Fourth POV

November 2, 2023

Bangkok Cemetery

8 am

"Let's go Fourth! Hurry up the deads are waiting for us."  Gemini said

"Calm down your horses. I am here." I said

We went to our cemetery to visit our dead loved ones. This is the only when we can visit them officially because the day itself was named after them. I am very and grateful that we will be able to visit them and reflect just for a day.

Gemini's family is also in the same cemetery that my family is staying. We are so lucky that we don't have to go to another place for us to reflect. We only have on cemetery to go.

"Let's go to my family first this morning then to your family later in the afternoon, alright?" I said

"Okay babe, we will do that. By the way, how's your hangover last night? Do you need some medicine? I have one for you. Take care of yourself even if I am taking care of you already. You are the only one who can help yourself."  Gemini said

"Babe, don't worry about me too much. I am taking a good care of myself and you should too. I love you and that will be always the same forever. Let's take care of ourselves so that we can live longer than we thought." I said

"Random question, babe. What is life for you?" Gemini asked

"For me, life is a chance for us to live in this wonderful world. Life takes us to a place where we can experience a lot of things and face all the challenges and goodness that life has to offer. We may be facing something hard right now, but life makes sure that we will be okay. We will always be okay if we keep on thriving. We will always be okay if we keep on living. We will always be okay if we keep on growing." I said

"Well, great answer. For me, life is a roller coaster ride. We rode there to go through the ups and downs of life. We face it whole heartedly without knowing what will happen next. We go up if we are having a good time in life and go straight ahead towards the direction of our desire. We go down sometimes when things get rough, but we go again straight forward to redeem ourselves to be able to get back and go up once again." Gemini said

"I guess we both have deep meanings about life.  I love that sometimes we can be sensitive and vulnerable with our feelings because it is good for our mental and emotional health. Let us keep on doing this once in a while to reflect on all the things that we are going through." I replied

"I agree to your suggestion, but this time let us focus to our departed loved ones and pray for their peace and guide us as we navigate the thing called life." Gemini replied

We went to Gemini's family to pray and reflect after going to my family and we also offer some blue roses.
