SELAMAT HARI RAYA WORLD!!!!

Liverpool FC 09/10 Squad Picture....

so here's what i've been eagerly waiting for, for quite a while now...

front-seat of disaster...

i was at a bus-stop with my sister after a quick trip to Geylang to get some stuff for hari raya. then i heard a woman shouting which was quickly followed by the sound of a vehicle braking and honking at the same time. i was looking down most of the times as it was quite a hot and the sunlight was giving a glare. so i looked up and saw a lorry almost skidding and just a few metres in-front of it, an old woman, dashing across the road. she didnt manage to get out of the way, but the lorry did,

only to have the side mirror of the lorry to smack the old woman's skull.

the impact tossed her for a couple of metres and she laid flat on the road.

a man then rushed to the road to carry the old woman while some were busy discussing what happened, shocked and tried to call the ambulance.

the driver of the lorry got off his seat, out of the lorry and checked the condition of the old woman.

another woman from across the road, i believe her daughter, broke into tears and shouted for help before getting to the other side of the road, where the old woman was lying on a grass patch.

a little puddle of blood could be seen on the road that made me think,

is this a reminder, a lesson to us?

that life can just change even before we can snap our fingers, that being careless can kill.

you might be happily shopping with your family one minute. on the other, you might find yourself lying down on the road - that's if you're lucky.

so let's treasure what we have now, all our heroes, all the people that had made a great impact in our lives. let's appreciate them, and ourselves. like people say, better be save than sorry. biar lambat asal selamat and many many others that mean the same thing.

ponder upon it.
