Another new year,another new beginning

2007 is just round the corner. Another new year, another new beginning.Nevermind if the ending of 2006 has not been to your satisfaction,you can always begin again in 2007.
After all everything starts with Number 1, and every new calendar starts with January.

Once you get your new diary, one of the first thing that you do is jot down the important dates,the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and other important dates that is relevant to your life.....
Your bornday is one of them, not so much as a reminder but out of curiousity you just want to know, what day it will be...whether it is over a weekend or in the middle of the week.
I know mine will be on a Monday...

However, it has never crossed your mind, when your goneday will be in the new calendar...
Obviously, you do not know unless you are serving a death sentence and the date has been fixed!!!!

Why am i fussing about this because, over the last few days i was having my A-musings of Second Thoughts on death by cancer.
Yes the BIG C, you never know when it will strike and when you know, it is too late...
I do not know and have never seen the sufferings of a cancer patient, so i cannot say anything about it. Thank God that, thus far none of my family members have succumb because of that...
I was told that the pain is unbearable....

But comparing cancer death to death in a road accident, the consolation in cancer death is that you will have some time frame to make amends and seek forgiveness before you finally bunk off.

That might be the only consolation, despite the fact that you are counting the days, when the day will come...

Oh what a thought to ponder on, whilst awaiting the new year!!!

So my new year's resolution this time is "Please God, help me be nice to my dear ones , if i have not been that nice all this while,
make me a simpler person to be with and take away all my prejudices and stereotyping of other people...in simpler term...make me make less comments on other people....they are entitled to be what they want to be, even if it is the most idiotic thing....."

It is not too late to make another new beginning, because every moment is a new beginning, until death...when the old compulsary questions are asked...questions which you have been told over and over again in your life time...there is no new question or booby trap questions...just the plain simple question....beginning with "Who....?

Let us begin a new beginning...good luck..

Tuan,
Aku dah selamat sampai mengharung banjir.
I feel fit after that gruelling Putrajaya ride.
I am getting ready my trusty old T-Bolt again for resumption of Kampung rides.
Our motto " Low carb diet and remain on the saddle!"
It is a mental revolution of sorts!
