supposedly gg celeb my bday with family, but a bad news came.. The ShiFu of a temple that my mum would always go every friday had passed away with liver cancer. This ShiFu is no ordinary shi fu, but has a close bonding with our family, especially mum.
Dad describes him as a kind of indescribable fate between him n our family. It started off when i wasnt even born. Dad n Mum was dating one day, and happen to pass by this temple n decided to drop by and pray. Den a few days later, they saw shifu by the road, waiting for cab to go another temple, and dad decides to giv him a lift. They become frens after tht. Mum den began to visit this temple every friday, and at there, she together with some other devotees become good frens with this ShiFu. They had occasionally meals to vegetarian restaurants together n even went overseas together. Mum said shifu had given her alot of wise advices, and perhaps its these wise advices tht makes this family so xinfu, so happy.
As for me, i still rem how i tag along with mum every friday to the temple when i was small. I would do my colouring, or read my story book while waiting for my mum to pray finish. Or i would play with the parrots n dogs over there, n the beautiful fireflies makes my day. Shifu would den pat my head, say im a good girl n would treat me sweets after tht =). tht was when i was in kindergarten.
15yrs later, nothing has changed. the kitchen, the mini garden was still there. All except the kind shifu who always joke around even on his brink of death. Such noble person, who devoted himself over 30yrs to buddha, had passed away coz of a scary disease-cancer. Have witness 2 deaths of dear ones in 2 months, Life is precious so take care ppl..
