Red Poppy (Remembrance/Memorial) Day 2010

If I am asked about the milestones in my life, I think it would be broken into 5 phases... Education, Career, Migration, Health Issues & Family... and if I am asked which is the most important to me, it will always be Family & Health... it took me a full circle to come back to this... 


This year has been the worst period of my life... I lost my brother and also a good friend... I made the difficult decision to move back to the land of my birth... coz this is where my family and loved ones are... but I will always miss my little brother... I can't bear to be away from where he is... coz' I don't want him to think he is forgotten... he will never be...


2 years ago today, I had my last bday lunch with my brother at Rizqun... I never thought that it would be the last birthday I shared with him... I miss him terribly and today, its especially more... regrets that we never put much emphasis on birthdays and festivals... 


Although am not supposed to mourn coz I am older but it does not feel right to be celebrating or doing anything festive... it will be a while I suppose before it will feel right... just wish I had done more when he was around... P. Ramlee's "Di mana Ku Cari Ganti" says it all...
