the process and we just followed through methodically and lo and behold. as fast as it came, it went.
in this world of ours, life is fragile. sure things happen. and sometimes beyond control. but what we have, we ought to cherish. there is a tomorrow. there is a future. not many people may care about whether you make it or not but God does. why else would He waste a day on creating us? he could have taken 2 days of rest.
life. is about being.
you will be missed.
