I want more of that health, I want more of that wealth, I want more of that patience, I want more of that intelligence, I want more of that creativity, I want more of that laughter, I want more of that energy, I want more of life, I know it can give me that, I am in the process of getting them.

Celebrating Life…

I had the chance to catch the tail end of the concert organised by the late Princess Diana's sons the other day. I so beat myself for missing it. And yesterday I managed to watch the interview given by the handsome princes.

William and Harry threw a concert in conjunction with their mother's birthday to celebrate her life and what she stood for when she was alive. Diana was a compassionate royalty who not only became famous because of her marriage to the British heir but also for the works she had done for the people in need. We are often reminded of her in many ways, many times by photographs of her talking to a sick person or holding an undernourished baby.

The legacy she left behind is enormous. And this is what the sons are trying to convey to the world. They want us to remember Diana as a woman who gave her heart and soul into making the lives of others more meaningful, instead of remembering how tragically her life ended that day in Paris.

Life is very short. Diana is a strong reminder of how short it can be. She had fill that short years in giving joy to the people around her. And when my time here expires, I hope I've done well for my loved ones and the people around me.
