The best present received
Linked
Humans tend to realise who,especially family and what is most important to them when they are facing serious problem and even near to death. Its always the most precious lesson learnt when everything is not too late. I am happy for my mum too...her best present for the new year. It hurts to see her being upset when she told me her stories when she was young and how she came through those hardships and neglections from her father,my grandfather. He never treats her well and never seems to look at her as she is his daughter. She suffered...i can even imagined how she cried her eyes out when thoughts and memories came rushing into her mind especially during her early times of her marriage. I had always think that my grandparents are being bias,even till now.
I have no good memories of my grandparents since young but somehow i felt my tears gathering but i manage to keep it from rowing down my cheeks when i visited grandpa with my mum in hospital on new year day. Is it that i just pity him? Or because i saw how my mum cared for him despite how he treated her before? But i am sure grandpa came to realised that kinship is something that its not how much money can buy. He really must treasure what he have now in both kinship and health too. Anyway,i am glad that he is on the road of recovery when i received news that he is being transfer from ICU to normal ward. He will soon be well again.
Besides having ang baos,i too,realise something through these. Cherish everything around us...nothing should be taken as granted. It will be too late when we lose them and we will be leaving regrets which we will never make it up again.
Still...a Happy New Year afterall...
