Hey, though i’m not sure you’ll still be reading this, but look at the bright side all the time..

i am probably in no position to say this to you because i haven’t gone through what you are going through, so i might not understand how you feel. but i am sure you wouldn’t want to see people who love and concern about you to be as grey as what you thought, would you?

check out this link on my Interesting Reads section called YuinYin, she’s no ordinary bimbo girl blogger, ok? i linked her because i have been enjoying myself reading her blog all this while. she is a nice, pretty, optimistic girl whom i admire her courage, her will to live and her strength to pull herself together even though she was diagnosed with cancer, every article of hers is a motivation and sort of a spiritual adrenalin injection to me. they gave me strength too.

here’s her latest entry, check it out, will ya? i hope it gives you the strength like how it gave me. do not forget that you are not doing this alone, your parents, your wife and your kids are doing it together with you, and i believe your friends will always support you like they always have been.

i wish you the best of health and speed recovery.

MODENA, Italy (Reuters) - Legendary Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti, whose titanic voice and charisma brought opera to the masses, died of cancer on Thursday aged 71.

“There were tenors, and then there was Pavarotti,” said Italian film director Franco Zeffirelli.

His health had been failing for a year, but the death of the bearded tenor, known as “Big Luciano” because of his 280 lb bulk, saddened everyone from impresarios and critics to fans who could barely afford tickets.
