The Treasure That You Have…

Recently 2 Asian countries got hit by deadly natural disasters. If you all read the papers or even saw the news, you will know that China got hit by a servere earthquake while Myanmar was hit by deadly cyclone. It is estimated that more than 5 figures of people had died from these disasters.

It is believed more people are being trapped under the rambles in China. The rescue mission was furthered delayed due to road being destroyed and not accessible now, thus causing inconvieniences for rescue vechicles and machinery to travel to the affected site.

On Myanmar side, it wasn’t easy too as the military junta are not allowing foreign aids to the country, thus creating more hindrance and delay for the aid to arrive for the survivors. It seem that they have no sign of relenting even though plea from other countries were made. Some of the food aids that went in were instead used as propaganda tools! If this goes on, epidemic of diseases might happen and this could be detrimental.

From the above 2 incidents, we can see that natural disasters can destroy what we had and brought their family members and loved ones away from us. To make matter worst, even scientists said they are unable to detect the disasters with the accuracy of happening.

A lot of times, we might take things for granted and assumed that things will always be the same and will never change. This kind of thought can cause eternal regret for you shall one day things do changes without us knowing it. Instead, we should treasure and cherish the people, things around us so that you won’t leave any regret. Saying that you will treasure it is different from showing it by actions. Most of the time actions is more effective than just by saying it. 

We can’t predict the future but we can do the best for each of everyday. It is better to treasure today instead of regretting tomorrow, so let’s start treasure the people, things around us and leave no regrets for ourselves as we don’t have a second chance to do so.
