Hi guys! Finally, iam back to blog... Decided not to abandon this blog... Anyway, holidays have been great so far. With causal meeting ups with my class, playing winning 11 etc, its been long since i have experienced this kindda life... Really enjoyable.. haha...
Anyway, i have been watching a show called One Litre of Tears. It is about a girl called Aya Kito who was diagnosed with a disease called Spinocerebellar Degeneration when she was just 15 years of age. She was able to continue her life until at the age of 25 yrs old, when she died. It is based on a true story and is a really touching show. When she was 15, she started writing a diary, recounting her daily encounters and her feelings until the day where she cannot writes. Slowly, this disease took away her ability to perform simple tasks of her daily life, such as walking, writing, talking and etc. However, she gets to retain all her mental abilities which is why she is living in pain. Imagine you wanna walk, but u just couldn't stand up to walk and imagine u wanna say thanks to that person but u could not express how u felt. This is really a terrrible feeling.
I must really say, this drama is the best show i have ever watched, it really epics how human life is strong yet fragile at the same time. Even though Aya could not do many things, but her determination to live is just termendous, it also touched the people around her. In school, although her friends are helping her, but they began to find it to be a chore because of the lack of social and study life due to the time needed to help her get around the school. Her parents are also giving their best to care for her. It really evokes lots of emotions and thoughts in me.
Like what she wrote in her diary, "just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing." It gives us a new meaning of our perspective to life. One phrase which really touched was when she said in her diary, "If you look up at the sky after falling down, the blue sky is also today stretching limitlessly and smiles at me... Iam alive".
So, guys if u have the free time, go watch this drama, although the romance is not based on true story, but the feelings and thoughts are according to the diary that she wrote. She was just 15 and she had to face such truth of suffering from an incurable disease.
Many times, we are complaining bout life, school, work, romance, money and wanting to live in luxury but we often overlook the greatness of being alive, being abe to run, being able to talk, being able to perform daily tasks which seems simple to us but in fact difficult for people who suffered from diseases etc. Thus, these shows are constant reminders to us,of how life can be wonderful. Even though. such thoughts of how simple tasks we do are deemed simple by us, but to other people, it is impossible it is a wishful thought of standing up to walk. After watching this drama, i really thought things out. Hope you guys will watch this drama and realise the greatness of life itself. Tc...
