Distant Appointment

We, Chinese, seldom make a distant appointment with people. We always say, “see you again someday later”. It means that we may see again ten days later, or one year, ten years, or even we may never see each other again. It is Chinese way when we say goodbye with the people we meet.
But, no matter how distant the appointment is, this day will come. It is because time slips onwards non-stopping. Sun rises up and falls down every day and repeat same tomorrow. It is ever lasting. To our human, it is different. Time gone is gone forever. It never comes back. Time makes a child to an old person and then we disappeared in this world.
Appointment in the family is usually at a period of one year. For example, an old father will celebrate his birthday every year, children who scattered in different parts of the world will come home together to join the celebration. It is a one-year appointment of the children.
But, we must have distant plan to fulfil success of our life. If we are a person of no distant plan, we shall be a failure. Time runs so fast and silently. We must seize the time to do something for us to our achievement.
