Uncle, we really missed you

A beautiful, caring & soft-hearted son to his mother, husband to his lovable wife, father to 3 smart and talented kids, uncle to his naughty nieces and nephews, teacher to his many many students, leader to his resident commity & friend to his networkings.
A life watered by the tears of tragedy and suffering often becomes the most fertile soil for spiritual growth.
So often it seems that life is only made up of things to worry about. Life has many disappointments for all of us. Death, illnesses, betrayals, tragedies and feeling of worthlessness and despair. Sometimes life can seem so very grim and so many times we tend to wallow in pools of self-pity.
I would just like to say again that i believe our time here on earth gives us the opportunity to grow spiritually.
To the family of my late uncle, my aunt & little cousins, i do hope you're able to realize that even though things look cloudy right now, they'll get better soon. Just remember that it takes rain to make rainbows, lemons to make lemonades and sometimes it takes difficulties to make us stronger and better people. If you hang in there, you'll see that the sun will shine again soon. Insya'allah. You'll see.
Thank you to all SGH doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers for their countless support, gratitude and condolences. Will be very much appreciated. May peace be upon you all. Amen.
Can't help but to post this entry with tears...
