Almost the whole of marketing team went to the wake of our HR manager this afternoon. Her two sons were still so young. The elder boy drew a card and left it on the altar table. It says "i love you mummy, i really do...joy, joy, joy" He seemed to be in denial mode..perhaps his young mind is unable to apprehend whatever was going on in the wake. The verse on one of the blankets was "For i know the plans i have for you..." There was sadness in the air..her dad was tearing while telling us about his daughter. Someone has lost a daughter, a wife, a mother and a friend. Do not know understand God's ways sometimes but i guess we just had to hold on to His promise.
Life is so fragile, in death, nothing else matters. No more happiness, no more sadness, no more frustrations, no more anger etc etc. So it's a good thing not to sweat the small stuff in life because you never know what's going to happen. What do you want your eulogy to be after death? I know it's pointless to care about what others will think after death but the thing is, have you made a difference during your lifetime? Have you reach out to touch lives? Or just busy persuing happiness?
During lunch, Chin Yiang suggested that we do an event for marketing. Like we organise some activities and not just another "eat, drink" session. Ideas like fishing, outward bound, kelong, cycling in Pulau Ubin, beach games etc etc came up. This is such a great idea :) just hope it happens fast to boost morale or rather, just hope it even happens.
Met Lynn for a quick dinner this evening and we went to get a pedicure done at Simei. Oh i love the flower that the lady drew on both my toes..so lovely BUT, i think she did not do a good job in the "skin peeling" department..well you win some and you lose some, it is really good being a woman. At 38 and a mother of two, Lynn still looks like a school girl :p
