During times like this, Lent and other holidays, remembering our dear departed loved ones intensifies. If you are the kind of family who has annual traditions, it is even worse. That’s why I tell my younger cousins to spend time with their parents, their families. Who knows when one goes, right? Nobody. So we better spend as much time as possible with them.

Cancer is one of the top causes of death among people nowadays. It seems nobody is immune to it. Young and old, rich and poor. I heard a neighbor talking about mesothelioma life expectancy the other day. He knows a lot about it because the son of his boss has mesothelioma. It is really sad because the kid is still young.

Life is like that. You don’t know what it will deal you. But I would like to believe that as long as you have your family with you, you can overcome the challenges that will come your way.
