London bomb plot foiled

juz saw tis on the 10pm news and i am still reeling in shock at wat might haf been a replay of sep 11, or even a terrorist act of a bigger magnitude.

thank goodness the plot was foiled. the consequences would haf been unbearable and unthinkable if it hasn't.

suddenli the threat feels so real. working in a company tat places employee security above all has made mi a lot more acute and sensitive to such news. i haf seen the numerous security measures deployed since sep 11 and i m glad my company cares enuff to make sure we r all safe.
but singaporeans r generally too complacent. we all haf a part to play in the war on terrorism and we can all do our bit by co-operating wif the authorities and paying more attention to things tat go on around us. tis is not juz a war against the govts, it is a war against mankind and humanity.

tracy sent mi the pict by kevin carter a few days back and i haf been tinking abt it. it reminded mi of how blessed mi and everyone i noe is, to haf food and other life sustaining things tat we take for granted. while we haf a choice over wat we want to eat, let us not waste food. i am especially grateful when i brought my kids out and they haf food tat they like.

back to the london bomb plot news. i can imagine the chaos at the airports and the frustration tat ppl may feel as a result of the security measures. but all these is necessary to ensure the safety of everyone. and safety or the preservation of lives is the utmost priority rite now.
the london train blasts happened not so long ago and the indian train bombings happened barely a mth ago. tinking back and closer to home was the Bali attack.

from now on, everyday i'll count my blessings,
tat my family and frens r safe and juz a phonecall away.
tat we haf the privilege to dream and haf aspirations.
tat our problems r not a matter of life and death.

it is a chaotic world tat we live in tdy.don't forget to tell ur loved ones u love them. dun hold back if u wana hug someone. dun b afraid to pursue ur dreams.

it is not how long we live but how well we live, the quality of life is more impt den longevity itself.
