RIP, DAD!



Dad passed away on the 12th of August 2024 at age 95.  Coincidentally, it was also my maid's birthday.  Before I left for work in the morning, I her given her a red packet for good luck.  I'm so glad that I remembered!

Dad's funeral took place on Thursday the 15th, and his ashes was put to rest in Peck Shan Theng yesterday, the 16th.

In 2001, Dad had the foresight of pre-purchasing two columbarium niche for Mum and himself.  Did you know that the word "columbarium" comes from the Latin word "columba", which means "dovecote" or "nesting place of doves"?

Doves represent new beginnings.  

Death, some believe, is also a new beginning.





不求圆满

人生一定不要太追求圆满  人旺财不旺 财旺人不旺  人财两旺寿不长  所以人生最好的状态就是求缺不求全  而且求全一定要加上委屈这两个字  因为委屈才能求全  所以福不可享尽 留三分给子孙  利不可占尽 舍三分给别人  功不可贪尽 让三分给他人  这也就是所谓的自古人生最忌满  ...
