Dream 2

Continuing with the theme of dreams…

Just woke up… just so I can post this before I forget everything. I actually don’t remember much of it anymore except for the one last scene. The scene was just my dad and my grandpa outside probably walking towards a church of some kind because it was my dad’s wedding day. My grandpa looked just like my dad now and my dad maybe looking a bit younger. I somehow knew that my grandpa dyed his hair… Yo… I just remembered something about the dream (thinking out loud). This was a dream, about me telling my dad about a dream. I was telling my dad about seeing him and his dad. Anyways, my grandpa looked happy and he was smiling while walking. My dad was obviously smiling as well because it was his wedding day.

It’s not much, but it’s mostly the reflection that counts! I’ve only remembered seeing that grandpa twice. All my relatives live in Hong Kong so I’ve only remembered seen any of them maybe just twice. The last time I went to Hong Kong was 5-6 years ago to visit my grandpa because he was dying. Which did end up happening a few weeks after we left back to Canada. Got the news with Nimalan beside me cause we were gaming when I got the call from my aunt. The point was that from the last time I saw him, he had no smiles, he was pretty sad. Maybe because he had no energy, or maybe because he was anticipating his own death which is a very scary thing. Seeing him smile in my dream actually brought me manly tears of joy.

Every time I went to Hong Kong I felt closer to my family; both direct relations and just my relatives. I’m not that close to my family rite now, but this dream somehow got me to feel a bit closer… somehow. I sometimes do wish that I had relatives to visit like everyone else. Daniel and his “aunt colony”. He has so many relatives… Nimalan with his set of relatives going to his house once in a while. Jon with his relatives living like right across from him. Don’t know peter… sorry peter… maybe you can comment about yourself =). I want to chill with my cousins and aunts and uncles. Even if they were here though it’d be pretty hard to communicate as they would most likely talk in cantonese and I suck at that right now coz I haven’t really spoken it for possibly 3 weeks straight since the last time I went to Hong Kong. Feel blessed you people with relatives. Some of us don’t get to have that bonding time. Well my relatives do… with each other.. just not with us here in Canada. Sad.

Mweh? haha… such a nice sounding word.
