We are each on our own journey. Each of us is on our very own adventure; encountering all kinds of challenges, and the choices we make on that adventure will shape us as we go; these choices will stretch us, test us and push us to our limit; and our adventure will make us stronger then we ever know we could be.
— So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would’ve done?
GOTTA LIVE LIKE WE’RE DYING.
Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish it’s source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.
– (via kari-shma) Via Quote Book:Nothing in this universe happens just once. Nothing. Infinity goes in both directions. There’s no unique event, no singular moment.
– Emily Brennan, Bones— Please, see me in my dreams.
I’m missing her right now. I always do. She’s always on my mind. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her. It seems that there’s always something to remind me of her. Her smile. Her face. Her gestures. When I’m home, I always imagine her sitting on the doorstep in front of the house, just looking to people passing by. I can always imagine her watching soap operas during the afternoon. That’s her favorite past time. I missed her waiting for me to come home during the time that I am working on a graveyard shift. She would know what time I will be home and she’s always awake to open the door for me. I missed her asking for a little amount of money when pay day comes. And that money she will keep so that she would have something to give us when we ask for coins from her. I missed her always getting excited to cook especially if its vegetable with her favorite “bagoong.” I missed her “sermon.” I missed her moving around the house always finding something to do. I missed everything about her. It’s been 22 months since she left but the pain is still the same. I will forever regret making an excuse to see her on that hospital bed. Had I known that it will be the last time, I would have held her hand up to her last breath. But I did make an excuse because I just can’t look at her. I can’t bear to see her in so much pain. I went home that day and slept to take a rest. I woke up with the sound of my sister crying and telling me she had passed away.
Now, what I always pray for is for her to see me in my dreams. I wanted to see her. To hug her. To tell her that she is right in so many ways about life and love. I want to be able to talk to her. Tell her things I should have told her when she was still alive. I want to talk to her about what’s happening on our family. She would have something to advice. She would know what to say and what to do. That’s for sure.
I hope to see her again. Someday. We will meet again. And I hope when that day comes, she will be like her old self. Strong and well. Smiling and proud.
I miss you so much ‘La. Please, see me in my dreams.
