I will cherish you forever.

Who would think such sentence can have a strong and deep impression?

Twice I heard this sentence, each in a different way, and it touched me and made me cry.


In case you are curious, the first time was with the anime of Kimi ni Todoke. The second time was today, with (the scene and the soundtrack of) The King 2 Hearts.


I suppose I can say that we may have heard this sentence so many times, in different form of words or expressions, but never really considered it as something important. Although death will sure come, that this life would come to an end, we all expect that it will still happen some time far away, in few years in the future. Still a long way to go. Or that the current life we have is already a happy one, we are completely satisfied with it or just can't be too bothered to actually do something else for a change. Or we can do it some time soon, just not now. Still a long way to go.

Happy moments, sad moments. The joy of finding someone important in your life after a windy and hurtful road, and to know that this person feels the same about you. The pain of losing a friend you have been together with for a long time, who supports you and listen to you, who gets angry at you and scolds you; he was lost protecting you until the very end. Perhaps not as extreme as those examples. Yet there surely are times when you feel so up high that it makes you feel so light or deep down that it's suffocating. All those moments, those people, those times bring us this far and turn us into who we are now.

Our lives are so fragile. In a blink of an eye everything can changed, you never know. Still we often neglect it and let it pass away just like that. I have been living like that. You may have, too.

Have you and I cherished our lives today?
