尘归尘,土归土。heard fr mum last nite tt when they went to pick my ah gong's bone for cremation due to d road expansion at bukit brown, they couldn't find anything except 2+ nails and think a pair of socks. no coffin, nothing else. even d stone, gem or watever tt they said is inside my ah gong's mouth has also disappear. y did i say 2+ nails. accordin to my parents, they said tt 1 of d nails seemed to be 'meltin off'.
previously, when my ah ma's bone is being picked for cremation, i was told that 'kid' shouldn't go when i wasn't a kid but i noe they mean our generation. however, my cousins went. dis time, i'm forbidden to go cos of d plannin of marriage at d end of d year. actually, accordin to d tradition, shouldn't even have such event but no choice as government wants the land. otherwise, we are also not suppose to shift my ah gong out cos he still got ancestors around d area. so unless his ancestors had all been shifted, otherwise he cant b though we did bought a place in the temple for him. so though i may seemed to b jokin but i'm serious tt i feel that aft being separated for so long, i felt tt mayb my ah gong wants to be nearer to his wife. he passed away since my dad is ard 10 or 10+ wor so it's been decades. but now that my parents said they cant find his bones, etc, i'm not sure wat is the situation. has my ah gong reincarnate? i hope he does since his physical being had already gone back to nature.
but everytime i pass by bukit brown through lornie rd, i always miss d place whr i visited my ah gong every yr esp aft i gotta noe he will b removed fr thr though my great grandpa & great great grandparents are still thr. actually in recent yrs, i do have d chance to visit d place more than once a yr cos we went for d halloween event thr & though i cant venture out to pay my respect, i can still b able to 'see' whr my ah gong's grave r fr d road we passed through so i could still look over & pray in my heart. thus, i will really miss whr he would be. though i nvr see him in person b4, he will b missed & i will still pray for his well-being wherever he is now.
