I am among those “blessed” who have missed many of the life’s beautiful moments due to delaying tasks and deluding my wits with the promises of tomorrow.
On my do list, Tauba (asking for forgiveness) is on top but I am delaying it on the hope that I have still a long life to live, “many” things to see, “various” activities to do. My Lord, I sin but will beg mercy tomorrow.
I made many mistakes. Many people were hurt due to my selection of words. No offense, but folks, I yet have to piss you off on few things, so wait until I knock at your doors and ask for the forgiveness. I know this but I will do it tomorrow.
Power made me mad, and “small god” in me did things which I had pledged not to, when I was taking the charge. I have to go and say sorry to those I sacked, fired or made their working life hell in the name of procedures, quality and standards. I realize this but I will do it tomorrow.
Not to mention the eyes who cried for me. Prayed for me, but I never went back to tell them, I also love them and miss them. Now you know, I will do it tomorrow.
Tomorrow never comes, every wise man has said. They were (are) innocent people as my tomorrow always comes and I have shamelessly done the same for many years. So why change today, I will do it tomorrow.
