The word "if only" had played in my mind numerous times when I heard of Max's passing. "If only I had visited him when I knew". But its too late now, and all I have the feeling of regret that I didn't managed to see Max for the last time. Max is a great man. Although frugal and annoying at times, he can never fail to make you laugh when you are down. He took care of me when I first arrive in Brisbane. Although only my landlord, he treated me like a relative, helping me whenever i need help, making my first year in Brisbane much more easier. His houses and car are always filled with junk to the brim, and his love for these unwanted "treasures" never fail to amaze me.... I remember sitting in his car, and i felt that was the longest ride I ever had... slow yet scary. I never thought that I had so much respect and affection for Max until I heard the news of his passing. I could not help sobbing through out the ceremony, as I felt I should have done more for him as what he had done for me in the past year. Max I'll miss you. Your jokes, your silliness and your mumblings...You made me realised that life is short, and I should cherished it while I can.Labels: Life
