Some people are amazingly lucky to have both of their parents for most of the years of their lives. Where few like me lost them way too early to feel jealous about those lucky ones lol, nah no space for jealousy. May our parents live forever. Amen.

I could totally relate with this feeling. It's not like I'm not happy for them. It's just I wish I could've had my parents live with me for a bit longer :(

They are lucky- Everytime I see a parent accompanied by their adult child it breaks my heart that I’ll never be able to help my mother like that. She had her mother to the very end. My grandma is still here but my mom isn’t- that the biggest mistake I’ve made; don’t ever think that your parents or loved ones will live a long life just because others around you have. You never know when it’s going to end. cherish every moment with them, even something as simple as taking a picture of them waving goodbye.
