Something comes...something goes...

Firstly, Happy new year to all...
Since new year 2009 has begun, something come and something go!
This year I have no new year resolution like other years in the past.
Lesson learnt that if I never accomplish any, I shouldn't have started any!
I bought something new, fix what I can, throw away what is
off-limit fixing!!

There was also something I didn't mean to lose but the nature said it's time.
The first day I came back home my sister told me that someone
who was "technically" my uncle was dead.
You might by now have doubt about the word in quotation mark.
It refers to the fact that we had the same blood but for some reason had never talked.

I thought that I would even smile on this kinda day but apparently I didn't.
I didn't even want to go to the funeral in the first place but somehow I made it.
since we were "technically" relative and this gesture would be considered
as a good manner. I wasn't angry, I just couldn't find the reason why I should.
I just found them when I was there.

The gesture wasn't for the one who passed away but for people who still alive.
To remind them and myself that life is too short to hate or to be hated by one another.
To give myself a chance to forgive and to be forgiven by people who were once considered to be enemies!

His wife looked at me first time in so many years. This time she really looked at me and talked to me. She might realize something as well.
Like I told you this new year, something come and something go...
Eventually we lost something and learnt something but wouldn't it be better if we would learn something while we still have it?

"Happy new year"
"Happy new you"
