She is leaving...heading to Canada for at least 5 years... Eventually, I'm the only who is left behind...because Jo is in the US... My best friends...either in the US or in Australia...or flying all around the world... I'm telling myself..."Hey, your mom and dad need you!" Yes, I know they need me and I know one day if I'm the one who is leaving... Saying goodbye would totally kill me... This is an undescribable conflict...between my desire of flying there and my sadness of saying goodbye... I totally can tell how sad mom is about this...she didn't say anything...but I can tell... What is she going to do if I'm leaving as well? The other day I asked her "Mom, since they are all in the US and Canada, maybe you should stop by and visit them once in awhile." Then she answered with a concerning voice... "Not like I don't want to. Just after you all get married, you will have your own families and lives, even you want to invite me to there, but it's not going to be only you anymore but also your husbands." Life is changing...we are changing...our parents is changing...the fact is that their children, one day, will leave them and move on... We always think family will always be family, will always be together...but we are wrong... They may leave... So why not grab your chance to really love them and treasure them? Not until the day you realize everything is too late... Guess that is why Jesus said in the Bible... "Faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." I didn't realize and experience this when either Winnie left for UK the first time or Jo left for US... But when it turned to both of them are not going to be here... The reality shocked me... Love them, did I do it? Love your family... Did you do it...or you're not doing it still... |
