Everything nice must come to an end.
My daughter had come home after her semester exam for a 6 week holidays.
We had enjoyed meals and feasts together, outings and visiting together, shopping and cooking together, talking and laughing together, and many more....
But the time had come for her to leave home, to take a flight from Kuching to Kuala Lumpur to further her studies.
It was with great sadness to let her go, but we wouldn't stop her from chasing after her dreams.
After all, in another 6 week time, she would be back home again for her Chinese New Year holidays.
Then in another few months time, her long semester holidays....
*******
Every stage of our life is full of exciting, surprising, happy and even challenging events....
And now we are beholding our fast growing children...
Wasn't it just yesterday that they were still in our arms, so delicate and helpless, wailing only for our attention?
.............................
We sent her to the airport.
Everyone was rather quiet today....
The time for living together had come to an end....
Our eldest daughter is flying over the South China Sea to further her study in a prestigious university.
In a week time, another flight for my son to his college.
For myself and my youngest daughter, we will be back to school.
And my lovely wife will be at home alone, overseeing everything and keeping in touch with everybody every now and then....
And that's life.
Whether we like it or not, time waits for no one!
And the best time to start is now, when we are filled with zeal, enthusiasm, and energy to do what is ours to do.
Fly, my children, and fly high...
Stay safe and come home to us when the job is done....
