Life has been moving way too fast these days. The only thing keeping me in is being sick. The only thing bringing me to this page is sadness.. Any minute now, my family in the Philippines will begin my Uncle Eddie's funeral services. Even as life continues here, there has not been a day since I found out of his accident that I have not thought of my sweet uncle, my auntie, my cousins and his grand kids. He was kind, caring, and made every situation better with his light-heartedness. I knew that he was a special part of my life, but due to the distance all these years, I didn't expect to be this affected by his loss. But I am. And I love my cousins so. They were my best friends while I was growing up in the Philippines. I can't even begin to imagine how they must feel.  We lost my uncle on June 25 at 52 years old. He left us too soon. This is yet another reminder of how fragile and short life is. I hope there really is something bigger and better after this life, bec
