A Letter from "Mom and Dad"...

A Letter from "Mom and Dad"...

My child,

When I get old, I hope you understand... 'n have patience with me
In case I break the plate, or spill soup on the table because I’m losing my eyesight,
I hope you don’t yell at me.
Older people are sensitive, always having self pity when you yell.
When my hearing gets worse 'n I can’t
hear what you’re saying, I hope you
don’t call me ‘Deaf!’
Please repeat what you said or write it
down.

I’m sorry, my child.
I’m getting older.
When my knees get weaker, I hope you have the patience to help me get up.
Like how I used to help you while you
were little, learning how to walk. Please bear with me, when I keep
repeating myself like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.

Please don’t make fun of me, or get sick of listening to me.
Do you remember when you were little 'n you wanted a ballon?
You repeated yourself over 'n over until you get what you wanted.
Please also pardon my smell. I smell like an old person.
Please don’t force me to shower.
My body is weak.
Old people get sick easily when they’re
cold. I hope I don’t gross you out.
Do you remember when you were little? I
used to chase you around because you
didn’t want to shower.
I hope you can be patient with me when
I’m always cranky. It’s all part of getting
old. You’ll understand when you’re older.
'n if you have spare time, I hope we can
talk even for a few minutes.
I’m always all by myself all the time, 'n
have no one to talk to.
I know you’re busy with work. Even if you’re not interested in my
stories, please have time for me. Do you remember when you were little? I
used to listen to your stories about your
teddy bear.

When the time comes, 'n I get ill 'n
bedridden, I hope you have the patience
to take care of me. I’m sorry if I accidentally wet the bed or
make a mess.
I hope you have the patience to take
care of me during the last few moments
of my life.
I’m not going to last much longer, anyway.

When the time of my death comes, I
hope you hold my hand 'n give me
strength to face death. 'n don’t worry..
When I finally meet our creator, I will
whisper in his ear to bless you. Because
you loved your Mom 'n Dad.

Why are some people always single?

My older sister has never been in a relationship. She is the prettiest woman I know, beautiful without putting too much effort and naturally elegant and graceful However she is dedicating her life to her academic studies and her dream to become a great heart-surgeon just like my dad. Althought she is very easy-going, a party person whenever she needs a break and also a cheerleader she never met someone at her level. I am genuinely happy she didn't waste her time on wrong people and I am pretty sure she’ll find her true soulmate one day. EDIT: Sone of you didn't understand what I meant by “at her level” and I wasn't good at explaining it either since I am not a native speaker. What I meant is that where I live young generation is very superficial (I may include myself in it) and it's not much interested on romance and education. So by “at her level” I meant someone who treats her the way she should be treated, that's it. She is 22 and she doesn't want to be singl...

The girl in the car

So this happens 9 or 10 years ago, but I will never forget it at the time I was 11 or 12 years old girl. I was a competitive softball girl my team was nationally ranked so we traveled all over the united states to play the result in long car rides some through nights. One night in particular it was about midnight and we were on our way to a tournament who knows where I had asleep in the car when we stopped at a gas station for a bathroom break my teammate and I decided to stay in the car while our moms went inside because we need to go a few moments after our mom's had left and locked us in a car. I noticed another car in the parking lot it was a few spaces over and was the only other car at the station at the time in this car was a middle aged man and a little girl who must have been between 6 or 8 years old I assume he was a father because she looks strikingly similar to him I met eyes with the daughter and she smiled at me I smiled back and wave because she was adora...
