rain
When you are ecstatic, complacent, and high-spirited, you will suddenly be given a blow to your head, pumping you into the bottom of the abyss, and then some rain will drench you, blowing a cold wind, and let you feel what is desperately cold.
There are always some people who are born so smooth sailing that they can say positive words with confidence. And there are people who have no reason to go through ups and downs, and thus lose hope in the world. But as a human being, no matter what kind of person you have, you have to move on, because life has to go on, and if you run aground and give up, it will only make things worse, and you have to face it, and you have to protect what is left of the precious things. Don't let them get hurt again, it's the only right thing a rough man can do.
Sometimes, without warning, you have to face some cruel and inevitable realities, and as long as you live, you can't get rid of them. People summarize these things as birth, old age, sickness and death.
When your dearest person is in pain, you feel guilty that you are no longer by your side, or you are watching your loved ones suffer so much, and you are powerless to pray for the efficacy of the medicine and the reliability of the doctor's treatment. No matter what happens for half a year or a year, as long as you can recover, then these may be fine. And what is even more powerless is that the people close to them suddenly left like this one day, and never saw each other again, and never heard each other's voices again.
Lin pressed the answer button, it was a call from her mother, and when she received the call, she felt that something was wrong, and her mother did not have the same vitality and joke as usual, but asked her in a low voice.
............................................................
"Did something happen?" Lin asked, always feeling that the atmosphere was strange.
On the phone, the mother said something in a low voice, which pushed Lin's excitement to the bottom.
Something happened at home...... Her grandmother had died, and she had to leave for England to attend her grandmother's funeral.
Lin hurriedly packed his luggage and passport, bought the nearest plane ticket online with his mobile phone, went out to take a taxi, and headed straight towards the airport.
..................
There are various sayings about life, all kinds of people have created all kinds of lives, some people praise, some people curse, but even if it is said to be out of the blue, it cannot be changed, that is, this is a process from life to death, from gain and loss, and everyone is nothing but the same. That's why the Buddha said, "Everything is empty." ”
Loss is a journey that is inevitable for all people.
The plane moved forward, gradually flew up to the clouds, and soon reached an altitude of 10,000 meters. The majestic white clouds were under the plane, but Lin was not in the mood to watch it at this time, she picked up her ticket after arriving at Narita Airport, and did not wait long to board the direct British Airways flight to London.
It was still 12 hours before she got to London, which made her feel a little anxious, and she wanted to go back now, back to that home, back to her grandmother. Sitting in the innermost part of the cabin, Lin clenched her fists and tried to keep herself calm, she looked out the window in a daze, recalling what happened when she was a child.
My grandmother was a well-dressed and temperamental lady, and the vicissitudes of her head could not erase her delicate silhouettes, from which it can be inferred that my grandmother must have been a beautiful woman when she was young, and Lin could still imagine how her grandfather had gone through all kinds of hardships to defeat one competitor after another in order to win the favor of her grandmother.
My grandmother was a gentle and sincere believer, and every day she had to put on her glasses and sit on a chaise longue to read the Bible for an hour, although she was very strict with her mother and uncles, but she doted on her granddaughter, and when she was young, Lin often stayed with her grandmother, eating snacks and drinking afternoon tea together. My grandmother was the first audience member of her guitar performance, and I miss it when I think about the past.
The old man witnessed her growth from childhood to adulthood, and she also saw the traces of the old man's gradual aging, and now that she has graduated, she didn't expect the old man to leave like this.
The plane passed through blue skies, black clouds, lightning, everything. Thoughts are constantly changing, and time is passing by second by second, not in a hurry. Half a day passed, and the plane flew into England.
Lin sat in his seat and took a deep breath, and hurried over, thinking a lot in his head, but he didn't think about anything clearly. In fact, she doesn't know what to use right now
When Lin got on the plane and rushed to London, her father drove to pick her up, and when she arrived, her mother stretched out her hand to her, and Lin hugged her and whispered comfort in her ear. Mother is the only youngest daughter in the family, of course, she is also very spoiled, she loves her grandmother very much, no matter how busy she is, she will come back every year to celebrate her grandmother's birthday.
........................
's father is introverted, usually doesn't express much, and is not good at laughing, but after greeting Lin, he just drove silently.
My mother is a rich woman with blonde hair and long curly hair, and because of her natural beauty and good maintenance, she looks like a newly married, young woman in her twenties.
"Are you tired?" she asked Lin with a friendly smile, and she could see that Lin's hearty and sunny smile came from her.
Lin also smiled and shook her head, but she knew that the person in front of her was just pretending to be smiling in front of her daughter, Lin kissed her mother, hugged her, and gave this sad person the warmest comfort. And Lin is also in her arms, seeking the warmest comfort. At this time, the sad man who lost his mother and the sad man who lost his grandmother hugged each other tightly. Tears flowed out at this time, and the eyes of both of them were moist. They are the closest, blood-related relatives, a long hug that is worth a thousand words, more than everything......
Birth, old age, sickness and death are always so helpless. When you don't have to face these things, people are in high spirits. When you have to face it, you will realize how small and powerless you are in this world.
Whether it's small or powerless, when things happen in front of you, you can only face them.
As for the scars in your heart, you can only stick to them with faith, or divert your attention to forget, let family and friendship comfort you, and use time to heal......
..............................
The next day, when the sky was full of dark clouds, the priest at the door of the church was greeting, and the men carried the coffin from the hearse and entered a local church, where people in black suits and dresses lined up at the entrance of the church behind them.
In the church, the pastor is reading the Bible for the deceased, and the crowd is singing hymns in unison for the deceased.

At the grave, the priest prays that the deceased may receive God's love and mercy. My grandmother's coffin was placed in the ground and buried in this peaceful land.
After the funeral, the mourners and relatives who attended the funeral came to their homes to have a meal, encouraged and comforted each other, filled each other's emptiness, and tried to live in the following days.
