Hell yeah, i apologize for not updating this blog.

Well, my great grandma died last week, at the age of 91.
It was such a sad weekend.
Everyone showed up with deep dark circles, eyebags and teary eyes.
I felt absolutely sad even though i wasn't really close to her.

I could imagine how the people who were closer to her feel about her loss.
During the closing of the coffin, everyone cried when we were down on our knees, praying and making sure we keep our heads down and eyes closed.
I may not be close to her when she was alive, but i felt the piercings, the stings, the heartaches.
I told myself to be strong, despite that, tears still flow down my cheeks.
It was such a sad weekend.

People were born, they live, they find happiness, they create new generation, they grow old, and eventually, they die.
What's really important in life, is the way you lead your life, from when you were born until the day you stopped breathing.
My great grandma lived, she found happiness, she created new generation (7 kids), and she was strong enough to live longer than we thought..
Even in the most critical situation, she manage to hold on and wait for her most beloved son to appear.
Till then, she lived with the help of a machine.
Her son appeared and within hours, she stopped breathing and left the world.
Her determination to live stopped, when she knew it was time for her to go.

It was sad.
Purely sadness.
Despair.
Sorrow.
Darkness.

Then again, it's life.
People die, eventually.
Before that happens, do cherish your loved ones cos they'll perish one day.
And that one day may seem far, but nobody knows, it may be tomorrow? or even today?
Lesson learnt : No matter what happens, never stop loving your loved ones.

"i don’t think it’s time that heals hearts, but distance from the person you were when you loved." It takes so much courage to fall in love. So much risk to trust someone you barely knew. One moment feeling so sure that he's the one who will always be there for you till the end of time. Then the next, feeling all crushed up because you realized that life is unfair and somehow, disappointments and anxiety keeps hitting in your face. I never thought distance could be a problem. The feeling of insecurity.
It's not that I believe everything happens for a reason. It’s just that… I just think that some things are meant to be broken. Imperfect. Chaotic. It’s the universe’s way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It’s how life is. — Sarah Dessen Reminiscing old times as a Studio Ghibli Freak
