tragedy strikes in 3’s
1. A BROKEN HEART
the most hurtful thing. the one i loved with all my heart and soul, the one i trusted with my life, hurt me more than i could ever imagine. the physical pain subsided quickly, but the emotional damage still lingers, and will for a long time. the worst part is that he doesnt even remember. how could someone hurt me so badly and claim to not remember. is that his pathetic way of trying to weasel out of apologizing?
2. LOSS OF A LOVED ONE
when you think of death, you have an automatic association of death with old age. so when someone of your own age dies- its indescribably shocking. death comes out of nowhere. with no notice or warning. it claimed the life of a young friend. and i will always feel regret, because i feel like i never got to say good-bye.
3. ILLNESS
jesus. just when i felt life couldn’t dump any more sadness on my shoulders- i’m tanked with illness. the kind that’s life threatening. luckily, we live in an age where we have surgery to take care of such things. but cutting pieces of my body out of me still doesn’t guarantee the relief from cancer. statistically, it will come back. cancer will recur. requiring more surgery and more medications to attempt at living a ‘normal’ life.
== I REFUSE TO LOSE HOPE, THOUGH ==
i intend to live the life god has granted me. i will strive to achieve all the amazing things god expects of me. i am meant to travel. i am meant to aid. i am meant to inspire life back into those who have lost hope. for if i am able to overcome these obstacles, then it is my duty to humanity to help them overcome their obstacles as well. life has too much to offer to lose hope. they say that tragedy strikes in 3’s. well i have reached the end of my series of tragedies. which means life is all down hill from here =]
