overwhelmingly sad feeling from a dream

when i woke up this morning, i just started to crying, and my eyes were warm and tears were running down.

i haven't felt such a strong feeling from a dream in a while.

it was my mom's funeral.

in the dream, she was already gone, and there is no indication of why she was dead. it was taken place at my grandma's house. i was sad, but overwhelming feeling of sadness and regrets came near the end of the funeral.

the fact that i can't talk to her again finally sank in my mind. and thought why didn't i tell her that i thank for what she has done for me and felt deepest remorse for not being able to return anything for her.

i woke up because i felt warm tears running down my face.

this made me think about how would i deal with this feeling when it happens for real. terrifying.

after work, on the way home, i called and told her about the dream and how i felt.
"don't you worry. i won't die so easily." she laughed, "i'm happy to know how you feel about me."

the day will probably come. perhaps not now, but in a few decades which is about how much time we've been spending together.

so tell your loved ones that you love and care if you haven't told them. please call your parents today.
