recently i have lost a cousin, my kuya's best friend, and someone we have related to as a brother. it was cold-blooded murder and we dont know the results of the investigation yet. we were supposed to meet the day he was killed. we were chatting 2 hours before he got killed. i was bugging him thru text an hour before he got killed. and 5 hours later, i was informed he got killed.
deaths like these make me think that life is short, life is unfair. but then again, who am i to question? it makes me think of my own life and that i have to make the most out of it.
the experience in itself is a roller coaster of emotions--- pain so deep it makes me so hard to breathe, to sleep and to focus on work. it's a pain and comfort at the same time to reminisce the memories, the fun we shared, the petty quarrels. all the more, it's a mystery. it would have been better if he died because of a prolonged sickness or an accident but murders is just plain----- unfair.

I lost my mother 6 years ago. It wasn't sudden. It was a slow and painful death. My mother was sick of myelofibrosis and it was on her last year that she got really sick. Lisud maminaw from someone you care for wishing for death as sort of relief from the pain and discomfort she feels. I really miss my mother. She was the glue that held our family together and when she died our family just fell apart. I regretted the times I failed to tell and show how much I love her. Take true care of the persons you love while they are still here and while they can still feel it.

thanks thisbe.ara!!!

I'd like to add that I realized that there is only one thing sure in this life and that is that we will all die. We don't know when and we don't know how thats why we should be prepared spiritually everytime.

tell us about your experiences-> how to deal, realizations, stories, etc.
it might help someone who's experiencing the same thing.

My brother-in-law died two years ago. It was on a Sunday, we were all together, nag dinner mi sa haws sa akong in laws, siya pa ang nagluto tanan, though it was just hamburgers and hotdogs. What's so eerie was that we talked about death, God and heaven...then, at 10pm, nananghid siya nga molakaw with his best friend kay magduwa sila ug tennis. One hour after that, the police came to my in laws' house and told us he's been in a car accident. He was driving home gikan nag tennis, then a mile from the house, naaksidente siya. He was not wearing a seatbelt so he was thrown out of the car and landed several feet away on impact. When we got to the accident site, we saw him being carried into the ambulance. We kept asking the paramedics kung ok siya, kung buhi ba or patay, but they wouldn't say anything. I got so depressed sa iyang pagkamatay, he was so young (25 yrs old), so full of life...

my grandfather died 3 years ago... sakit gyud... murag mo flashed back imong memories about him... like naka sala ka nya, mo tubag-tubag nya, basta mga negative. On the other hand the positive side naay sad kahibaw-an gikan nya.

wala koy ikasulti about him... i miss him.
