Life

What will be said of your name if it were to be found in a dictionary? What will you have accomplished?

I feel a chill down my spine when I think of this very thought. It makes me understand my purpose in life and where I want to go. It gives me strength to figure out the 'how' in getting to where I want to go.

Make the most of life.

Update (14/12/10): I penned down what I want to be remembered for.

* was an amazing man, a wonderful father, a true gentleman, an inspiration to so many.

He battled through difficult times to become a success.

* worked hard to become who he was. He grew up from humble beginnings. From an early age he learnt the hard way what it took to succeed. He studied hard to gain entry into a prestigious course, worked in government and finance before venturing out and creating an empire.

What shone through with * is his determination to succeed. No matter what happened he never gave up, he was optimistic, and he dared to believe. * believed in creating the future, that everything is vanity, and that life was there to to be enjoyed.

* played hard. He was very competitive, but in a good way. * loved exploring, loved travelling, and loved helping others.

* was always there for his family and friends, his loving wife and children, and the wider global community. He always thought about other people, and did what he could to improve their lives. This was encapsulated by the time and energy he devoted to those less fortunate. Through his actions, many of the poor today face a brighter future.
