In the quiet of her room, an old woman lies, her body frail, her breaths but gentle sighs. her eyes closed, she dreams of days gone by, and wonders what it's like to finally die.
"I know I'll soon go, but before I do I just have one wish to fulfill, to be with loved ones, and to feel their kiss."
She longs to see her children's faces once more, and hold her grandchildren tight, like never before.
She knows her time is up, her journey is done, but still, she clings to life, with all her might, as one.
She prays for strength to make it through the night, to say goodbye to all, before she takes her final flight.
She said to them her final words:
"love each other before they go, for life is just a fleeting breath, a moment in the sun, and nothing more,
and then suddenly you'll be surprised when comes to you to die".
And as the sun set on that final day, old dying women peacefully passed away.
