Things Change
8 years ago
I normally don't post stuff like this to the public, but I'm at a complete loss. I have friends who help me out, both in real life as well as online, but still, nothing will ever make it "easier". I lost my dad 10 years ago, January 9th, 2007. Now, a week or so ago, I found out that my mom is dying as well. There is no cure for what she has. I know that she isn't exactly young, but knowing a rough estimate of how long she has to live, tears a person apart.
Everything that I've known so far, for who I am or what I thought I was, is starting to become distorted and a mere image of my former self. It's hard trying to get myself out of bed to do my daily routines and go to work. Life in general, is harder than it was a few years ago. Losing both of my parents, at the age that I am, is probably one of the hardest things I think I'll have to deal with in this life.. Especially since after my father's passing, I got closer with my mother.
I honestly don't know where I'm going with this journal, I'm sure no one will read this nor give a shit on here. But to those who do read this, don't take anything for granted. Don't take your parents, close friends, or loved ones for granted. When you think that they will be around for a long time, they could easily be snatched from your life in a heartbeat. Or on a decline in their health. I always thought my mother would be around for a lot longer, since I always saw her as a strong, independent woman. But, over a week ago, I found out that I was wrong.
Cherish all the little things, because tomorrow they could be gone.
