RANDOM: A Piece of Mind
Once when I was a little kid, I never thought about being left forever. I thought there was nothing that could separate someone from the world.
But I was wrong. As time passed by, I knew the word 'Death'. People described it in various terms but, as for me, it only meant one thing: 'forever goodbye'.
Because you could never talk to the person anymore. Because you couldn't see that person anymore. Because you couldn't do things you always did with that person. Because everything would never be the same anymore.
People die everyday, they said. It's inevitable. However, even though for the world it just decreased world population, for others it's one thing they never wanted to face.
Regret. Apology. Tears. All come too late after the worst strike.

What I wrote on my Tumblr:
Once when I was a little kid, I never thought about having no parent. I thought every child in this world lived happily with their parents.
I was wrong. As time passed by, I knew what ‘Death’ meant. It could be described in so many ways but for me it meant ‘forever goodbye’.
Why?
Because you could never talk with that person anymore. Because you couldn’t see that person anymore. Because everything would never be the same anymore.
To be honest, I have a complete family up till now. I never faced a sad event of losing someone who was important to me and I am really grateful for that. I attended a funeral for my great grandmother, the mother of my grandmother, but I didn’t cry.
I knew it’s her time and she had gone through a lot. I never want to think what if I need to attend a funeral of my beloved ones. I’m not ready yet. No matter what reason it will be.
Therefore movies, dramas, and stories always give me many life lessons regarding about losing your dearest ones. Family, friends, lovers. I don’t know since when but good stories about family always happen to make me (almost) cry.
No parents want to see their children leave the world before them. They want to see their children grow up, to attend their wedding, to hold their grandchildren, to be with them until their very last day.
Sometimes the children, including me, are being immature. We don’t understand their way to love us because we want freedom. We’re too young to understand that life is as simple as we think.
I know there are many children who also suffer out there because of her parents. I don’t know what in their minds but I want to believe that God let us have a family so we can treasure our lives, to cherish our lives.
Regret and apologies usually come later after the worst strike. That’s why I decided to do my best, to make my parent proud, to let them know that I was born to make them happy just like how they have raised me until this very second.
So they will know that I love them with all my heart.
I haven’t done much. Maybe I even haven’t done anything. I won’t say there is still tomorrow but, at least, I will not let myself to say that I don’t want to be with them, that I deserve a better life, that they’re not good enough.
Because they are the best. Because I’m proud to be their daughter. Because I’m a part of their lives.
And, I thank God for my life, for blessing me with this family.
