Mersing Trip - October 2008

I made this trip without the knowledge of my parents. Maybe you think it's not proper not to let them know. But my sixth sense tells me that certain things need to be done quietly. There is no need to make a hoo-ha about it. Not that my parents would stop me from making the trip... but maybe I just don't want to make them worry. Yea, the roads from Kluang to Mersing can be dangerous for drivers that does not have enough rest, patience and experience driving on narrow winding roads.

Will update further on the happenings and highlight of the trip. At this moment of time, let me say that my eyes welled up when I saw her upon reaching Mersing... sigh...I have been crying for quite a number of times within a short span of roughly 3 months over different issues than for the last 10 years in total!!!

The passing away of my 'great' grandfather

Exactly a year ago when we quietly visited my grandfather in Mersing, he is still healthy and strong. Although he is diagnosed with liver cancer then, he is still very positive with his life. That shows how strong is his faith in the Lord. The passing away of him, while does not come as a surprised, does shock me to a certain degree. I love him dearly, but just couldn't understand why I wasn't particularly sad. I shed not a single drop of tear throughout the whole proceedings, sigh...
