For me, year 2017, is marked by the tragic death of my favorite singer, a song writer and a poeter.
He, who wrote the songs with deep and meaningful lyrics.
He, whose song always lifted me up when I was down.
He, who knows how to pour his emotion into such a “beautiful” melody.
A strong man with the soft heart…
He thought so deep. He seemed to understand those feelings and able to transfer it out so well… And yet he ended up his life…
Well, life is really full of paradox.
Behind every smiling face, hides thousands of misery.
Behind the loud scream, tears buried.
Who can tell?
I remember one colleague told me that I’m a person with a strong survival mentality.
I never really thought about it before, but he may be right.
No matter how hard life goes, even when sickness come to tease, you won’t see me suffer… At least from the outside…
I realize there is one thing that I always wanted to defend.
And this is the thing that keep me alive.
PRIDE.
Hate being pity.
Hate to look weak.
Hate to be a burden.
It hurt my PRIDE.
Thus I won’t let my life end too easily.
I do know that death is in every corner. But we need to fight the best out of it.
And sadly even if we do stay alive, one day we’ll all disappear from someone else’s life.
Those old friends and relatives.
Persons we once know.
People who happenned to cross path then just walk away.
We just need to create the best memory out of them.
And Chester…
I do believe that each light matter, although the sky is full of a million stars…
I do care if someone’s time runs out although we just spend a short moment together.
Because every light matter…
And every life matter…
And I do care…
