Everglow

Living miles away from my parents has made me realize how important to utilize my time when I am with them. Simply, because people gets older and, of course, we do not know how much the time remains, either mine or theirs, to be spent together.

Being far has made me see the change on their physical appearance particularly the wrinkles on their face which are getting more and more every time I meet them. However, they are still the same. A talkative mom which absolutely descent "that skill" to me, and an over protective and over worry dad who really like to call me just only to ask my condition. lol (That's the way they love me anyway! xD)

It feels like yesterday when I was 4 and waiting my daddy to come home because he always brought me many snacks and beverages after he worked then simply said
that he got it from seminar if I asked how could he got it like always. After that, he would kiss me and played his mustache on my cheeks at the same time. Or the time when I cried every time I woke up and looked my mom was not beside me on the bed or even my mum would go to her office. Yeah, I told you one of the silly yet beautiful time of mine. lol.

How I am trying to say is how if we do not have many memories to be remembered because we lost our precious time together. Well, it consequently due to my decision to live separately or in individualistic word of mine as "live independently" even in case I still rely on them. Furthermore, even if we already create memories, but it would fade away.

Brains works to save memories that happened but only few that stands to be still well reminded. Parable like files that we keep in a storage, every day one file. After a year, you already have 365 files. Furthermore, when you want to see or use it again, you should find it first because there are already lots of files that you save and not all of them that you acquainted with. Maybe you do not save them because you think it's no longer useful for our live and perhaps unintentionally you throw it from your storage.

Age is decreasing our capability to recognize things. I do not want to have less of memory stocks of them in my mind. Same like the lyrics of one of Coldplay's song that I adore the most, "Oh the light that you left me will everglow", I want the light that they left me will everglow. All of them, not less! In my mind...
