A truly INSPIRING video clip

Many thanks to Lena for sharing this inspiring video in Facebook. 


The clip reminds us to think and act like a kid. Well... I guess it's true. We tend to doubt more as we grow older. So, instead of getting braver (or wiser), we become more timid as we grow older (a.k.a we grow more stupid as we aged!!!). 


Timidity is what stop us from achieving our goals and dreams. So, the verdict: STOP growing OLD and think like a KID again!!! Let our original creativity rules! :)

The view of the lake is breath-taking. Both of us put our own backpacks on nearby bench. Dad starts unpacking his Nikon N90 and and setting up the tripod. He's looking good and superb in his red and yellow striped polo-t. He's standing upright with a straight back. Each movements made are agile, speedy and accurate. 

"Well, daddy... How's life been?". 

Pointing at his round tummy, he smiles and says, "It's obvious, right?! Life's pretty good here. I really need to get my butt moving and do more outdoor activities like this to get rid of this freaking barrel of mine."

"I get what you mean, dad. I guess we should really do this more often TOGETHER to BOOST our father and daughter bond! Okla, I promise will make time to some back more often to accompany." I vow in my heart to keep this new promise of mine to dad as the new resolution in my list.

Dad turns and starts snapping away...

"Bang! Bang!"

My neighbor's having a major house renovation. I open my eyes. Only then I realize that the image I've seen previously was merely a dream. Daddy looked so real and solid just now... It actually makes me forget the fact that he's left us for almost 4.5 years (6-May 2006).

Well, I guess the dream serves a reminder to me. It's been quite some time ago since I last visited dad's tomb. Well, I'm sorry dad... But it feels great to know that you are doing very well at the new place. You even picked up photography!!! I also want to do the same liao... :)

Dad... I miss you...

Last Sunday was Father's Day... It's a day where every dad in this world get to celebrate their achievements as the head of the family, as well as the teacher, the protector & don't forget the ATM! I always feel especially excited over this day 'coz I get to choose & buy gifts for my chubby dad again (he loved & treasured every gift I got for him each year!)! But NOT this year... Or in any other years to come...

I can't help myself to feel grieved on Sunday. You will see & hear about why, when, how or what we could do to repay our dad (expressed by all medias: tv, radio, internet) on this special day! Yes, I wanted very much to repay my dad. But how? What else can I do except to present him with a bouquet of flowers? I'll never get to repay him anymore... I really should have done more before his departure...

I still feel sad over Dad's death even though I know very well that he's currently residing in a better place now (in Paradise); with no more signs of tears, blood, sufferings nor torments there... But I really miss him badly...

But today, I felt comforted after my nap:
I had a dream... I dreamt of my daddy. He was sitting there at our kitchen's table, talking cheerfully to me on his new life. He then looked at me with a smile, signaling me to stand & give him a hug. I stood & held him as tight as I could... I pray that this beautiful dream of mine would not end...

I could not hold my tears back any longer when I heard him saying this to me:-

Dad: Do you miss me, my dear?

Me: You know I miss you badly, dad...
You will always be the BEST DAD in in my heart!
I LOVE YOU!

Dad gave me a final smile before the phone rang.

I was stired up from my dream... Dammit! Who's that idiot? Why call at such bad timing? I lost my dad in a blink... ;'(


I never had the chance to say this to him:
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
