It has been such a hard Month..and to end it, we will be saying our goodbyes to our dear cousin who have gone home to be with The Lord on Tuesday.
- all came to sudden, and I was away during his 48 hour battle. I can never have imagined what happened..
- today was the last day of his wake.
I am truly amazed and inspired by the people that came to pay their respects to him. I met and spoke to few who met him through various ways. At 40, he definitely lived a life that is inspiring to many others. People from everywhere came.. primary school mates, army camp mates, co-workers from all over the world (towing their baggage), friends and colleagues. I really felt the love from everyone despite this sad occasion. It was Truly encouraging to see people making the efforts and wanting to pay their respects.
Even the rain did not stop them.
In particular, I spoke to this guy who only knew him for a year odd at camp (his final session). He spoke of things about him and kept saying how amazing a person he is even thou they only met and is friends for such a short period. I never felt this much humanity and love from so many strangers before... but they all came for the love of my cousin and they spoke to me like I am a friend to them as well..
I still cannot believe he has left us.
This growing up lesson is getting harder each time.
