Mid-autumn festival, should be a festive occasion
but i never would have thought i would receive a call that changed my day..
in that morning, i was informed that my dear grandma had passed away..
She had been a very gentle and kind person. Always cared for her children and grandchildren. Never bothered about herself but kept on insisting on home-cooked food for every festivals and even on her own birthdays, she toiled the whole morning to whipped out our favourite dishes. Not once had i heard her saying bad things about others. It's quite a blessing to be able to live up to a ripe age of 70+ years, to be able to see the day of the birth of her great-grandchildren.
Just never thought that she would have to succumb to a disease that tortured her even til the day of her death. Never would have thought that she would become a statistic for cancer mortality rate.
May she rest in peace,
May she reap the fruit of her good deeds,
May she continue her journey in favourable conditions that can lead her to the truth of Dhamma.
