Just got a call from dad saying grandma fell down yet again, after the last one several years ago which severely weakened her and significantly changed her lifestyle. With more years added to her old age, and coupled with a deteriorating body plagued with other illnesses, what would this fall do to her this time?

Question is will she live to see my wife and kids? Will she live to see me succeed in life? Will she be able to attend my wedding? Will she even see my girlfriend? I know not. I hope she'd at least be able see some of my successes in life. 3 years before I go back for good to find a girlfriend and to finally embark on my career. 3 critical years, which will determine if my dreams would take off or crash into pieces. Will she live to see these? Please God, let her at least see something about this grandson of hers, before you take her away from him.

Alright, things are probably not sufficiently severe to be labeled as fatal, unless she goes for the operation. But you never know how much being bed-ridden can do to the body. The lack of even the simplest form of exercise, is in itself, detrimental to anybody's health. That coupled with insufficient nutrients from food due to weakened chewing ability, even though she does take vitamins, is never a good combination for a healthy body.

Looks like I'm running out of time. I've got to run even faster. But 2 years is still the minimum I have to stay in order to achieve what I need.

Will blog about my vacation some time soon. Am real tired today, and this news doesn't help.

Grandma asked if I'd miss talking to her, and I couldn't lie and so I said no, because I talk to her 3 times a week. How would you miss a person when you talk to that person 3 times a week, other than your significant other? But I really do cherish each time I talk to her, and I better do that more before I can no longer do that again.

I shall pray for her health.

On another note, I think I better insist on placing some bath mats in my parents' toilet. Falling down is never a good thing especially when you become part of the silver wave. Once you make that first slip, your entire life changes. No good.

Inspiration Quotes
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
