Today morning, i received a very shocking and saddening call from my friend while attending lecture. My colleague cum good friend commited sucide by jumping off the building. he was pronounced dead this morning.
Sigh, i'm really at a loss for words now. I dont know the reason why he did something so foolish, but i know people tend to take extreme measures when they are very depressed, stressed or pressurize. Look, i understand everyone goes through periods of uncertainty and rough patches in life and that is exactly why we are raised up for: to face the challenges of life. After each setbacks, we must move on and braved ourselves for our next encounter with problems. Everyone faces problems, but life's unfair, so some people will have more difficulties to deal with than others, but life isnt so simple so we as humans must know how to adapt with it. Sometimes mood greatly affects people's actions and behavior, and it will cause people to think and act rashly without thinking of the consequences..but c'mon, we all have EQ, we shouldnt think or attempt sucide...people say this is an act of cowardice while others say it's just another way of running away from problems...But i think it's an act of selfishness..why? its true we muz live and fight for ourselves, cause that's the way of survival right? But wad i truely believed is that we live for others as well as for ourselves, because in this world, humans are interdependent on each other...like sometimes ur mood is affected by ur frens; you are willing to fight n sacrifice things for buddies; and like me now, i grieved for the loss of my friend....
But now he's gone, wad the use of mourning over lost hopes...hopes of him being alive...argh!! I'm sorry i wasnt therefor him when he needed, i 'm sorry i couldnt save him from the foolish thoughts, i'm sorry i didnt find the chance to know him better, i'm sorry he died....I can lament and blabber on and on, but seriously what's the freaking use now
I first knew him when i started working as a sales promoter during chinese new year..we had to wear "god of fortune" robes...we would slack around and sit down for a chat..we ate dinner together, we fought for sales together..we went kbox and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves..and his voice sounded so much like lin jun jie.. we ate ice cream at the M cafe at cinileisure...sending u off to palau tekong when u had to serve the army...all these memories still flow vividly in my mind...i cant believe they seem so distant now....i guess i will really miss him..
goodbye to you my trusted friendwe´ve known each other since wewere nine or tentogether we´ve climbed hills and treeslearned of love and abc´sskinned our hearts andskinned our kneesgoodbye my friend it´s hard to diewhen all the birds are singingin the skynow that spring is in the airpretty girls are everywherethink of me and i´ll be therewe had joy we had fun we hadseasons in the sunbut the hills that we climbed werejust seasons out of time
My heartfelt condolences goes out to David Wang Kang Hong family members and relatives. I know everyone's grieving for the loss of a great son to his parents, a great friend to me and a great person as he always was and will be..Though this is one of the dark moment in our life, i plead we find the courage to live on and to live meaningfully..he would have wanted that, yup..
To David: hey i know u wont be around anymore, but i just wanna say thanks for all the joy & great stuff u have given & brought upon me since the day we became friends...I truely regretted not knowing u well enough, so perhaps i could prevent this misfortune...I'm angry u didnt confide ur problems to anyone and recklessly choose to end ur life....I'm sorry i couldnt be present during ur last bdae outing, all the more didnt expect it to be ur last...I guess i'm gonna start remembering everyone's bdae, including yours. I heard you had been very stressed in the army, so now its time for you to knock on heavens door and take a break u were deprived but derserved of...well, you know...i gonna rmb and miss you for many years to come still...i dont wanna stop writing but all good things have to come to an end somehow, just like your journey in life came to an abrupt end....take cares and rest in peace...I 'm truely saddened by your sudden departure, it's my loss...
