Love Is Beyond Boundaries. We heard of this, yet not many would be fortunate enough to experience the truth in love. As I'm sharing, I'm dedicating this post to my beloved grand-uncle who passed on 2days earlier. It was undoubtly LOVE, and to have her as his wife was the happiest day in his life. He would always remember the day and time he fetched her from her home on their wedding day; which was lunar 20th Dec @ 6.30am. And he chose that very day and time (their wedding anniversary) to depart too. Before he breathed his very last, he said things to try to make her forget him when he was gone. His son tried to revive him, but he had let go. He was a REAL gentleman (he will probably put most men to shame). He was a 'ba-ba', English educated and was soft-spoken. My grand-aunt on the other hand, was a traditional Hokkien lady. We used to ask them how do they communicate with one speaking English and the other speaking Hokkien and Chinese. They just laughed and said they just do. You should see the way they looked at each other even after married for decades. Their eyes were filled with love and undenied understanding.When his son found his diary after his departure, and read out to his mum (my grand-aunt)... that was when we knew why he kept asking what was the time when he was struggling to let go. He wanted to depart on the happiest time of his life. Yes, I'm weeping now while sharing this; with much heartaches and grief. As we mourned over the loss of a family member, the world lost a good man. He had battled long with his illness, and I pray he will be in good hands now. May all my good merits be with him, and cultivate a good karma for him. He will be missed. Goodbye, Grand-uncle. Goodbye...
