short story
this afternoon, I attended a funeral.
At church, the env't was light. No heavy emotions felt until, I heard the children cried "Si Papa".
Full of feelings covered the church which brought me to reflect, when your father is gone, it is just like everything falls down into pieces. like a kingdom built for years shattered for a moment. your strong foundation can't stand anymore. You've lost your strength, yet somehow it teaches you to be you. to be strong, to stand for yourself, and fight the world with yourself. because the one that standing there for you is not there anymore. at first, it will be hard. yes it is. really. but believe me, you'll overcome! someday, one day, you'll never notice. Just keep going! a step at a time. just like me, you got this!
