Deep thoughts in the party
It's such a oddly wrenching feeling to know that our squad just celebrated our last Unit Day last Saturday. Knowing that after this, it's POP, I wonder if I should have treasured all the times together, the good and bad. I think it's really true, that people won't know to cherish the present until it's gone.
While everyone was having the time of their lives, I was preoccupied with this thought. All this while I have been complaining and whining about NP, now that leaving seems so near, can I really bear to leave? It only seems like yesterday that I was in Sec 1, a cadet fearful of her seniors. I still remember the other day, I met my Sec 1 NCO on the streets. It was sort of like a reversal of roles- I am a Sec 1 NCO now like she was to us 4 years ago. Food for thought, much? I wonder if this will happen to me in the future.
Yes I am going to enjoy everything in CCA, even if it might be too late. Take everything in my stride, learn and live while I can, rejoice in the company of my squadmates, juniors and seniors.
Life is lived in the present. Yesterday is long gone, tomorrow is yet to be, today is the miracle.
