i can't hang on anymore...

"be contented with current moment & work the best out of it" --- somewhat it is hard to maintain this belief for long...

my aunt said to me: "face it and do something abt it OR leave it and live with it. is your call!"

haiz.. hanging on is one thing and when reality is there, it is a totally different issue. i dunno how long more i can hold on to my belief, i dunno if i have the energy to hang on, i dunno how and what i shld do to make myself feel better and carry on with this journey. i noe i need to find the balance and the motivation to hang on BUT is the motivation good enough to cover up for whatever is lacking from DAY 1? i still have a BIG question mark in my mind.

i noe it is time for me to do something rather than wait for something tat may not even come by. i hesitated initially but now i am very sure tat i need to do something before the situation stay stagnant for long.

praying hard and really need all the good blessing.. :)

in remembrance..

a pair of spectacles, long sleeve shirt, tailored pants and a smiley face.. tat's my impression of my granduncle since young. he doted on my brother and i since young. whenever we stayed at his house in Malaysia during school holidays, he took good care of us by showing us around and bringing us around for good food. he knew that we love to eat durian, he would prepare lots of durian for us to enjoy although he is one who don't eat durian. he knew that chewing gum is banned in Spore, he would prepare a few boxes of chewing gum to welcome us. during then, he did not have any grandchildren. hence, he treated both my brother and i as his own grandchildren and was always very delighted to see us.

well-respected and well-liked by all his relatives and friends, he treated everyone with great hospitality. he is knowledgeable, witty, smart and humurous and he is able to talk to us about almost everything and anything under the sun. a 100% family man who takes excellent care of his family. he loves his wife, he dotes on his children and grandchildren.. he plans for their future and always ensure that they are given the best. he gives everyone fair treatment and he is never judgemental about anyone. i guess that is one of his unique attribute being a Chinese doctor for over 40 years..

is a pity that he has left us but i know he will always be remembered by his beloved family, relatives, friends for who he is.
