Another post with 3 dots by the end of the title's name...
I just had a short conversation with Maija. In the middle of it (even though the word was not literally said or written) she mentioned about death.
Long story short...
I mean, short story shorter...the conversation ended, I signed off, but left the computer on...
I went to bed, ready to go to sleep. In less than a minute I came back to the screen...
What she mentioned made me think, and I realized I've been writing in this blog for over 2 years now...
It's not about how many posts I've made, because to think about it, I'm not really a productive blogger. This is my 71st post since September 18 2006, that is 744 days ago....which means in average, I only publish a post once every 10.478873 days...lets make it 11 days.
But, again...it's not about how many posts I've made...it's just that 2 years flew so fast..too fast even!
To quote from the very first post I made:
"Through this blog i hope that i will find people that will be "somebody" for me by giving their comments and inputs for me to be a better person,....and who knows i can also be "somebody" for other people by sharing my experiences.
And by time, maybe you will start to know more about me, my life, and why the hell did i take that stupid picture :-) "
I always believe that how good you are is measured by how useful you are to others. That's why there's no such thing as the "best person", because you can always find more "others" in your life. Being the best knows no limits....
So I hope besides as a place to express my self, this blog can also be one of my ways to be useful to others in whatever way....whether I know it or not...
I even started to post some of my posts in Facebook as a note lately...
Anyways, is this just another episode of my pass-midnight random thoughts?
I don't think so...maybe....actually, even if it is...who cares?!
Somewhere by the end of our conversation, she told me "the world needs you"...
She's right, the world needs me.
And if you're reading this blog, Maija, for damn sure the world needs you too!
And if you're reading this whoever you are, the world needs you...!
And too all of you who's not reading this, I hope these words will come to your mind through all other possible ways...the world needs you!
Just like how we need each part of our body...this world needs each part of it...it needs us.
Because we are a part of this world.
And the truth is...time is short...
And since I'm not yet a good person, I want to always be a better person...
Until I can be a good person...
And when I'm a good person then, I want to always be a better person...

So true! And a discussion that it triggered in my head - sometimes it's just so easy to drift away to the philosophical discussions and wonderings about life, but the truth is - living happens here today. So in becoming a better person it's equally important to DO something about it, just live - living is sometimes the answer for the question you can't figure out in your head.
we seriously need to chat...!!! :)
