This is just a follow up on the incident where a VSC died in a
freak accident in Nov last year. For those who are concerned. The
VSC, Ben Hur who died was my friend's very very close relative. Mr
Ben Hur was a very good, responsible man who loved his wife and son
alot. The day after the accident, my friend called me and told me
what had happened. At night we rushed to the funeral.The little boy
was unable to express his sadness so he kept silent(later we found
out he did not want his mum to be worried but he cried every night
into his pillow)How is a boy able to take the pain of losing person
he love so much..Every weekend they would do sports together.
Anyway,back to the funeral. The mother was uncontrollable. I mean,
imagine the man who stuck through thick n thin for 20years, juz
gone.And having 2 see him die in front of you.
On
The scene of the burial is something i will never ever forget. AS
reported, there were alot of police etc attending. When Mr Ben's
coffin was about to be put in the dug hole, his wife (they only
allow her 2 watch from a distance as they knew she would be
incontollable..She was allowed 2 watch the ceremony from a van
while some policewoman held her). She was screaming;''Why u leave
me and baby(the son) and go 1st?Why??''
At that point of time i guessed my perception of life changed. I
felt stupid for crying for breakups, getting sad when cannot get
what i desire etc.What was all that compared 2 what i was
witnessing?
Now, my friend tells me every night before the child sleep, he will
have a conversation with his daddy 1st. A happy picture has been
torn apart. Hope everyone is safe and well. Cherish life
