Ofcourse Shen is Still Alive

The fact that I have written my own Death Note just a few days ago does not mean that I like to deceive my friends and fellow members of BROOD. The thing is I want to impart to everyone that life is too short for us to be comfortable and not act while we still can. I want to be close to everyone and feel that indeed together we are making a difference. I would like to send my apology to anyone who had been depressed by the message but I hope that I did convey the message because someday that letter would be true.

However as I searched for a poem to send to everyone, I came across this poem and realized things that I might be forgetting... the basic things in life which is enjoying each moment while making a difference. Here is the poem which I would like to share to all of you...

When’s the last time you watched kids on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain as it tickled the ground?
Have you followed a butterfly’s erratic flight,
stood and gazed at the sun as it faded to night?

You had better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Do you rush through each day as if on the fly,
never catch up however you try?
When the day is done do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores running through your head?

You had better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Have you ever told your child, “We’ll do it tomorrow?”
And in your haste, not seen her sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die
because you never had time to call and say “Hi”?

You had better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

When you’re running so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift just thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower.
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
