Is there someone in ur life or have met someone who is so annoying? Who is always making things 10 times harder for you than it really is...but at times he/she can be so sweet and makes you forget why you were so upset in the first place? You hate em, but you cant help it but love em? 

Over the summer I have met that person. He was a client of mine. He would drive me nuts!! He would make things so hard for me and so unnecessary, talking back to me in class, making jokes that would disrupt the class...my goodness!! But then there are times when he can be so sweet. After the Day Program was over, he’d come into my office, where us interns were working and told us he’d learned at lot from us and enjoyed our class and us being there. At exactly at 3:45pm he’d come to remind us about his walking group and asked us to join him. It’s the little things he does that makes him so special. Despite his crude remarks and unruly behavior...he’s a sweet old man, who’s lonely, and wanted his life back.

A couple of days ago I found out that this sweet man had passed, at the age of 58. I cannot believe this!! For 3 months I’ve spend my summer days with him, im not sure if I had made any impact on him, but I have learned so much from him. Even in his death, he had made me realize a lot about myself. I’ve been so self-involved I’ve forgotten what life is all about. His death reminded me of what my purpose in life is. Today, for the first time, in a long time I have found a glimpse of happiness.
