what i've missed.

my trip to cali was amazing as i got to visit all my cousins. the 70 degree weather was a plus, but it ofcourse only made me realize how cold oregon was as i came home to 40 degree weather and the heater was off -__-. brr.

anyways, there was definitely one moment that happen that made me realize sometimes life goes by real fast and you miss certain things that ur body and mind has tucked away over the years. we were on the freeway going home, when my uncle ..busy watching a cop car get ready to pull over a group of motorcyclists, misses the exit....so he says to me and my cousin: lets go see Uncle 10's old house shall we? so we take the exit a couple miles down and go up a hazy familiar drive through the neighborhood. we approached an old water reservoir, and before i can think about it...my body is pulled straight up in my seat and my eyes tear up as my vision automatically fills in the picture before me with my grandma and us cousins , young again, standing atop the boxes and watching the fireworks from Disneyland. how did we ever get up there? my grandma had the strength to lift all of us up there? I allowed for two tears to silently fall..and no more...i did not want to cry in front of everyone for what seemed like something so small. I don't know if it was tears from the joyful memories of my childhood, the love and security i felt from the routine outing with my gma, or if it was tears of the bittersweet, knowing that only that morning we had gotten together for a memorial service for my gma who was no longer with us.
My cousin and I scrambled out of the car after the initial shock left us staring at the reservoir. we took a picture and for once I was so thankful I even thought to bring my camera along for dinner, even if all i had in mind was pictures of food. We took a picture in front of the reservoir and almost as if both of us were wishing the same thing....fireworks from Disneyland started to light the night sky before us. It was as if my gma had been there again standing there watching over us as we beamed childlike smiles, watching the fireworks. we only stayed for five minutes, but those five minutes seemed to fill up all the past years of what i had been missing, longing for, the memories that i had only spoken about during rare occurrences, i had the chance to experience again with my cousin...the experience, the kind that when we had walked away without saying anything and had still related to each others feelings more than ever. i had missed my childhood, the stressfree night outings, the fireworks, my cousins excited next to me, my grandmother, always next to us, watching us, smiling because we were smiling. maybe thats why i had allow tears to fall now instead of then, not there. But when you think about it, its the things that we miss, that allow us to cherish more when we've found them again.

there are big things in life... and then there are the small things that make it even better or brighten the moment. i've decided that getting SLIGHTLY better from being sick is one of those small things......that eventually lead to a big thing: HEALTHY.
