Chim Po,When I was little, I remembered you would give us chocolates whenever you returned from Australia. Those chocolates were my favorites! You were always so graceful and gentle whenever I went over to your house.
One day, you took me and my mom to the Buddhist temple in Phor Tay High School. That was the first time I noticed the differences between the simplicity of Buddhism prayers vs. the traditional Taoism prayers. I was super curious and asked a lot of questions. You patiently explained and made it comprehensible for a 9/10 year old kid. Thank you for your initial introduction, I continued to explore Buddhism philosophy and study after I lost my mom. I soon realized all things are impermanence in this world and understand the path to end all sufferings. You were one of the most respected grand aunt in my family. My late dad had always enjoyed conversation with you whenever he brought durians over to York Road.
You will be missed. May you attain Nibbana soon.
With love,Swee Hoon
