Circle of Life



Now that everything has settled back to some form of normalcy, I feel that I can blog about it without having to worry about overwhelming emotions. My Grandma passed away on the 13th of this month. Well, as some of you might have known, she was not in good health anyway and I have since been mentally prepared for such a day to arrive.

The interesting thing is, no matter how I prepared myself for it, reality can really hit you hard. I guess for a person like me who have spend a good 1/3 of my life with my grandma, living with her, sleeping beside her and such bonds are hard to ignore, especially when one end of the bond had come to pass.

Life is always contradicting isn’t it, when she was ill, I really hope that she could just pass on as soon as possible to end her suffering (luckily, she wasn’t suffering a lot, but we are suffering to see her like that), yet, when she really did move on, I wasn’t happy, it feels more like a huge chunk of me is gone for good.

Well, there are always memories but I try not to think about them, cos that will make me unhappy again. I guess the KL trip was a good escape, even though I think shopping is a very stressful and tiring event ( I HATE shopping…so there)…

Anyway, Life always comes with death, which is something all of us cannot escape from. We have to face it sooner or later in life.

Thanks piggy.
