OUAS~ Once Is Enough
15:25:00
Hello everyone Charllie here again with a new layout to share which portray Life . This layout help me to express the feeling of happiness and sadness . I wish I could do a tutorial in making this layout but I can't due to busy days . I'm really sorry guys to say that these "busy days" are those days I'm with Dad in the hospital. last Tuesday Dad passed away and I felt terrible and depressed on this day . So I stop crying and I created a layout for him ( actually I created a mixed-media layout but I will post it later due to not editing the photos )
Okay , This layout was made before Dad had passed but I guess it's message relates on what happen when Dad died. Okay no time to waste here is it:
ONCE IS ENOUGH (journaling)
Life is just a borrowed thing !!God gave us life to experience it once , if he gave you a 2nd chance ,do it right do it good like what my Dad did. He suffered from Trauma after he experienced Hold-up and shot by gun but he was saved by a pendant in his heart which there is a picture of Mary and Christ!! Life is not long it is short , few of those "chosen one " or people gave a second chance in life . We often don't mind it and don't take the step to do it right . Dad did after he died he showed us how great he is and how we are so lucky to have him ... I know life is too short for him but I guess God took him because his mission was finished and he Did the right thing . So for you guys remember that if God have give you another chance to live , Take it and do it right for life happens ONCE ,and ONCE IS ENOUGH !!
