Healing Grief Quotes Novels & Stories

Hindi ko man naramdaman ang ganitong pagmamahal sa kinagisnan kong magulang at sa mga taong mahal ko, at least bawing-bawi naman sa anak. “Always remember this Nica…” I look intently to her eyes and gently caress her cheek. “You are so especial, you are loved, so whenever you feel hurt or whenever you feel like everyone doesn’t know your existence… don’t cry. You don’t have to cry and you don’t have reason to feel bad… always choose to be happy.” “Yes mom, as long as your here-“ “Even if I’m not here, or even if I’m dead… always look for the bright side. I may not stay by your side everyday, I promise to stay in your heart forever.”

Ramdam niya ang pagmamahal nito sa kanya. "Ang tagal kong naghanap ng sagot,ang tagal na panahon akong nagtatanong kung paano mawawala ang sakit. Kung paano maghihilom ang sugat ng nakaraan. Ngayon ko lang naisip at ngayon ko lang napatunayan, na kailangan lang tanggapin kung ano ang tapos na, at tanggapin kung ano ang nakalaan pa. Matutong magpatawad at humingi ng tawad. Sumubok muli at bumangon kung sakali mang maramdaman ulit ang sakit. At higit sa lahat, mahibg tapat sa sariling nararamdaman. Maging matapang na mahakin ang taong tinitibok ng puso."

The wind whistled a fresh ambiance as the dappled sun shone through the trees, creating mysterious shadows. I took a deep breath and beamed softly. It's a good day to be back home.

Someone out there will appreciate and cherish you for who you are. Don't mourn for someone who's okay with losing you." Matagal akong hindi nakapagsalita. Nakuyuko lang ako pero patuloy na nag-uunahan ang mga luha sa aking pisngi.
