I frequently get freaked out when I think of how time is passing so fast now. Being so egocentric, I only imagine of myself aging progressively.
It just occurred to me today that my parents' age has already lasted over 5 decades; 2030 is closer than the year of my sister's wedding and my nephew who was born during pandemic is about to attend school; my brother only being one year and half older than me will soon graduate university.
Growing up and all this adulthood mean taking care of those people. Not only by means of kindness and respect, but also actually working hard to make their lives better. Everything you possibly can for the people who made sacrifices and gave you more even though they took less.
Looking back, I realized my family wasn't like so-called inspiration to urge me to do better things. But, they were real hero characters behind the scenes who put all the effort to make me dream, think, study, and see the world, eventually building who I am right now.
Grateful forever.
