Leaving....

May be, as we age, as we grow older, at a stage where you are neither young nor can be considered senior citizens, it is an age where some people will think you are too young to die.....and too old to be considered young and still young.......you tend to know and appreciate lives more.....or not taking lives for granted.

Within these few weeks back to Malaysia I have heard so many friends' friends, family members passing away due to cancer. And they are in the forties and early fifties. And back to when I was in Beijing, I also see a lot of them died because of cancers....it seems like cancer is every where and more and more people's lives are shortened because of cancer?

In this age with a lot of new technologies, a lot of scientific researches, aren't we suppose to be more healthy? Are we losing to technology? Or have we forgotten about the basic needs of lives, or how to live well.?
I do not know what the answers are, just that, sometimes, the more issues about our lives cropping up, I tend to understand, appreciate every and every thing I learned about Buddhism, and what Buddha has explained about sufferings, about lives.........

Hope everyone try to do more good deeds, get more merits, and live a better quality and meaningful lives.

Namo Tasha.
