A Birthday Message

In the beginningless and endless stream of time, night and day, rain and shine, roll endlessly on; they are carried mercilessly on over the universe by flood. The term of living beings diminishes with every day. While being carried forward in the flood, man is surprisingly unaware of his fate; he never spends a thought on his fast declining life-term. He is blind in his ignorance.

Riches and wealth are short-lived; office and authority are temporary; the life-breath is a flickering flame in the wind. Youth is a three-day fair. Pleasures and fortunes are bundles of sorrow. Knowing this, if man devotes this limited term of life to the service of the Almighty, then, he is indeed blessed.

Birthdays are but arbitrary milestones of life's journey on earth. But its significance lies on how you traveled the road, the loved ones you allowed to join you, the humps you surpassed and the people you met along the way.

I want to say THANK YOU to the people who unconditionally joined me in this wonderful journey of laughters and tears...in this meaningful journey called LIFE...my dearest family who has always been my inspiration...my friends who are always there to support me... and to the people I met along this journey who made it more colorful for me to define the real meaning of life.
