MRT vs Life

I got this from someone's blog...shall not disclose who..but i hope he/she doesn't mind =) Thought it was really meaningful and insightful, and just wanna share with my blog readers...

Ever sat in an MRT train and watched the different people?

Some dozing off, some listening to their MP3 players, some reading papers, some just talking to others - everyone trying to do their own thing..

Everyone in their own world..

Yet there's one thing they share that is the same - their travelling in the same direction inside the train (eastwards or westwards..)

Some will get off earlier and some later .. Some will ride the train till its final stop .. and then get off ..

Its much like life ain't it?

Everyone does their own thing, some are out to make big bucks, some are out to make big families ..

Whatever their aims - they're all going the same way, and one day, DEATH overtakes us all ..

Some will depart earlier and some later .. and some last until the End of Days ..
But all have to get off the train one day ..

Question is: when you get off Life's train, will you have the right card to get out of the underground subway, to the place above? Or remain stuck for all eternity, underground?

-end-

at the end of the day, when i look at own reflection, all i see of myself is a stained piece of cloth...terribly disgraced and ashamed with the sins i've committed, the unholy thoughts that linger, the malicious tongue that speaks...wish i could be more perfect for the glory of God.
