If only I knew
Yeah, it has been a while since my last entry. After a long rest- I decided to blog again. I know, this is just for nothing- but I really love it because at the same time it reflects the other side of me.
Unexpected things can happen in our life, either it was bad or good one. Whatever it is, at the end it all goes away- and we have to accept that. In a blink of eye, everything can change and we have to be strong to face all that. Just keep going on because that’s life is all about; on how you keep pursuing the life. Well, I just want to share this. This one is called If only I knew…
If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming, you would know I do.
If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance to make everything right.
There will always be another day to say our "I love you's"
And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget,
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day...
That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone, what could be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear.
Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
Nothing is worse than the wonder, if only I had known!

But the fact is- we’ll never know. We keep on going without knowing what will happen in the future; it’s beyond our thoughts or expectations. Life is uncertain. What we can only do is just make sure that we do the right things so that you won’t regret at the end. Appreciate anyone that are with you cause they might... - and it really hurts when you lost them forever.
