Demise of Auntie Xiu Mei

Auntie Xiu Mei has left us. Today is the day that her body is cremated. She's only 48 years old. She's my ex-neighbour's brother's daughter-in-law. Her husband suddenly went missing many years back and she waited for 10 years before she declared her husband dead. Her husband was said to be seen in China. Nobody knows if he's really still alive. Sigh...

Auntie Xiu Mei was a fair lady. She had cancer. When I saw her some time back, I thought that her hair was pretty nice as the hair has nice curls and colour. Only then did I know that she had cancer and her hair was actually a wig.

Mom called me on Friday noon, telling me that Auntie Xiu Mei has passed away. I was shocked then as it's so sudden. Her illness was under control and she was recovering then. Now suddenly she just passed away. I heard from mom that the virus attacked again.

I think she's a capable and strong woman who raised two children up on her own, and having to fight against her own illness. Now that she has gone, leaving 2 teenage daughters. It's quite sad actually, to be orphans at such young age. Hope that she'll be happier in another world, and blessing her two children.

女人翻脸 天使变魔鬼

角色不同，态度就不同。刚谈恋爱时，谁不想把最温柔婉约的那一面端出来给情人看。

就算是情人，对象的不同，也会让一个女人判若两人。

女人也像海底乌贼，会随周遭环境，改变自己的颜色。这是一种无法分析与言喻的神秘学。

Re-Hi

It's been almost a month that I've not been blogging. Not really busy with life, just that I've no mood to blog and don't know what to blog. I didn't know there's actually friends who will bother to come to read this blog of mine. Anyway, it's just some thoughts that I have on everyday life.

I came across this in today's newspapers.

不爱的人走了还是会心痛

相处那么久，虽然不爱，也是一种习惯了放弃习惯， 必然失落。发现原本很爱自己的人，忽然转头就走，或投入别人怀抱，也一定会难过，谁没有比较心呢? 莫非新人比我好，更值得他爱?还是他嫌我哪里不好，只是一直不说?

宽宏大量的人，可以祝福久情人“希望他过得比我好”，却很难祝福“希望他爱她比爱我深”，前者只需仁慈，后者违背人性啊!
