Letter to family member

Dear keke,

   At the begging of this letter, I have to tell you how much I miss you after you left us two years ago. Although you didn’t left any word to me, I could still feel how much you love me, and what I want to tell you is as a dog of my family you are not only a pet but also a family member to us.

       Even there were two years passed by, I still feel pain when I think about that day you left us, I remember what happened in that moment, when the car hit against you I saw you comes flying in, but in that moment I even cannot move, I couldn’t believe my eyes, when I crushed to your side, what running in my mind was “that’s impossible, you won’t leave us.” Later, my mother and I took you to the hospital, but the doctor said you might cannot with us anymore. I was so sad but couldn’t cry, even couldn’t think, I got many of your smell in my mind, I was thinking about the first day you came to my life.

       I remember clearly the first day you came to my home, you was only 4 months young, you were full of curiosity, and when we made the first eye contact, you smelled to me and came to my side licked my hand with your tongue. At that time, I thought I cannot lose you as a family member. With the time passing by, since we first met each other, there were 7 years passed, you grown up with me during the last 7 years. Do you remember my first friend lin in my junior high school? I was really shy during that time, and when I got to my junior high school I didn’t make any friend at first, later then, I found a girl in my class lived near to me, I was eager to have friend to her but I didn’t know how to start. Who changed everything was you, even though you can’t speak in my way, but I believe you can understand me and also I can feel you, I remember that was a Friday evening after dinner, I walked you in the center park, and I saw lin was also there with her friends, I want to join them and make friends with them; however, I didn’t do anything but watched them, and then, you suddenly rushed to her and barked loudly, I run to you and said sorry to lin and her friends, but to my surprise, them were really interested on you, and lin said she remember me in the class, she wants to make friend to me! That moment, you smelled to me like the first day we met, I thought you are the present in my life.

      After that, I changed to outgoing and started to make more friends, I felt that was not that difficult as I thought before. I think what changed me was you, you let me know if I want something I have to strive to get that, I cannot just wait there and wait the chance come to me, every chance is prepare to the people who has already prepared. Now I becoming more and more confident, and when I meet new friend I am not that shy anymore, and I don’t need your to help make friend anymore. Although I changed a lot, I still feel I need you; however, I know I can only live in now, so the last lesson I learned from you when you died was cherish, I started to know the life is so weak some time, what I have to do is cherish everyone around me.

      Right now I always miss you, i can feel you around my side, i can many things by myself, that








you give me the power to do it. Hope everything is good on you when you in the heaven, and we miss

you as your family member all the time.
