Empty your cup

Life is funny. When you think your life is finally full, you have to "empty your cup".
I thought now, finally, I have it all. I have a degree, a fine job, a wonderful husband, an angel child, a good car. But... facing my father's dieing has made me rethink.

It's so weird talking to my father every day, knowing he is not going to be with us for much longer. We are talking weeks, maybe maybe months, if we're lucky. And he is so at peace with death. He is just smiling, playing with his grandson. I know he is in a lot of pain, and I asked him the other day if he is at peace with death, looking so calm. He said: "What else can I do?" in the most peaceful way. It's so hard for me to even imagine living without my father so soon in my life.

Death is the ultimate deadline. And I'm not good with deadlines.

People intertwind

I have a special gift. Have not turned it into a career (yet). Maybe I should. Have a dating agency, or something.
The gift is that I see resemblance in people, who have a certain purpose together, usually as couples, sometimes as friends.

I don't know how to explain it, it's a certain very similar energy, even physical similarity amid two of their own kind, two that belong together. I can just tell that two people are meant for each other.

It all started when I was in high-school ....
