spilled pensieve

waves roared at the piece of rock where he stood.
from all edges, it crashed and wanted to cave in to the tiny land where he stood.
and as if the sea was frustrated with not enough power to push him off, it made its waves bigger and stronger.
he felt all the anger now, and started fighting not to be knocked off with the icy water trying to grasp his feet.
it went on like forever, like nothing would save him as he felt the wind stabs hard on his skin
but then out of nothing, he saw a great bird swoop him on its back before the tiny bit of rock he once stood got devoured by the raging sea

I’ve seen unconditional love

Today, at the emergency room, pediatric section, a  grandpa was cheering his 1-year old grandson. His grandson had just vomited milk and started to cry uncontrollably. So his grandma made him sat on her lap while his grandpa do funny body gestures to make the child stop his sobs. Even until the child has calmed down, he kept comforting the child to the extent that he was blowing the site were a needle was inserted for his IV. The rare scene lasted for a few hours until the grandpa and his grandson finally slept side-by-side on their bed.

It was such an inspiring sight. Hopefully, when the child is all grown-up, he’ll never forget this part of his life where someone never left him alone and gave him all the protection he needed without anything in return.
