goodbye my friend...

i can't imagine how some would feel at the moment.

do they share my feeling of shock, sadness and speechlessness?

i know tears were shed most definitely.

i heard the news today in the afternoon that Chin Tze Hung... or rather more fondly known as Ah Hung by his close friends had passed away yesterday around 4pm in a car accident in Sabah.

my condolences to his family. he died at the age of 29.

at an age where numerous possibilities would have happened, he was taken away by an accident.

i don't know how to feel or describe what it is to me.

i didn't know him that well compared to some. But for the much that I do know, I always remembered him as the one who always smiles, the one who is always kind, and caring. I remember him being a good "heng tai" (brother) to one of my good friends. I remember him being a gentleman. The rare lunches that i did go out in college with him and my other coursemates, I remembered him being polite and funny.

Ah Hung, i am certain you left us with more than just these memories. I thank you that for those brief moments that I did have contact with you, you made life brighter for the person you are.

there are lingering questions in my mind.

did he know Him? did he get in touch with Him?

where is he now?

at one point, my reason screams at me to refrain from pondering on these things. it doesn't seem right for me to want to know or scrutinize these details.

i do want to know, and yet i am afraid to know.

but at this moment, i want to take this moment and just remember you, Ah Hung. And if you are able to see this... please read THIS: "you will never leave the hearts of your friends. you have been a blessing to all of us."
