Life and love

A mysterious person told me that I am going to outlive my future husband. That is when I need to take care of our children alone. It seems scary to imagine someone you love and depend on cannot be there with you forever.

He also told me that he has seen heaven and it is a very beautiful place. There are mountains and lake. Birds chirping happily. The people who live there never feel hungry. Neither they know what is sadness or anger or any other negative feelings. They dive into the water and can breathe without any help. And when it is time for you to go to heaven, your loved one will be there waiting for you. You may also wait for your love one there and time does not matter in heaven. So, it does not matter how long you wait.

Do you believe in heaven? Do you believe in knowing when you will die or how long you can live? Do you believe someone can know your future better than you? Fortune-telling?

Do you believe there maybe times you are not supposed to live, but somehow you do because someone give you the gifts to continue on? That you are living a life that has been given to you, each day you live, each breath you take?

If you know your life is a gift to you from someone, will you live to your fullest everyday? Will you not waste it and immerse in sadness and negativity?


I believe everything is possible.

And, I believe in this beautiful quote:

The afterglow of a good and long relationship is like the light of a star that keeps pulsing long after the star itself has been extinguished. It may not make your wishes come true. But it can light your way.



Love and cherish your husband/wife, your children, your family. And help those who deserve your help. Heaven is beautiful, so is life.
