Too Sudden...

From yesterday night until now, my feeling and mood is not so good.. Feel sad as someone who has taught me before and imparted his wisdom and teachings. He was very young professor died at 41 years old...

It stated in the newspaper, my paper.

NUS PROF DIES AFTER BEING HIT BY TRUCK

A TRUCK hit an engineering professor of the National University of Singapore on Tuesday evening and killed him. Associate Professor Ooi Ban Leong, 41, who was taking his usual walk home from the campus, was then crossing the road at the junction of Commonwealth Avenue West and Clementi Road at 8.30pm He died at the scene from severe head injuries. The truck driver, an unidentified man in his 50s, is helping police with investigations.

One of my gal friends tell me that she has a rather unconventional concept about people dying. All our loved ones and people we know will all die, including ourselves. She guess that is a destination for all of us, no one can escape from it. So, we always have to cherish the treasure those still alive now, because we never know when we are leaving them, or they leaving us. The more valuable a person becomes to us, the more we resist to think that they may leave or die before us; however, for her, the more the person is valuable to her, such as her parents, her sister, and hubby, and her best friend etc, she tend to try to ‘imagine’ their deaths before that day arrives, so that she has spread some grieve along the path. At the same time, that always help us to remember that they may not be around tomorrow, or next minute, so when we understand the kind of sadness we may go through, we will learn to cherish the time with them

When she was small, she always imagined her grandpa dying, because she loved him so much, she would spend most of her school vacation at his house, because she think logically he should die before her mum, so she will rather spend more time with him first. When he really died, she was very sad, but she had never thought that he shouldn’t die, because we all die. she was sad and glad that she felt sad, because we feel sad only because we feel for the people. She still miss him all the time, and glad that we are able to miss someone after he dies, because that goes to shows that she must have many memories with him.
