Cherishing the Memories: Harbor the Regrets
Cherish someone before it's too late because regret is a tragic thing, comfort them while they are crying, take care of them while they are sick, prolong your patience with them, and love them extra on their bad days, the things I haven't done to my mother while she was still alive, the remorse between her and I was every day living, that's why we don't bond that much, she explodes every time that I come next to her.

She scolded me too much that I had forsaken her, but I know that she loved me more than ever, her sacrifices, her love, and her care were priceless, the ones that I had taken for granted, she was a darling grace that everyone adores, me and her look-alike too much but not the attitude, she was a lover that I didn't love, her love that's beyond beautiful before I thought that she didn't love me, now I realise that she wasn't just showy of affection but she loved me.

Patience was a lost case for the both of us, we had no patience for each other, she's mad always and I hate her for that, but she took care of me and got me what I needed like food, a home and my medicine, the thought of losing her was beyond any daughters imagination, that day I cried harder and painfully, imagine I just lose my dad a few years ago and now her, that day I was breathless and my eyes were swollen due to my tears, that day I curse the heaven and earth.

Her laying in the coffin was so hard to see, especially when the funeral came I just didn't want to take her, simply remembering her was now a heartache for me that every time I looked in the mirror I cried because we just looked alike, guilt and frustration that's what I'm feeling right now because I didn't take care of her for the last remaining days when she was weak and sick, so cherish your loved ones now before it's too late and don't take them for granted.
