Yes, I've been a donor for 2 decades
What an early surprise gift! ð
Whenever we reach the Annual Life Crossover (aka birthday) when we were a tiny tot, it is always about presents and what makes us happy and how much presents we can get.
Then the years go by when you come to an age, when time comes to announce another year crossed, you're just grateful you're still alive to see a card in my mailbox.
These days the latter feeling comes more and more real to me, especially within 5 years there are 4 of my own age has dropped off from the face of the earth suddenly , from dust to dust , allowing me to look back how far I have journeyed, and how many more days I can still open my eyes and say, "thank You Lord, for a new day" ?
Yes, life can be a bliss even if we are standing in the midst of storms after storms, that's where we get to appreciate the lessons we learn to be a better person along the way.
Like how many times do you get to celebrate with people you work alongside and yet have the same birthday month / quarter, better still, our birth dates are actually within a week?
How many times do you still get to learn something really cool like a sound system in an impromptu manner?
Or even pick up the mic and be a supporting backup on oldies you haven't heard for a decade?
Or be the craziest choir conductor ever after at least 3 decades not doing so, and need to release everything?
Yes, life can be full of challenges or full of opportunities. It is up to us to choose its narrative
It doesn't have yo be executed perfectly, because life is a journey of lessons. Just smile with a funny ðĪŠ face when things are a bit chaotic, learn, and be better next time.
Oftentimes, we are our worst critic, and because of pride, many challenges were never turned into opportunity as our embetterment .
We become our own roadblocks in life
But as long as we are still breathing, it is not the end
Things can be better, and will be better.
