..death..

death.. death is inevitable.. you will eventually come to this point in your life. for my father, it came last tuesday 17 july 2007. he died at 10:15 pm. It is hard to miss someone who has been with you almost every time you needed him. my father is a good man, i am sad because of his death but a part of me is happy, because he is no longer in pain. i still remember how he would criticize the wrestlers of WWE. how he would always beat me at chess. how he would suddenly make jokes about anything he sees.

I'm gonna miss my father dearly. in fact, i am missing him right now. how i wish i had the time to tell him what i wanted to say to him. the secrets i wanted to tell him. everything that is happening to me in school and with my friends! but now, the time has come, and he must face his final curtain. the curtain on his marvelous life has just been closed and now, all of us is missing him.

just last night i told him that i love him and until now i feel that i didn't show him my love. i think that he feels that i love him. but i don't think i was right in what i felt. anyway, now that he is gone. i pray for him to be in a beautiful place and that nothing is hurting him. i hope and pray that we be reunited and be one whole family once again. many of my relatives new him as a jolly person, well, he is. in fact, before he died, he smiled and took his last breathe. he doesn't forget how to smile. he never did and never will he...

this blog entry is from my innermost thoughts about my fathers death...
