"if i have a daughter, i'd want her to be like you" were words that i could reminisce on and it brought immense amount of joy and love in my heart.. now sorrow is all that i feel and i can't tell if those words can make me feel the way it used to..

can i really make those words mean the same when it was first said to the person who said it and the person who was in agreement at the time?

will everything be the same as it was? or even close to it?

i really thought i came to terms with the situation and how i felt, but i have been proven myself wrong in this very moment.

This 144-Year-Old Wisteria In Japan Looks Like A Pink Sky

These stunning photographs, which look like a glorious late evening sky with dashes of pink and purple, are actually pictures of Japan’s largest wisteria (or wistaria, depending on whom you ask) plant.

This plant, located in Ashikaga Flower Park in Japan, is certainly not the largest in the world, but it still comes in at an impressive 1,990 square meters (or half an acre) and dates back to around 1870 (the largest, at about 4,000 square meters, is the wisteria vine in Sierra Madre, California). Although wisterias can look like trees, they’re actually vines. Because its vines have the potential to get very heavy, this plant’s entire structure is held up on steel supports, allowing visitors to walk below its canopy and bask in the pink and purple light cast by its beautiful hanging blossoms.
