Although it's been on my mind that maybe I need to fulfill their wishes before they pass, the least I could do, then I know, I just can't risk it, it's till death do us apart once we pen our names on the line. #NoKidding
Once, my uncle told my uncle to cut down on high cholesterol and salty food because of her HBP, she merely replied in hokkien,"I'm only waiting for death, can't I eat what I want".
That was just too much for me ...
It's kinda true, she wakes up, go for a stroll, watch tv which she barely understands, she can't read both mandarin and english, the kids barely visit her, some times no one visits over the weekend...
So can't she just enjoy what's remaining of her life, it's her choice right?
There's basically nothing much I'd ask from my wife except that she has to let me go first.
Assuming I've found the most perfect woman in the world for me, how am I or will I or can I live my life without her?
Growing old, is not a biggie, but waiting to die is. At my age, I'm attending weddings, baby shower, at my grandparents', they are attending wakes, it's really depressing and at the same time really scary. You close your eyes and wonder if you wake up tomorrow, you wake up tomorrow wondering if you'd see anyone before you go and the cycle repeats.
Of course, different people have different set of lives, everyone chose to do things differently.
This article was "inspired" by 2 funerals, back to back around my block, my grandparents' words, their age but from last Friday, I've vow to end every article without negative thoughts or feelings, life's too short so enjoy every single moment....
Rock on bitches !!! ;)
