All soul’s day

I personally do not anticipate the month of November because month of November also marks the death anniversary of my mum. I visited her grave. I used to visit her grave very often and to plant some little flowers for her. Due to the extremely hot & dry weather, I gave up after a few attempts of re-planting.

As usual when approaching All Soul’s Day, people from far & near will pay their visit & respect to their love ones. I wanted to visit my relatives but I could not allocate the location. I felt that the most important is that I should be remembering those memories when the person is alive.

When I looked at mum’s grave, I couldn’t believe that it has been 11 years since her passing. All her memories are still very much alive in me. She’s a great mother and I miss her dearly. I wonder how it will be like if she’s still alive. How my life will be and where I will be. There’s always something to talk and share when she is around and I really miss those moments. I wish dad can be the same but dad is a quiet person and he keeps things to himself sometimes.

It's all about cherishing and remembering back the times when mum is alive. As I looked back at my family album, I felt disappointed that our family pictures taken were not much. Mum do not takes much photos starting 1990, ever since she is not well. I guess it's all about the memories that we had shared that matters and I cherish it dearly.
