Everything is dust in the wind.
My beloved grandmom died when I was 18.
Here is my mother"s old photograph when she was about 20 not married ,she was hugging a lamb ,her smiling face was so pure and pretty.
She was a country girl.
Now her hair is gray, her thick wrinkles on her face give me heartache.
She is gonna die like my gandma did.
My eyes are wet now.
Surely I feel everything is dust in the wind.
See the maginificent but wounded pyramaids in Egypt.
They are going to perish also as dusts in desert.
Its only matter of time,
Ironically ,I feel free cuz nothing s gonna last forever.
But Why? Why we are here living these fragile and temporary lives?
and why I have to feel deep sadness over my mom"s old photograph?

That's why it's important to cherish the here and now. Celebrate the fact that those you love share irreplaceable pieces of their lives with you: It's the greatest gift you can ever recieve. Focus on enjoying life. While your sorrow shows that you "get it," and understand how fragile life is, to dwell on the inevitable destroys the time you have right now.
You're right: Nothing lasts forever. But keep in mind that no one else will ever live your life. So enjoy the time you have, and fill it full of good memories.

It would be just that and awful sad indeed, if it weren't for the fact that this is only a virtual reality of the life that awaits us after Armageddon, where all tears, pain, sorrow and even death will be done away with once and for all and where even all of your ancestors will be resurrected in the new earth God will have restored to its original conditions, as promised by Him, who cannot lie... who says that your mom will be just like in that photo, only better, with skin smoother than that of a new-born... and that all who go through what is coming, will simply wake up feeling better, healthier and younger every day until the earth is filled with the perfect humans that God had in mind for it from the beginning of times. May the peace of God that excels all thought be with you always!

Pretend you have just received hug from a hateful atheist. Sorry for you, but you have to think about something else. No amount of crying will ever change what is.

God gave us the gift of memories. I thank him for that. there are so many parts of my life that I would give just about anything to go back and relive or at least see. ..now you got me tearing. literally. but we just have to thank God for everything He has made and done for us. not many people have good memories to look to. and just Cherish your mother with every minute left. is the best advice I could give to you. I hope you use it wisely
