Thank you for visiting...I miss you too.

This story happened when my mom just went out and I was all alone at home. Mind you, it was during the day, hence it was still bright outside, so staying alone at home is not a scary thing at all. I was sitting at the table, in front of my laptop while watching a movie when suddenly…

I smelled something really…fragrant! I got shivers up my spine. The smell was so strong!

“Oh no no. Not now, please,” that was all on my mind. Don’t tell me you won’t feel scared if you’re all alone and you started smelling something, even if the smell is really nice! The fact that my mom just went out means that she won’t be back home soon. I wanted her home so badly! I don’t want to deal with whatever or wherever the smell was coming from. Not alone!

I gained some courage and got up from my seat. I went all around the house to check where the smell was coming from. I finally went to the living room and....

There was where the smell was coming from! It was somewhere behind the couch on the living room. However, instead of freaking out like I was a few minutes ago, I was calm.

Why was I calm? I remembered my mom told me that when you smell something fragrant, it means someone you love that has passed away is visiting you. 

I knew it was you Abah. 

Thank you for visiting...I miss you too 💕

Humans

Only “I” can be moody. If others are moody, they are annoying.

Only “I” can be sad and feeling down. If others are sad and feeling down, they are seeking for attention.

Only “I” can make harsh jokes. If others are making harsh jokes, they are rude.

There are always reasonable reasons behind “my” actions and emotions but if others do or feel what “I” did and felt, they are being unreasonable.

Why is it only okay when “I” do and feel it?

Humans - what a selfish being we all are.
