but that wasn't me..

I have this special friend
named
john
He was very sweet and caring. He always
checked on me and treated me a 'special'
person.
Suddenly I realized, I was falling for him.
On
March
14, he proposed to me and we became a
couple.
He remained sweet and loving to me.
Every
14th
of the month he would say, "Cheska, I
have
to tell
you something..." but will not continue it
and
say it
was nothing. I became curious, was he
about to
break up with me? But I continued to trust
him. our
graduation is coming -- on March 14, 4
years
later.
I knew that after this night, my family and
I
would
be leaving for the states. We knew this
time
would
come, and I never expected it to hurt so
much. But
I have to go and leave him. We promised
to
stay
in
touch and never forget each other. he
gave
me a
box of chocolates, flowers, pictures of us
together
and a locket. and so, I left with memories
of
John
in my heart. We always e- mailed each
other
and
communicated. I told him how I loved life
here, I
partied every Friday with my friends, went
shopping...I was living the life I always
wished I
had. But I was never able to read John's
last
letter
because of my hectic schedule. I
promised
myself
to read it when I found the time. Then
suddenly, it
stopped (his letters and e-mails). I was
wondering
why he isn't writing to me anymore. But I
understand maybe he has work to do. He
didn't
even greet me on March 14. After several
months
still without communication, I found time
to
read
his last letter and it was the most shocking
moment in my life -- Cheska, This is my
last
letter
to you. remember when I was supposed to
tell you
something important but was never able
to
do so?
I wanted to tell you that my "moment" (it
means
death) is March 14, exactly 1 year later
after
you
left and 5 years after I proposed to you.
That
was
what the doctor said. I have this sickness, I
forgot
what it was called. All I know is that I'm
going
to
die soon. I'm not telling you to come back
after
reading this letter, I just wanted to let you
know
that
I will always love you and that forever
you will
be in
my heart. I love you Cheska. Thank you
for
changing me. Thank you for everything.
Goodbye
I'm gonna miss you Lots of love, John I
wanted to
cry and shout his name. March 14 was 3
months
ago! He died 3 months ago! And I never
knew
because I was so busy enjoying my life
here
when
someone I loved so much was suffering
from an
unidentified sickness. Up to this day I still
feel
guilty, I could have been right beside
John
when
he was ill, but I was here partying and
eating
my
heart out. I was so guilty. He died. John
died.
Until
his last breath he wanted to be with me.
But I
wasn't there. I went back to the
Philippines
and
visited his grave. In it was written, "To
John,
who
loved Cheska so much, may he forever
rest
in
peace" And he died on March 14. March
14,
when
this day comes, I cry, laugh, think and feel
guilty,
this day I feel mixed emotions. I hate
myself.
Why
do I have to read his last letter when it
was
too
late? Why do I have to leave anyway?
These
questions keep going on my mind. But I
can
do
nothing now. John is up there. I guess he
wanted
me to be happy. I still love John. And I
miss
him
so
much....He handed her 12 roses, 11 real
and
1
fake and said, "I'll love you till the last
one
dies."

The Salty Coffee
He met her at a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him.
At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, and she thought to herself, "Please, let me go home..."
Suddenly he asked the waiter, "Would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee." Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously, "Why you have this hobby?" He replied, "When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there." While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home... Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family.
That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy life... And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked it.
After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said, "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life's lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything... Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth, I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste... But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again."
Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, "What's the taste of salty coffee?" She replied, "It's sweet."
Pass this to everyone because love is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand, not to hear but to listen, not to let go but HOLD ON!!!!

Okay dude! u made me cry!!!
wwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa............ ............
Back when the telegraph was the was the fastest method of long distance communication, a young man applied for a job as a Morse Code operator.
Answering an ad in the newspaper, he went to the office address that was listed. When he arrived, he entered a large, busy office filled with noise and clatter, including the sound of the telegraph in the background. A sign on the receptionist's counter instructed job applicants to fill out a form and wait until they were summoned to enter the inner office.
The young man filled out his form and sat down with the seven other applicants in the waiting area. After a few minutes, the young man stood up, crossed the room to the door of the inner office, and walked right in. Naturally the other applicants perked up, wondering what was going on. They muttered among themselves that they hadn't heard any summons yet. They assumed that the young man who went into the office made a mistake and would be disqualified.
Within a few minutes, however, the employer escorted the young man out of the office and said to the other applicants, "Gentlemen, thank you very much for coming, but the job has just been filled." The other applicants began grumbling to each other, and one spoke up saying, "Wait a minute, I don't understand. He was the last to come in, and we never even got a chance to be interviewed. Yet he got the job. That's not fair!"
The employer said, "I'm sorry, but all the time you've been sitting here, the telegraph has been ticking out the following message in Morse Code: 'If you understand this message, then come right in. The job is yours.' None of you heard it or understood it. This young man did. The job is his."
"I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live." John 5:24-25
