Sombre

Past few days were not very good days for me... trashing within me torrents of emotions that i was not able to handle nor manage resulted in a very very frustrated me.
Mood swings happened like never before and i must say, i do not really liked myself in such a state.

Today was especially bad even though i felt better than yesterday, better than friday, however bad things sometimes really come in pairs.
I received a call to inform me of the passing away of an ex-colleague of mine which was so sudden that even the family found it hard to accept.
I was sad... but tears failed me, not because we are not close, but because i asked myself why did i not call her earlier to talk with her when the thought came to me last week. She was a very nice lady, very nice to everyone around her, jovial and happy-go-lucky. A very grateful person, speaks highly of me just because i helped her with little things that is not a big chore to me. She is well loved by the way her siblings speaks of her, her children tearing as they talked about their mother, long time friends who turned up with eyes filled with tears simply because of the sudden passing.

Im reminded once again to be thankful of the people God placed in my life whom i call family and friends. I never know when its time to say goodbye. A sombre lesson of life.

Mrs Ang, I will miss you for your love and kindness to me when i was working with you. I will miss your laughter and childlikeness that i see always in you.
