Life is Fragile
I never thought my first official post would be to bring bad news. Ever since I created this blog like months ago, there never was a post fit to be first in line; now there is, but here I am wishing it didnt happen.
Not sure if anyone of you heard about this Taiwanese actress 许玮伦 (Xu Wei Lun).
许玮伦 with Rainie (posted in Rainie's blog)
She met with an accident on Fri (26th Jan) and was in critical condition, but I only got news of this incident after she passed away today at 7:37 when all attempts to save her failed. I'm not a big fan of hers, but seeing her on TV all the time has unknowingly formed some bond between me and her, and I'm really sad for the loss of her. I'm not trying to exaggerate about my sadness now, because I really know what it's like to have a friend involved in an accident.
The first thought that strikes you after you know that the person is seriously injured is that of being unreal. It just doesnt seem like something concrete. After which sadness starts to engulf you. And your mind goes blank. Every thought that comes to mind after that is about the person and praying regardless of whether you have a religion. You would just wish that every and any God would try to help her. And when the doctor tells you to get prepared for the worse, everything is really just sadness and tears overflowing. Luckily for me, my friend survived, so I didnt experience the excruciating pain of losing a loved one (not losing one after I was sensible to fully understand what death is).
You know, these made me think more about life. When I'm crossing the road I'll get reminded of how my friend was involved in the road accident and I'll be extra careful. Honestly, I've been really afraid of jay walking after that incident. Even when I'm crossing at traffic lights, I get really paranoid when some drivers drive really close and refuse to stop till they get to the pedestrian boundary.
Life is really precious - we might not know the meaning of it and always wonder why we have to do something [like why are there projects, submissions, etc]; but all these doesnt matter anymore. What matters is that someone else in the world cares about you and would feel deep grieve if you were to be gone. Never take life lightly.
