Grandma

代替

放开你的手 不管等多久
失败是成功之母
我们不怕苦 找得到路

原来思念也有意义 有呼吸 有你
扎根在我的心 像部分身体
再多得风雨 再多不允许
都不阻挡我们在一起

放开你的手 送你到最后
你的泪在我胸口
不管等多久 无所求

I love this soundtrack from the local movie, 881.
The lyrics is well-written & so poetic.

It makes me think of my grandma who had passed away 8+ years old ago. I recall her love for me, her loyalty for me, her faith in me... She had many grandchildren but she never fails to know what we each love to eat. She always cooked my favourite dishes whenever I visited.
She was always standing up for me (against my father & my relatives). She was always telling others that I'm a good child with a good heart. It means a lot to me as I was constantly discriminated against and neglected by my parents.

I recall her last breath at the hospital and her last tear drops as she departs from this world.
My feelings is exactly what's written in this song... "Now I understand the meaning of missing someone... It has breath and it has you... It etched in my heart and forms a part of my body... No matter how heavy the storm is, ... nothing can prevent us from being "together"..."

Though she has gone to a better place, I will never stop thinking of her. I will always love her and remember her till the day I die.

My mom told me last week that she's never neglected me that she loved me even when she had my sister. Therefore, she arranged for my auntie to take care of my sister during the weekdays so that she could focus on me. (I was under 2 years old when my sister was born). To her comment, I smiled politely and didn't elaborate further. She's forgotten the other moments when she and my father hurt my feelings. To be discreet, I will not comment further.

I guess memories linger on but I've moved on with my life - to a loving husband and a loving family which we both worked so hard to build as a team. I will never stop being thankful to God for this second lease in life. I thank MOTH for all his support and his love. He's been the pillar of my life and without him, I would not have been able to journey through the darkest times of my life.

On a lighter note, you can watch the music video here:
