i will remember you...

2 years and 1 day ago... it was just after i watched star wars episode 3 in sydney. as i was walking back to my place, i got a call from my sis. she told me that thatha had passed away. a part of me crumbled. another part of me felt relief that he was finally out of the misery that he had been in for the past 4 months.

2 years ago.. i landed back in singapore and got whisked away to my grandparents' house. in the evening, i felt the need to escape the wailing and i felt the need to express myself. met anuja and we drove up to kent ridge park, where we sat on a bench overlooking pasir panjang wharf and she helped me put down my thoughts into words (thanks noojie). this was the result. the eulogy was well received by those who attended the ceremony at the crematorium.

thatha, we still remember you and your influence in our lives will always be there. we miss you.
