A friend once told me that nothing in the world can be more life changing than birth or death of someone close. I believe that its the reminder of our own mortality that makes us think about life and how we are using or squandering the precious few moments we have left.
During my 25 years I have had a few moments of my life that were connected with the fragility of life and death. Each one of those moments taught and inspired me to rethink and reevaluate my life.
One of the reasons I don’t like shopping is coz I can never ask the right questions while I am at it. I always ‘think’ of what should be asked and then wonder ‘shouldn’t that be obvious to this salesperson?’. As you can imagine it leads to some awkward situations.
A little while back I had to do a little shopping and this time it was for a gift. I had zeroed in on picking up a perfume but hadn’t decided the brand. So I head over to the mall and am smelling my way to a gift :P
