"Sometimes, you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory" – Theodor Seuss Geisel
This is a quote I had just learned the meaning of. If only I had knew much earlier, I would have made more moments with you.
Death is a cruel thing to the living, we never know when it'll happen, where it'll happen.
My father wasn't the best, or so I thought...it was when he was gone had I appreciated everything he did for me.
When he drives us to school and back home, when he cooks for us, when he asks me where I'm going...only had I realized that he did care... especially the times when he ran and carried me into his arms when I lost consciousness.
I never thought that that day was my last ride home with him, my last movie with him, my last laugh with him, my last photo with him, my last goodbye, the last time I'll ever see and be with him in the same room, let alone house. But what I regret not having a last with him, is saying my last 'I love you'... I would have loved a last hug...even a last kiss in the cheeks...if I had only known...
I thought we would have our first dance when I turn 18... I thought he would be there when I graduate or get married, who will walk me down the aisle?
I though he would last longer here on Earth, I never thought that that day would come. We will really never know what we had until we lost it...
A piece of advise, while you still have your father, your mother, or anyone really, show how much you love them, tell them 'I love you' because tomorrow is uncertain and it may be your last.
