as much as this person wants to cherish his mum, he was unable to do so. likewise for his daughters because breast cancer was incurable at that time. she was young, her daughters were even younger. but who knew that would happen.

i was told,
"cherish your mum..."


i definitely will.

not only her but all my loved ones.

sometimes, i get so used to them always being around me that i forget how they might one day leave me.

it takes life example like this to knock us back into the reality. the reality of how mortality is inevitable, to both the young and old. it brings me back to one simple life lesson.

Never take anyone for granted, hold every person close to your heart, because you might one day wake up and realise that you have lost a diamond while being too busy collecting stones.


i must say, i do respect him. he told me to study hard for a good cert and not be like his daughters who got married at the age of 19.

he said,
"that piece of toilet paper is really important because only with that toilet paper, you can then shit at any toilet bowl."

i agree, much.

funny how a short fifteen minutes conversation with a stranger could stir up much thoughts in me.

most life lessons cannot be taught in the classroom. how true.

to end this off.
as much as i do feel irritated by your nagging at times, im really aware of all that you have done for me and i thank you for that. dont worry, i wont dump you into the old folks home next time. hahaha.

i love you, much.
happy mother's day <3
