I just finished reading chapter 1 yesterday. As a graduating college student, this book is relatable. And it made me realize that time is going forward, and it will never go backwards. There's no crying over spilled milk but there's always the good choice, the right choice, and the bad choice in life. It all depends on us who will make the last call. As for me, I went straight to the cemetery where my father is buried at right after I finished reading chapter 1 of this book. And I cried remembering that we're just like the characters of the first story, Jean and her Dad. We always argue about/over small things. And I continue to study because he wants me to graduate. Even if now, he's in heaven with God. And he won't be able to attend my graduation which he was so excited about. He just past last September 27, 2021. And as of today, it's March 24, 2022. I'm waiting to graduate on or before July this year.
