The Sunset of Life


It was one cold afternoon of January when I decided to stroll. Just the normal activity I do since I lost my job. It is a perfect time for a realization of the things I have done. I am person who planned everything. I planned on everything from my life goals to career moves.

I remember that before entering my college life I also had a long walk at dawn planning from my biggest goal up to the steps that I need to do to achieve my lifetime goal. This was my beautiful sunrise. When the sun rises from the east it signals a beautiful day. The birds chirps excitedly. The kids are joyously preparing for their activities for the day. The flowers in the garden standing proud awaiting for the sun to finally rise to help them build the food they need. Sunrise signifies a beautiful day ahead. The sun smiles brightly from afar to the creation of this universe excited to fulfill their duties and tasks for the day ahead.

For me, the sunrise is the signal for a day to execute the plans for the day. I planned on the things I need to do on my college days to gain all the experience I needed to land on a professional job after college. My life’s blueprint was all laid up when I finally enrolled in college. I am able to execute all these plans perfectly and was able to reach all goals that I have.

Sunrise signifies a beginning of a journey to a beautiful day. No matter how we conjure the things around us the sun will always rise and the course of the matter will always come to life. No human can ever stop what is bound to happen. The only thing human can do is to decide which way to go. It is the call of nature. What is bound to happen will always happen no matter what.

It will not always be a beautiful sunny day when the sun rises. There will be days where there are storms stronger than the other. Storms that shatters someone else’s life. Storms that will blow everything that you will have. Or there will be days where the sun seems to come closer to us where there is extreme heat. The soils will crack, the plants will wither.

But after all this, the sun will always set in the west. As the sun continues to set the sky turns to different shades of orange. The rays of the sun adorns the blue sky with colors pleasing to the eye until it finally disappears and turns the sky into pitch black.

Sunset is a reminder for us that everything has an end. No matter what the situation is whether it a blizzard of bad lucks or a basketful of luck it will always have an end. It is also a reminder that it was such a fine perfect day.

Just in life, we meet different persona that stumbles our way.

There will be people who would come and shatter our life just like one of our stormy days. They will probably come and leave us with unrepairable damage in our life. There are those people who would come and leave us with penniless. There will be situation forcing us to become the person who we are not. Just like a storm, they will come unexpectedly more often than not they will come at your lowest point.

Sometimes amidst this staggering happenings in our life, someone will come to brighten up our days. Just like a sunrise. It energizes us to do the things we are ought to do. They will light up our life after we come out from the dark. There will be situation, the unexpected one that will come and give us the energy that we needed the most inspiring us to exceed the expectation on the things are destined to do.


Above all, there will be someone who will always be our sunset. The one who will always be there reminding us that everything shall pass and everything will come to an end. Just like the beautiful sunset with wide range of colors adorning the sky, that person will always be that someone who resets us to have that there will tomorrow waiting with the hopes of a better than that of today and yesterday. It is our sunset that reminds us that there will be hope of a better tomorrow.

That was the meaning of sunset for me. It is a reminder that no matter what there will always be an end of all the things that is happening. It gives us hope for a new tomorrow. So who is that person who will be the sunset of your life. That person who will remind you that everything shall come to an end.
