If you ever had a close family member die...

Did you start thinking about your own time on earth a lot more? Every day since my dad passed in February, I'm thinking of A. How sad it is Bec it was so fast, and B. How much more time do I have?
Will I get cancer too? Will I get some other severe disease? Or get hit head on by a speeding car?
It makes me realize how little time we have and to maybe start LIVING more. But it also makes me so helpless, that we all leave here😢

Initially, I went through a phase where many stakeholders were tryna influence me ( and my sister). It was a state of confusion 'cos the change was sudden.

It was like coming face to face with the ultimate truth of life. I lost the family head a couple of years before I lost my Dad. I guess, my struggle was more to do with how am I going to fill in the big shoes. Anyone I turn up to seek advice in near family was manipulative, selfish, jealous or hurtful.

Sure, I had accepted that (1) I'm not here forever, (2) I'm gonna leave everything here (Not take with me), when my time comes....But, somehow, I was raised to lead and take charge and that was the immediate priority.
