It's never too late to care for the ones you love

Yesterday, I watched Rambo IV, an action triller that was set in Burma, a place which is still in war till now, that have raged for more than 60 years.

Imagine a world, not like ours. A world where death is so common, its an everyday thing. There are mine fields everywhere, in the tropical jungle, where one false move will cause your life.

The army who are suppose to protect the people, go from village to village, burning them to the ground, killing aged men, raping women, and kidnapping children to be trained as soldiers. Mercyless, killing people as their second nature.

The people there were living in constant fear. Everyday, they will be praying, that they can live for one more day. Saying goodbyes everyday to their family, who is going out for hunting, that maybe its the last time they will meet.

It makes me feel,that we are so lucky. We are so lucky living in a peace loving country, where every life is valuable.

However, we sometimes lost our path. Busy chasing our dreams, that we forgot, did you see your parents lately?

Sometimes we forget how fragile life is.

Start caring for them, you will never know when is your last. No matter its your friends or family, it's never too late to start caring for the ones you love.
