It signifies being aware of everything you have and being grateful about it. Be grateful for the happiness which leads to growth, and also for sadness which gives a depth to life.”

Last Dinner at Lola’s House

By | Celebrations, Foodie | One Comment

21 days after Lola Charing passed away, we had one last meal at her home where she lived 56 years of her life. We all grew up here and this is the place where we would get together with the family with many fond memories. The few days before she left us, the family would go here to visit her and so it was many days of seeing the family. Lola was very weak and There were several false alarms and I wondered why she didn’t want to go yet. And many times I felt that Lola liked seeing us gather there around her together as a family, which was why she didn’t want to leave us so quickly. And I noticed that now the family is even closer. We  getting together because we want to feel Lola, we feel comfort being together and we have one thing in common – Our  for Lola Last Dinner at Lola's House (2)
