This photo was taken in 2014, a few months before I moved to Shanghai and left my dog with my parents. My Dad never wanted a pet but he caved in and soon enough, they were in separable. The thing is, we can’t wait for loving feelings to surge up inside us. We need to work on becoming loving, just as how we work on becoming fit, learned, responsible and/or better in anything. And the journey begins when we take the brave step of admitting that we don’t have clue how to love and to think it was something we needed to make an effort to learn. Learning is growth. Unfortunately, everyone who love you and whom you love won’t be able to grow with you forever. It is unfair. Life is unfair. It has been hard to live a life away from your family, travel the world, when the hardest battle is fought at home. My Dad is terminally ill and has little time left. My heart sank knowing the end of the line is near. It’s hard to find the space within to hold an eternity that seems so finite. Time indeed undoes the mightiest of creatures.
