MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS! :)Christmas eve and Christmas day had been wonderful. Its filled with lots of
LAUGHTERS and
LOVES. And yes, am back to work today. :)
My dad had been feeling really lousy with his badly swollen gum. This morning, I went to the clinic and dential to seek advise. Coincidence, my parents had a wedding dinner to attend and so my sister had to attend in his behalf. After they left for the banquet, Landis accompanied Dad in the shop while I bought dinner for him and companied him eat.
I watched him. He IS aging and I can't ignored the lines formed around his eyes and forehead. He IS lonely and IS starting to lose his momentum. He knew I had guests coming over tonight and urged me to go home. He assured me in his way that he would be fine. I wanted him to go home, but he planned to wait for my mum and sister.
I hear him sing... I hear his weariness and lonliness. My heart ACHE. He has always been my pillar. Thou people wanna bring him down and misunderstood him, he stayed strong. He is the power that moulded me to who I am today.
I always tell myself, "
I'm living with fighters (my dad & hubby), I must be strong to be worthy of their strength".
I drove home with teary eyes and aching heart. As I grew older, the more I wanna hold them (my loved ones) closer.
