Hello friends, how are you? Today my cast and I have something special for you. Sometimes life teaches us something, but by then everything has already slipped from our grasp. We only appreciate these things when they're no longer with us.
Something similar happened to me too. I always thought I had plenty of time, that people would always be there for me, and that I'd never bring out the things I'd been bottling up. But one moment it's gone, and sometimes things just don't happen.
Friends, in life I was so busy that I was always focused on my features, stressed about money, and chasing my own flesh. I thought emotional weeks were for people who spend their days with family—they cherish those small, imported joys and celebrate them. All of that… In my opinion, it was pointless at the time.
My valley-dwelling elders used to tell me that in life you don't get work or money. They'd say, “Son, time flies and then you're left only with regret.” I'd smile, dismissing their words as old-fashioned thinking, because I felt they were speaking out of pure emotion.
I still remember the time when they went into the room—they looked very weak. At first, I really wasn't expecting anyone in the morning. They saw me with every smiling face and simply said, “The work is done.” That one sentence from their father broke me inside, and I kept thinking how many times they hadn't given me even a little time. How many times did Mom say, “Just do it with your own hands,” and I was always chasing work, work, work. Sitting in the hospital, I realized for the first time what life is really about. Money is necessary, success is a good thing, but there's no greater power than the time you spend with your family. I realized that. I realized that I was so busy building my future that I forgot to live in the present. I kept chasing both of them, which were actually the most beautiful parts of life: my mother's voice and wise advice, my friends' companionship—I gave it all up to make money. Now, whenever I'm alone, so many women come to mind. I think if I had taken a little time, if I had spent time with my family, I wish I wouldn't even have the chance to share these things with you. Every person's life inevitably reaches a day when they understand it all. Some people get it right on time; others, like me, take far too long to understand. This is the pain that doesn't make a sound but destroys a person from within.
