HH ah.. wah.. abandoned me for american idol.. *sulk* leave me heart broken.. fine .. *siddles up to lz and bats eyelids* " zheeeeeeeeeeeeen..!!!"
This Hope ah.. call me crazy.. wah piang. *grumble*


neway, it's gonna be a week of partings and sad happenings actually.

just found out HH's dog pogo passed away. :(

Just found out that mom's best fren's mother has a malignant cancer of teh bile duct which is gonna snuff out her life eventually..

HH is going back to glasgow,

juz reflected on the number of hearts breaking...

As I jogged in the park juz now, I caught side of a few old people being wheeled along in their wheelchairs. one adopted a catatonic position, another gazed blankly into thin air and the last one was trying to keep up with his caretaker.

Old age, failed love, sickness and death.

I admire the resilience of sentient beings tho' - the ability to love, the ability to find the strength to enjoy wat's left of one's transient life.

For despite all the pain that wrecked his body, pogo passed out of suffering into his next life, surrounded by the ppl he loved most.
For despite the cancer cells spreading like a plague throughout her body, the jaundice and the pain had left her and she had her filial daughter by her side..
For despite the effort of taking each agonising small step, the old uncle was still able to walk out every day to enjoy the fresh air in the park.
For despite the pain that came with parting, they could still cherish the good memories of teh past


I've seen the forms of suffering for myself in one week. Just like the Buddha saw the 3 signs. However, i have not the wisdom to truly comprehend the 4 noble truths. but i can see, that even in your darkess hour, you can always find the will and strength to deal with it and draw happiness from small little things .

I pray for them all, that they will come thru their ordeals and that the Dharma will be their guide.

eh.. no, ling. No. I'm not seduced. :p

heh. well.. Just keep in mind the teaching of impermanence from the Buddha. And that of self and non-self. I guess you would realise that even when one leaves this world physically, he/she/it is still in part of us.. spiritually.

(heh. been reading up stuff on buddhism. :p)
