Well there has been one thing that has really pushed me down quite a bit for a little bit over a month. A very close person passed away. Even tho i was not speaking to him often for the last year, maybe once a month, i still feel like lost something special. He was my neighbour from my home town. From the town where i was born. He was over 80 years old already, and i can say that he was like a father figure for.He was like a father which i never had because my biological father left the family when i was four years old.
I have so many childhood memories with him, so much time spent together. The time and the memories i did not value i think enough, because when i got the news that he was gone t was a really weird feeling. I was coming back from work and my mother called me and said what happened. He was cleaning the snow from the backyard and he had a heart attack. I mean i remember cleaning the snow together and just talking about households, about buildings, about things like that. And it really shocked me, because later i was just sitting and days went by as i was thinking what is wrong with me. I guess i and neither he actually knew and will ever know how much the old man meant to me. He was like a grandfather i never had. One of the nicest people i have ever met in 23 years old life. When i was a kid i listened how he was speaking with the animals, he had a dog, a pig back then, couple of cows. When i was about 10 years old, he said that when i will be 16 he will give a bull as a present, because i wanted my own farm back then like nothing else.
We went fishing with him together too, because at one point i had no friends, because of the bullying at school etc. The one thing i regret now is that i never managed to say that he helped me so much. I loved the old man, what i truly understood only by knowing that there will not be any other time we could speak again. It is just over and that sucks. I just wanted to get this off my chest, with dedicating this drawing to the memory of the nicest human being i have ever known.

But I should say you have grown up as a young man as good as he was! And at some point I think deep in the heart he knew and saw that. You had a great example, now be the one for others!

Thank you so much, I hope and i will do everything not to disappoint. I know he made me a better and more loving as a human being, and that is where my love for every living being grew only bigger and bigger. I guess that is why I also talk with animals, just like he did

In African culture The old man has a very special status. He's too respectable. They say every old man who dies a library that burns.

I can learn from your life story,
"whatever we have, take care of him, respect him, for someday we will lose him"

he seems to be a wise man, most likely he understood how much you care about him and how important he is for you... sorry about your loss
