tragedy at christmas time

my friend lost her dad the other day due to stroke. she's living here with her husband and kids, and yeah, with her mother. it's painful when the one who passed away is a directly related kin and whose later life was spent away from you. had you been given a day more, you would have indeed thought of spending more time with him and knowing him more.

i just imagine, what if one day, i lose my mom or my dad, the two people who've seen me grow and have known me despite my geographical distance to them. i dreamt of this many times and the awful feeling is seriously unbearable. i couldn't bring myself into that day i would have to face that fateful event and no matter how i prepare myself for it, the pain of losing someone so dear to me is completely unthinkable.

hence, life must really be spent to its fullness because time is always a constraint that no one can go against with. and so, love more and never go easy on anything. because chances are, we will not be given another turn.
