Forever Changed

I came across this a long time ago. The exact words fail me but it goes something like this:

-

"I thought things like these only happens to someone else. Unfortunately, we are all someone else to someone else."

-

I've always known it's meaning but never truly appreciated its irony till yesterday.

-

One tragic incident.

-

Everything I have... gone.

-

What caused it?

What if...

Why?

-

All the questions and material possessions seem irrelevant when someone you love is placed in the equation.

-

Where is he? We heard him inside.

Did he get out? He ran back in.

-

Then...

-

Did you find him? We heard the bad news...

-

My world blurred. I lost both of them in a span of less than 6 months. I didn't know what to do. They meant so much to me. Why did it have to be this way?

-

Still, the world goes on around me. I have to be strong. If not for myself, for those around me.

-

Thank you for your concern, your understanding and most importantly, for your support. I may not show it but it means the world to me. Thank you for being there physically and spritually. You have no idea how much strength it has given me.

-

The world goes on and so must I.
