City Hall, Old Town, Pasadena
I had to take care of some legal mumbo jumbo.
As if that wasn't bad enough, I was reminded of my dying grandfather.
Naturally, I cried.
As I cried, a man walked by.
Instead of ignoring me, he looked at me and said, "Wow, you're gorgeous."
I didn't know how to respond so I got in my car and drove away.
Now that I think about it though, I wish I had thanked him properly.
Even though he uttered only three words to me, he comforted me.
He made me thankful that people like him still exist.
Then I realized that if there are people like him on Earth, then there must be people twice as nice in Heaven.
It's comforting to know that my grandfather will be with those caring people soon.
...Even so, I still don't want him to go!

I love you, Grandpa. I probably didn't say it enough but I want you to know that I love you and I always will. I love you and I'm sorry I can't be by your side right now. I'll try not to cry if you promise me you'll fight to live. 爷爷,求求你,你一定要等我。你不要先走呵。。。
