Shall we celebrate the lives of those no longer with us with a meal?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I’ll start by bringing some of my country’s traditional food. It’s all for Adi, who could have tasted them all with his own mouth if he was still alive. He had a plan to fly to Vietnam just to meet me, and he seemed to have done a lot of research. He promised me he would try to recover so that we could meet. And I waited for the day we could sat in a restaurant and eat all of those things together… Adi, I know you hid your medical problems just to make sure I can enjoy my life to the fullest. In our last conversation you told me I can make a difference. Now I’m trying my best to recover from the loss and working for the “difference”. I won’t disappoint you. God this thread brings tears to my eyes.
