Love Dear Ones Now Or Regret Later

When our dear ones passed away, so many sighs of regrets can be heard. While sobbing others say, I should have given her what she wanted, I should have been kind to him or I should have been home most of the time to be with her and so many regrets for not doing what was supposed to be done. I heard my cousin saying, if my parents are still living, they should have experience now the beautiful life we're having. While my mom was already bedridden my brothers we're all busy with their families, I told them to spend more time with my mom first as she'll be having shorter time to stay compared with their families. When my mom passed away they come together with their families and stayed the whole night and the nights after. I feel sad, my mom can no longer appreciate the love they're showing. We must let our dear ones, young or old feel our love today as when their right time comes, our tears of regrets can't bring them back to life.

Yes i feel the same way you do. I love my mom very much but as a teenager, we always argue with each other but deep inside my heart, i love her the most. I know she can feel it because she will hug me everytime i look at her in the eyes while arguing. It's a sad and happy things at the same time. What i was talking about was not that big arguement but arguement like rebellious and etc. So take care of the one who took care of you in your life.

Yes RizeSeeker, though we argue with them, still they're love for us surfaced. No matter what we say, whether it may hurts them a little, still they understand. That's why once they're gone, will be missing those understanding and loving they used to do with us. Thanks for the response. God bless...

This is one of the reasons I will not hold a grudge if it is possible as you just never know what is round the Corner to be honest I made up with my Grandmother and I was so glad that I did as 4 months later she was gone, the reason we fell out, today proves she was right but at the time I did not listen to her but there was no "if only" because we had sorted our differences out Hugs to you

Nice move gabs, you made your grandmom happy and for sure she appreciated much what you did. Right gabs sorting out differences with our dear ones earlier make us feel blessed and at ease and no feeling of guilt, whatever may happen. Thanks gabs for the response, take care...

Hi bing, I agree with you, we should show our love now. I know families who rarely visited there parents while they were living but always make sure that they put flowers on their graves after they are gone. This is not the way I believe things should be doe. Show our love now. Blessings.

Too late Pose, though at least they make an effort on remembering them through these flowers and a nice gesture as well but much better if they feel the love when they're still living. Thanks Pose for the response. Continuous blessings. Happy Halloween...

Yes we must never put off expressing our love for others as tomorrow is truly never promised and you stated it will be too late later as the resentment can be difficult to deal with after. I always kid and tell people to please buy my flowers now that I am alive as later I will not be able to enjoy them.

If it was possible that our tear can bring them back to life then every body choose the tear to back all the dear people to their life. But it is not possible. We all mis our dearest and nearest one some time. I also mis my grandmother who has passed away in year 2005.
