loved ones/ 10:53 AM I do hope that J can take it easy and stay strong. It's a difficult period for him personally. He's in the midst of his exams yet he has to face the news of the passing of a close family member. I've known him for more than 15 years and I'm sure he'll find the strength to move on and cope with things. He always has been the cheerful type and it's sad to see him hit rather hard by the recent events. Stay strong bro! My greatest fear is to live in isolation, where my loved ones are all gone. I don't know how can I cope with that. As I grew up, I've certainly thought about the what-ifs...scenarios if one day my so-and-so were to pass on, how would I react to that. I shudder upon those thoughts and till now, I have yet to find the courage to face up to that fear. Chiobu best friend at home have talked about the possibility of her passing on in the coming years...possibly before I get married or start my own family. I would always divert to topic to something more cheerful and like telling her that she's still young, chio and she's got a duty to take care of my kids for me till they're 21 and she ain't going anywhere before that. I'm thankful and feel blessed for having chiobu best friend cos she's been my confidante and a living guardian angel for the past 22 years of my life. I may not have been the nicest grandson around but I know she loves me the most in the family and vice versa. Whenever my friends pop by, I'd intro her as the chiobu in my family and she is always hip enough to play along. Seriously, I'm having mixed feelings now...I know I should be happy yet I'm feeling the sadness creeping in... I've made it a point to come back home and taste the goodies my chiobu best friend painstakingly cooked for me, talk to her every now and then, and give her a well-deserved 1x good massage at night. That's the least I can do... |
