They say, "Time is Gold." for me "Memories is Gold." those people who are saying time is gold are mostly rushing. For those people that memories is more important they take time, they enjoy the moment the NOW. Both time will never come back. Like today, I'm seating in the floor typing in my laptop at 1:42PM February 10, 2022. It can't be the same day tomorrow. My candle of life is slowly melting 30 years or more from now I will be a Grandmother. Yes, I'm still looking forward to that future. Life itself is very beautiful. Only few people realize it, the purpose of life, or how you should spend your time here on Earth. As for me, who is the person very attached to people. It is hard for me to always let go. 

My dad passed away recently and from time to time I remember him. I still cry whenever I miss him. I love him dearly my DAD. All the Memories we have spend time together, which I don't think about when he was alive, I keep on thinking about it. My mind is trying to retrieve those memories so I wont forget him. My Dad use to bring me to school when I was young, I remember I'm crying whenever he was going home. The feeling I felt that time still lingers in my mind, the feeling of being with the strange people who's I'm not familiar with and seeing my Dad walking away breaks my heart. My Dad left me. But that's where I learn to stand on my own without Dad. I become brave, I made him proud until his last breath. My dear Dad whom I love. He teach me how to sing, how to dance, and he boost my confidence, My Dad whom I love teaches me a lot. I knew in my heart that I made him Happy while he was here on Earth. 

How should we really spend our time here on Earth? Actually, nobody knows even me. What I know that is true on what they are saying nothing is permanent in this world. We will loose people and everything. Even the things that are valuable to us. Sometimes I feel afraid. But our Lord Jesus Christ said. "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been please to give you the Kingdom. 

Every people have a different path. Maybe when we are still a fetus. Our Father, already writing our mission here on Earth it should be balance to all other people. It is included in our mission is to teach people. Make people realize something. But for me, at the end of the night I always think for is someday, I will go back to my Father our Lord Jesus Christ. Cause everything I have even the most valuable person that he gave me. Even how valuable they are. Lord Jesus Christ is the only person I trust most. I know he will never fail me. Always, whatever he wants me to do has a purpose. 

My purpose in life? To enjoy it. Live happily and Focus to our Father, whatever we do I should always think about him. Always think about the purpose of what I'm doing is for the Lord Jesus Christ. And my mission is to enjoy my life, serve my mission and make sure to go back to him. Like my Dad, what I will left here on Earth is "Memories I share with people." It should be meaningful and Jesus Christ bringing me on Earth should be worth it. I should be worth it for him. I will go back running to his arms listening to him while saying "Mission Accomplish My Child you can rest now."
