    To the family: May the comfort from family and friends strengthen you during this difficult time, and may you find comfort in the words found in the Holy Scriptures: “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

    I’ve been through a lot of death; death from diassees, death from accidents, death from violence, and all the consequences of them. And I’m only 23. I never refuse that it may happen to my family too .No, it already happened. I know someday it’ll come and I’ve tried to be prepared. But somehow I just cannot make it.I know those things can happen to me too. I’ve passed through a lot of medical processes. I feel vulnerable but it’s ok. Human is vulnerable. We are not special. It just happens. I was sorrow for a long time but then, someone told me we had to live with the present or we’ll never find peace. That’s true. That’s what people do when it’s time for tragic. Live with the present and what we’ve got now, not what we used to have or will have. Do not be imaginative at this time. We have to know our emotion, know how we feel and just deal with it. That’s what I’ve tried to do for all these years and it keeps me alive.Well, I may talk some crap. Sorry. I never tell my thought to anyone because my imagination tells me that no one wants to hear. But I just want to say it.
