About Me

My photo
Just the blunt and honest me. Just someone who needs to air her inner most feelings and thoughts. Just a female who suffers from a crazy life journey, with lots of ups and down in her life. Just another moronic human being who wishes for peace and serenity in life one day.

49th Day After Her Death

The Chinese believes that one's spirit would be gone from the human dimension 49 days after his/her death. This Friday, 27 Jan 2012, marks the 49th day after my grandmother's death. It would believed that her spirit would 'realize' that she is dead and no longer part of the human world, thus, she would ascend to the spiritual world to continue her journey from there on...
To mark that day, I would wish to dedicate this lyrics to my grandmother and wish her happiness in her final spiritual world:

"In the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there"

Dearest granny, I have mourned your death for these 49 days and you will always be dearly missed by me... I hope that if there is such thing called reincarnation, I would like to share some form of fate to be related with you again: be it your grand-daughter, daughter or even your mother...
I pray you found peace and joy this lifetime knowing that I have loved you and cherished you for being my grandmother... Thank you for sharing your life with me and being there for me when the rest of world did despised me and condemned me thinking I wouldn't make it 'big' when I was younger. I hope I had made you proud that I became someone 'useful' to the society and even cared for you in your last few months of your life...
阿嬷, 一路走好, 下辈子再见。
