The recent devastating news of the missing Malaysia Airlines 777-200 that was operating flight MH370 between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing is an incredible reminder of how short life is and how the lives of your loved ones, next of kins, family and friends can be taken away in just a split second.
The flight which departed Kuala Lumpur at 12.41am on 8 March 2014, with a total number of 227 passengers (including 2 infants) and 12 crew members on board was expected to land in Beijing at 6.30am the same day. Since the news of the tragedy which has generated international news coverage, there has been a lot of rumours and speculations on social media like Facebook as to what happened to Flight MH370 as search and rescue teams worked tirelessly to locate the missing plane.
Did the plane crashed? Was there terrorism involved? How did airport security let two passengers board the plane using fake passports? What does the oil slick found in Vietnam waters indicate? How can a plane just disappear? Aside from the speculations, what about the families and friends of those passengers on board flight MH370? I cannot imagine how devastated by the news they must feel. To not know the whereabouts and the fate of their loved ones is just terrible for anyone to even go through.
We often take our loved ones for granted, thinking that they would always be there like they are immortals and indestructible. The thought of losing someone so suddenly and so unexpectedly is frightening to say the least. It's almost unfair for all the passengers on board that flight with their loved ones worried sick about their safety.
Do take a moment to think about the lives that these people left behind and the lives that they could have lived. Do remember that we as humans at times may be too embedded in our own lives with all our worries, responsibilities and commitments that we lose track of the bigger picture of life.
Don't wait until tragedy struck to realize how important someone means to you. Don't hold grudges and don't let little things stress you out. Take it slow and let it go. Live life to the fullest and have no regrets. And please pray for the safety and wellbeing of those involved in the disappearance of flight MH370.
