Life’s lessons from #MH17 and #MH370: Take nothing for granted

MH17

 

The heartbreaking news of #MH370 and now #MH17 is testament of how fragile and unpredictable life is. Calamity and tragedy can happen at any time, without prejudice.

The lessons to take from all of this? Live life to the fullest. Carpe diem. #YOLO.

Love your family. Your friends. Your pets.

Love the earth. Your country. Your religion.

Take nothing for granted. Not your loved ones and those around you.

Tell them you love them.

Love one another.

Love yourself.

Have empathy.

My heart goes out to passengers, crew and families of #MH370 #MH17; and the innocent women, children and people who have perished in Gaza.

Hug someone.

Tears flow.
