Life is about smiles and even cries. Life is about happiness and even sadness. Life is about loving and even losing love. Life is about successes and failures. Life is about risks. Life is about enjoying the company of others and seeing the world. Life is about family and friends. Life is about feeling pain and even about growing up. Life is about learning lessons and trying to be better. Life is how we make it.
I have this belief or some say motto which is live your life each day as if it were the last so that we treasure and savor each moment of our lives. We never know what’s in store for us tomorrow. Tomorrow might even never come. Why waste each day when you can do something now.
Let us never think that there is a lifetime ahead of us so we can just take our time. How would we know how long each of us would live? So, it is best to love as if it were the last and to live as if it were the last day of our lives.
Let us cherish the gift of life and use our days wisely. Finally, the best thing we can do while still alive is to do something for others so as we get ready for anything that might happen to us tomorrow, we feel secure and happy that we have lived a full life.
As what I usually say as my battle cry or my usual spiel, Para sa kauswagan sang Syudad sang Iloilo, UGYON Kabataang Ilonggo, UGYON Iloilo. Ilonggos are worth working and fighting for.
