Have U reallie TREASURE your loved ones?

So have you? Maybe you have, but forgotten at times...Forgottened to treasure their presence in your life..Forgottened that you have a wonderful life with him or her around...Forgottened if you have "loved" him or her after being together for days/weeks/months/years...

I was being reminded only after watching World Trade Centre movie, that I seemed to have "forgottened" that I have married this wonderful man as my husband (and going to have our customary wedding in less than a month), that I have "forgottened" to treasure him as the man I love, and say how much I love him verbally. We often pass words of love through sms, emails, thou we are facing each other day in day out. How ridiculous! Both of us are the closest items in this world, yet the words of love are so far left behind by us! Ha! I gave him a real big hug after the show, and whispered to him that I love him...No reaction from him leh! haha...

The show touches me...deeply...After terrible being couped beneath heaps of heavy fallen debris and feeling lost and hopeless as time ticks....But life is yet so wonderful when your mind flashes your dear ones, your kids, your family...They keep you alive, they keep you positive, they give you the strength to carry on...

Of cuz the friends' support is also very important in life...Without the support of each other, the 2 cops in the show may have died even earlier...Without the talking and encouraging for each other, they may have fallen asleep...They reminded each other that they are still alive for each other at that moment of crisis, in the midst of darkness and thirst.

I cried...during the show, and the day before...

My partner at work is leaving me soon...I felt that I lost a very important support in part of my life...Life at work is not easy..but we supported each other throughout the 6-7 months.. I felt lost and unsupported...I felt scared of the tremendous work load and uncertainties I would be facing...But I can't possibly stop her right? She is making this choice for herself, for her family, for her 3 young kids...She needs a more regular working hour job. I am "forced" to accept the changes once again...I just had another partner leaving few months ago (who I don't feel I wan to mention anymore about her)

But then...life is still full of support and kindness... My management asked me into the room, talked to me, made me feel I am being appreciated and treasured in the company, given the work attitude that I am giving. They know how I feel. They want to let me know that "Hey! U r not alone! U still have us! We have gotten someone in to help ease the situation." They know that it won't be easy for me, especially I am only 6-7 months old in this company without any relevant experience/ financial background. But they are willing to help me... thank god! I felt so much relieved and comforted... At least I know I won't be "forced" to leave the company cuz I felt closer to them, and that I wan to continue to learn and grow there....I still treasure the times we had..I still treasure every little things she has taught me, and every moments we once shared...

I pray hard...thou I don't have a religion...I pray that things can be resolved and be peaceful soon...

I pray for the survivors and victims of 911..I am sorry that I din realise the situation was so bad at that time..I was still "enjoying" myself in my own comfort zone, within this safe country of mine...I feel sorry for my ignorance n lack of concern at that time..until after I have watched the show...

  1. Hmmm, true that many a times, when crisis doesn't hit us that directly, we are always taking things for granted. But our Candice is always so introspective! U are very lucky to have such close relationships with your colleagues! Happy for you!
