sometimes... i wonder if the weather can read our moods or signal us towards a bad day. it was quite beautiful throughout the whole week. however, today... it was gloomy. the clouds were hovering over the sun from shining through. eventually, i found out that a friend of mine lost their father. it was shocking news to me, since i knew him. i came through for the family to see if they're okay. it was really heartbreaking to see such a melancholy setting. i was fine for awhile, then later on everything just set in & i broke into tears. not only for him, but for everyone.
afterwards, i thought about everyone who i love, who i care about. how will my life be if they were to disappear just before a blink of an eye. life is full of surprises. & we have to live with the realization that every surprise isn't going to turn out to be good ones, or what we wanted it to be. therefore, we must live everyday happily without any regrets & if there are, it's never to late to fix them. & if everything seems like its too late for repair, don't ever give up. there's a lesson learned to every mistake that's made. we always have to give ourselves the opportunity to find another route to start anew,; keeping our heads up in hopes of not repeating the same error. most importantly, we must treasure everyone who are currently in our lives. especially the ones who are capable of giving us a smile when it's most needed. those are the ones to keep & cherish cos we never know when we are going to see them again even if their visibility is frequent. also, to not let any good things go--don't take them for granted once we receive them. really... what are the chances of us finding it again? you really don't know what it's got til its gone. & don't just wait for it to slip away; take risks for those chances of a lifetime.
hidalgo family. my deepest apologies for the lost. it's going to be a tough road. god takes only the best & eduardo was one of them. he was a great supporting husband & a wonderful father. although he is gone physically, he will forever remain in our hearts & be with us spiritually. may he rest in peace within the hands of god. best wishes to the remaining family in hopes that they will be safe & living life happily and successfully with little obstacles in the future.
