I tend to daydream about life as an adventurous teenager who is
constantly searching for treasure, or that I'm in my favorite TV show as a guest
star, or that me and that crazed girl across the street are pirates
fighting in the Caribbean, or that I'm in school failing a math test... wait,
scratch that last one, 'cause it's a nightmare, Sometimes I'm some sort of mystical creature
running through the woods, flying in the breeze or swimming though the sea.
Other times when I'm just daydreaming trying to find my path to sleep, I just lay
in bed spacing out.
The other night I was reading a "Chicken Soup for the Soul" book and got to the
Death part . I'm EXTREMELY emotional so whenever someone dies -- I cried so much that
I couldn't even see the page anymore! I started reading it and I got to this
story called "Mom." It was about this guy losing his mom to cancer -- it was
very sad. I started thinking to myself, imagine if I lost my mom....
One morning, you wake up eat breakfast and run out the door. At school and in the
middle of class you're told to get all your stuff and come to the office.
When you got there, your aunt is sitting there in a state she tells you that your
mom has been in a car accident and has died. I know that some people out there
are actually thinking, "AWESOME!!" Well, guess what? You're going to have to stop going to the
mall every second day because no one can drive you. When you get home from
school, your little brother starts complaining that he's hungry. Your dad can't
get home until 8:00pm and you have to cook supper. What happens is that you
have to grow up in a matter of a day because your mom is dead!
I can hear it from those of you now: "Well, my mom works, so it doesn't make a difference to me!"
Oh yes it will, because when you need help with homework and your dad can't
understand who can you go to??? NO ONE!! Your parents are the ones who brought
you into this world! Respect them and live life the fullest with your parents,
because you never know what will happen in the future. Tomorrow they may not be
there for the comfort that you need.
