The Real Gift
Experiencing loss is a part of life.
Some people lose their first love.
Some lose harmony in their relationship.
Some people lose hope.
Others lose patience.
While others lose their soul.
Some lose their certainties.
And some have nothing to lose.

Experiencing loss is a part of life.
But good things come too.
Expect the unexpected and embrace it.
Each first time is an adventure.
And who knows how far these adventures will lead you.
You find people to whom you entrust your heart as much as they entrust theirs to you. That trust is sometimes broken.
But it can always be restored.
Yes, sometimes the road can be winding.
You might even get lost on the way.
But, with the help from the right people, you'll always find your destination.
As we grow old,
We realise life doesn't give us all the gifts we hoped it would .
But you must not be scared and you must not be sad.

As I said in the beginning,
Experiencing loss is a part of life,
But it doesn't define it.
Because what really matters isn't whether you win or you lose,
It's the ability to accept changes in ourselves.
It's accepting that even if life doesn't give us gifts we were hoping for,
The real gift is life itself.
