“Don’t make a permanent decision for your temporary emotion.” Sometimes, you overact in innocent situations without realizing what you’re hurting someone. It’s when things settle, as you finally understand the mess your have created and the miserable feeling inside of you. When it comes to my family, there are always something that is disagreed upon which leads to arguments and eventually fights. In the end, there the ones who’s there for you at your prime, as well as your low point. Recently, towards the end of my spring semester, I had loss someone very special to me. This person is always the first to leave my house, yet the last to finally come home, after working so hard but still showing so much love to us. This person would always bother me trying to wake up every Sunday to go to church. On May 5th, 2016, around 4pm, I was beside his bed in the hospital trying to wake him up. I don’t know why, but all I could think throughout that night was all the foolish things I have said or done that hurt him throughout my life. I know this person has already forgiven me, but sometimes I just want to go back to these moments and undo my regretful actions. I definitely have learned a lot throughout the couple of months. One of the more important ones is to keep your chin up and maintain a positive state of mind. ”

Of course, I think it’s great giving people a voice and this was really heartfelt. This shows how pictures and stories, although short, can have a big impact.
