Life Expectancy: 65 Years

An avid collector of your hopes and worries, a romantic at heart.
She thanks her fairies, for blessing her with people who know compassion down to an art.
For accepting her for who she is, who never fails to turn up,
in times of need as well as happiness, or just there for a loving hug.

Familia
I finally have a sense of what family feels like...not that I have not had that feeling before, but I seem to have lost the 'sense' of it for sometime.
On saturday, my dad's youngest brother called me (let's call him xiao shu)...and he asked me about the bastards and how we're coping.
I was updating him and he told me he also went to see some political leaders to ask them for recommendations and advice about lawyers. I was touched to hear that....he gave me the advice that the political leader told him - which i find to make sense totally.
More so, is that he told me not to worry about the cost of this top lawyer and all he wants is that my dad and I can finally get a grip on my own family affairs and not have those idiots climb up and down our backs any more.
He said, the family (which is my dad's brothers) will 'bear the full cost of the legal fees' and told me to 'not worry about fighting because we don't have money'. I don't know how to accept it although I know my family will most probably need their help. What's more is that they have absolutely nothing to gain by helping us in this way...unconditional sacrifice~
To know that someone's got your back no matter how far you fall is a comforting feeling. It's even more so to know you can call your uncle any time and they'll listen to you rant without judgement. Most importantly, I know my father's got his family to take care of him so that I can somehow live on without worrying that he has no one to lean on for help in the future.
They say that you will only know a teabag's flavour once you immerse it in hot water...
I say hot water is appreciated better because of the teabag's flavour of goodness=)
