Swan's Story

In Cape Town there lived a man who is a loving person lived his life to the fullest, every moment of his life he was just doing things he liked. Each morning, when he wakes up, he gets out of his bed, he would not fold his blanket or keep his bed, he would go straight out and take a look at how beautiful Mother Nature is, and his mum who went over there to visit him, always complains about how messy he is, and he would just put his mum away from packing his bed and tell her " Mum, dont bother about the bed, look at the scenary! Enjoy every moment!"

When he is free he would sit down in front of his computor and do some designs, or take pictures of nature. flowers, butterflies and show it to his mum , telling her how beautiful the nature creations are. And soon, his uptight mum learned to appreciate nature, she would climbed up a rock nearby the house and looked over the beauty of Cape Town, and can just stay there for hours, learning and appreciating every moment of nature beauty.

This man's Mum does not stay with him and had to return back to Singapore and get back to work. She told her son, when she retires she would move back to Cape Town and stay with him for good and appreciate Nature and appreciating every moments of their lives together.

That never happened, the man died at the age of 38 and before his mum retire..

The moral of this story.. This man although he died young with many unfulfilled dreams but he lived more then anyone of us alived now, because, he never wasted his time in doing something he despised but he enjoyed every single moment of his life doing what he loves.

This man's mum is my friend, Mdm Swan, the man was her son-in-law..

This story was told to me by Mdm Swan to me today, I had a terrible day.. but I am glad I didnt cry because of what happened to me today, I cried because I was very touched by this story.

The impact of this story told me to me today, will remain forever in my heart, no amount of money can take this story away from my heart.

Thank you Mdm Swan, I will never forget you.
