On Growing Old

Most people fear death. They are afraid to die because they still have so many things to do here on earth. They are afraid to die because they just want to live. Sometimes some people wish they were immortals so that they will have an endless life. God said that heaven is where we will live eternally but still many people choose to stay alive here on this world than to experience a different touch of happiness in heaven. If someone asks me right now if I am afraid to die, my answer would be no. I am not afraid to die, I am just afraid of not being with the ones I love.
If I were to plan my life, I would choose to live longer. Before, I always wanted to be a doctor that is why I would like to take up BS Biology in UP College but then, I feel that BS Biology is not the course for me that is why I have decided to shift from BS Biology to Political Science. I want to be a lawyer this time. Actually, I do not know why I changed my mind but I hope I made the right decision. I want to be a successful lawyer. I want to have a simple life and a simple home. It does not matter to me if the house is big or it is small. I do not care if it is expensive or not as long as it can be called home. I want to help my parents when I can finally finish my studies and become a professional. I want them to rest, or should I say, I want them to stop working. I know that they have already worked hard for the both of us (my sister and I). I also want to get married someday. My wife may not be good at household chores but as long as she loves me, it does not matter. We would have beautiful children. We will be happy. I will work hard so that I can send our children to a good school. Then one day, when our children are already finish in their studies and they are independent enough to go on with their own lives, then my wife and I would be ready to die. I wish that we could grow old together and die together but as what people always say. He only knows how and when He will take us back.
Life is just too short. I want to treat each day as if it is my last. I will let the ones I love know that I love them everyday. I will never lose hope as long as I live. Life here on earth is too short so I want to make the most out of it. Live life to the fullest!
