14th Jul 07 - Mum, 11am, the Big Uncle hearse moved out to Bright Hill for the cremation. I understand from cousin Chai that its Uncle's wish that his ash to be thrown out to sea. I am sure it takes Uncle a lot of courage to spell out his wishes knowing his time is near...
The cycle of our life...birth and death..
We rejoiced at the welcoming of new born...We repulse at the demise of our loved ones.. Its a stage of our lives that we have to walk this path, the important thing is - how aware are we in our surrounding circumstances?
When I looked at Uncle's body lying in the coffin, I asked myself, how did he feel when he told his children that he wants his ash to be return to Mother Nature at that moment when he was conscious.
The clock ticks and catching his last essence of breath, he left......
