Death

Got the news yesterday afternoon that my mom's second brother passed away at 3 p.m. I would have long to be at home at such a time, but my things here are not finish and I've bought the ticket on 26/8. Ah~~

It never occur to me that I'd receive such a news at such a time.
But frankly I wasn't shocked to hear such a news. We all know that where there is a beginning, there is an end. Where there is life, there is death. Life on this earth is but a short period. Yet it is during this period that we determine where our eternal spirit goes to when we are no longer here.

Death, I've seen quite a lot within this month alone, and will be seeing many more in the years to come. Though death is no surprise for me, yet my heart hurts seeing many people uncertain of where they'll be should calamity befalls. What is there to be done about it?

" Am I cold-hearted and cruel?" This is a question I've been asking myself. I don't think I am. Yet why am I not in deep sorrow when my uncle who stays one street down from me pass away?
I do not have an exact answer. Perhaps deep within me I have this little assurance that I'll be seeing him again.
