The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Watched its dvd today. The story line is good, meaningful. It is the kind of, like "Big Fish" which i watched it in the cinema few years back. It was as touching as Forrest Gump.

Different people may interpret the message differently. The messages i got however, nobody could reverse the time, tomorrow is always unpredictable, and aging is a natural and BEAUTIFUL process that happens to all of us. It taught about birth and death. Indeed, it reminds me a friend of mine, who passed away at his aged 17. He was such a good boy, good future ahead... 6 Persons involved in car accident, crashed into the river; during chinese new year, chinese calendar: day of 14th. Three persons not survived that night.
Somehow, i realized that our live is too fragile, and it took me quite a long time to accept the truth. A friend asked me, do you ever think that your parents may leave you one day?
"Yes, i do." "But, i can't accept it, i wish to die first before them." *I afraid to lose them*
And he said that i was selfish. "You want to die first, scared of pain, heartache; but what happen to your parents..?" "They will be more suffering than you.."
I admit that I was playing around, taking so much of time looking for what i want in future; but i am seriously miss them a lot, even though i am not staying with them since i aged 18. Stayed alone all these years, and they still worry on me until today, i thought that i already proved that i am independent and capable to take care myself very well. I appreciate it deeply.

I'm at home now. Too bad they are not around.
Waiting them for supper then..... ciao. love. amanda
