Lived It!

A friend's mum passed away about a week ago after falling from a cliff where she and her colleague went trekking in a jungle. The body was badly decomposed and both of them found dead after couple of days missing. A loss of a prominent pediatrician i was told.

I had a chat with him recently and he talked fondly of his mum and how passionately she was about life. I don't know her at all but many colleagues of mine here somehow knows her and only have really good things to say about her. Vibrant and full of energy kindda person with a very positive attitude towards life.

Somehow it strikes me whether i lead a full life? I would like to think that i am living the life that i want, though at times i do have doubts! Nevertheless i am always grateful to the life that i have and living every moment of it. Like everyone, i have my ups and down but in general i am a happy person. Of course happiness is a very subjective matter, but i believe we make ourselves happy and should be in the driving seat. Our happiness can be contributed by others but more importantly, we should be in control of our well being. Lived it!
