What I Learned From Losing Someone Special | Anar Amarjargal | TEDxAmericanSchoolOfUlaanbaatar


loving some wanting can be the easiest

and hardest to perfection one can have

it can be easy because the ones you love

are usually the ones who support you and

the ones you rely on it can be hard

because at some point of your life you

may lose that loved one you can lose a

loved one from rather a tragedy or even

from growing apart losing someone can be

a very difficult thing to go through but

it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad

thing from their death you can learn

something I have realized that a person

that every moment of their life is

always learning something new

it made me learn to talk specific

language later have to walk and do

certain things then we go to school and

learn an amazing amount of lessons but

the one thing that not all schools teach

used to love and cherish your loved ones

when I was 13 years old I lost my

beloved baby sister she was only 2 years

old it was the hardest thing I’ve ever

faced till this day my baby sister’s

name was Raveena but we called her in a

few short Nina was diagnosed with Down

syndrome she spends most of her life in

hospital taking medications and getting

TACT’s to see if everything system was

all right I remember my span of about 3

months when she was in the hospital

every single day taking medications and

getting injections whenever I saw her

her arm was bandaged bruised from all

the injections that she has gotten but

even with all that my baby sister would

just forget about everything that was

happening to her and do it for the

children and laugh and enjoy her life

her smile was the only thing that kept

me on the coast after all that happened

my mom used to tell me whenever I got

her shots

there’d be tears stinging in my mother’s

eyes and my baby sister would look up at

her and smile as if she was telling her

I’m alright mom don’t cry because of me

because of her my mother said that was

so much pain and emotion it urged me to

think about life differently my baby

sister’s death gave me a reason to see

life in a different light made me want

to make sure that my baby sister’s death

wasn’t for nothing

I wanted to make a proud no matter where

she was I wanted to make a

I didn’t know how to do that at that

time but I think I do now it is human

nature to take others for granted people

don’t realize that whatever you have

whether it is their friends or family we

often don’t appreciate them until

they’re gone from international service

I think that people regret them most in

life Auto relate to the relationships

they have built with others but I ask

you instead of regretting about the

people you lose or the relationships

that fall apart

why not cherish every single day you

have with those you care while you still

can and you can start doing this today

even if you haven’t had dinner with your

family for the past few days or you

haven’t done anything together with them

there is always a thing called today

where you can start new from those

international surveys there’s nothing

about not getting a specific piece of

coding or buying a new iPhone they all

regret the thing that most of us have

already why should we regret them 10

years time think that everybody regrets

when we had the chance to share

instead I hope you can learn from my

loss after losing my beautiful baby

sister I went through a phase and I

might even still be going to that face

to this day when I was in middle school

I didn’t really care about how I did I

just want the flow and wasn’t that sad

or disappointed if I got a be like how a

kind of denial and this 10th grade I

heard a bit more and I strived for

better grades it wasn’t until my

babysitter’s death that I started the

lid for Ace waiting for creates and not

looking for you it’s a really

disappointing thing to do some people

might think it’s weird when mourning the

loss of a loved one it would be natural

to lose focus on schoolwork while I took

the opposite I tried harder to make sure

that she was proud no matter what and I

thought the only way I could do that was

to study hard and get good grades well

get off I got good grades but while I

gained something I also lost something I

lost the connection with my family I

noticed the time that I spent my family

was lessening and then all of a sudden I

realized through my sister’s death that

the height the time that I have my

parents and siblings is not forever it

doesn’t matter if you’re not good at

something if you’re interested in it

I bet desired practice actually does

make perfect but don’t make but make

sure you don’t lose yourself to your

work instead of losing yourself you

should retain yourself take something

life-changing out of your experiences

the life did you think be realizing that

lot of people have what you have family

loved ones or even a good education and

that needs to be grateful for everything

you have last year fifty five million

people died those fifty five million

people that behind loved ones family

members friends who’s gonna miss them

dad can be a frightful thing especially

for those who are left behind you can

also see one affair when loved ones were

taken away before their time but as I

tried to believe everything happens for

a reason I remember one day I was with

my friends having a good time and then

all of a sudden my mom calls me and

tells me to come home when I asked why

she said that I needed to come home and

babysit my baby sister because she had

earned to run back then it was a pain

watching over her but when I think about

it now I would do anything for her to be

in my life and the chance to watch over

her just one more time that day when I

was in my building waiting for the

elevator to come down I wish those words

were the most regretted words that ever

passed my mind and I sometimes think to

myself oh stop trying

stop trying to fulfill their dream start

bad habits and just don’t care anymore

being a teenager is hard I know because

I am one you’re pushed to be the best

college in the future just a pile on to

that stress Tina just moves and

personalities can change really easily

even if you think you’re all grown up to

your parents you are still the little

child

if your parents have cared for you and

loved you with all their hearts I can’t

we do the same if kids truthfully tears

their family and don’t take the for

granted I truly believe people’s lives

can change now it may seem like your

parents don’t Angie

but in a few years time you’re gonna

look back and admit that many of the

things the coach were right and much of

the vice to give you was wise parents

can be really strict so they can be

really easygoing but remember that hairy

parents raised you

sheeps through arts day we need to learn

I realize that it’s loving the ones that

are close to us should not be a hard job

to do you don’t have to buy them

anything or call them daily goodbye kiss

when you’re leaving the house can mean a

lot simply saying word two syllables

hello or goodbye can mean something for

your loved one one thing I learned from

using my sisters that master start

loving the ones that are close to us

before they’re gone family should be the

most important thing in life even if

some of us have little of it I remember

the day my beautiful baby sister died my

aunt came to my school in the middle of

the morning to pick me up the school

manager came to my class to tell the

teacher to excuse me and she asked if a

sister had been sick those words didn’t

even say anything he’s just had her mind

is blank

all I could think was nothing I was so

shocked that’s my wonderful baby sister

was absolutely gone once actually saw my

sister all I could think was what now

what am I supposed to do some of the

voice inside my head were saying that

everything was going to turn out alright

and other voices had to punish others so

that my pain could go away even if you

do push away people it’s not gonna heal

you all it’s going to do was hurt even

more

the back there’s also an important thing

to have for your family members even if

they’re younger than you

my parents are super strong and caring

you have gone through they can make me

the life and living aunt who thanks for

that my mom is the most strongest person

I’ve ever met

she’s gone through hell it wasn’t one of

her daughter’s aunt he’s immensely

strong I always wanted to be as strong

as her but it’s hard it’s hard wanting

people to see you as strong but really a

car yourself to sleep I can’t imagine

life without her

my father is the most caring and loving

person in the world he never raised his

voice to anyone and through his day

night ma stop just to make our life

easier

he is so selfless he does everything for

his family and nothing for himself when

I grow up I want to be my parents I want

to be the person who’d do anything for

their family my big sister is also a

huge inspiration for me she tried to go

hard in everything all the hard work

pays off for her she got a hundred

missing scholarship to really good

school in America and to also make sure

I have fulfilled my dreams she helps me

make big choices and she’s always there

for me my big sister and I were young we

used to fight all the time we still do

sometimes but we both know you love each

other my little sister is also a person

whom I truly respect even though she’s

still little she has the personality of

love and the kind of person she laughs

every single day and that laugh makes

everyone laugh she makes life worth

living I participated in an exchange

program to Japan just this past month

during the first four days I’d be with

my host family I was really homesick

whenever I did something with my host

family I wanted to be with my own family

that month was where I truly realized

you need your family you need them to be

there you need them to care for you we

are still teenagers I don’t get easier

and there’s a good chance to become

harder every single year so even if you

think you do so much better without your

loved ones think again remember all the

times where a family member helped you

with something for an example helping

you with your homework cleaning your

room making you food they may even want

they’re always going to be there for you

even when you might not want it your

high visualising life without specific

members of your family I hope you

typical ten-time team I know we are

still teenagers and I suppose some of us

won’t even think about these things but

my recommendation to you is to do think

about them in the end it won’t be a

piece of clothing or a new iPhone that

your best it’s going to be your own

family

one of the hardest parts of life is

losing someone and not knowing what to

do about it so when you ask yourself the

question what now listen to the voice

that comes from your heart listen to the

voice where it says everything will be

just fine as long as I people to love

people who love me

I lost my wonderful baby sister but I

also gained the realization that love

needs to be shown every single day you

have those you care you have to show love he’s got a chance
