It has been two weeks since my dad’s passing, things has been relatively quiet. After my dad’s cremation at zi-du-an temple, his remains was housed in the temple at 5th storey among with many others (remain). As part of the chinese custodiary for funeral , I was supposed to visit my dad alter at the temple for the 3 inportant dates ( 頭七-18/11),尾七-30/11 and 100 days which falls on 19/02/2019). My relatives indicated that they wont be going , thus only myself going then.


On The 18 Nov. I went to the temple around 1pm. The place was relatively quiet with only a few visitor ( probably most people would have chosen to visit in the morning ) , I had bought a simple set of lunch , 4 oranges and a cup of coffee. I didn’t bring any Huat kuay (發溔) as I don’t need to get rich bah. I stayed in the area for 20 minutes so that my father (soul) may be able to “eat” the food. But the moment I was away for 5 minutes , all the wild birds came to eat the food instead.


For my dad house, I haven’t heard of any letter from the HDB, so I called them last week, I was told to find a lawyer in regardless if my father have written any will. I called the Laywer ( at jurong east ) , they adviced me to go to my father house to see if there is any hard copy of the will. Since my father’s safe is locked and I cant open it , I need to find a locksmith to do so.
As for his garang guni stuff, I should strive to sell them in this two weeks . I have gather and sold some 70kg of old stuff ( to make 25 dollars). But the things that need to be sold is much more then that, I would have to make a few more trips instead. For the next two week , I should strive to clean up the house a bit. Looking forward , a complete cleanup would probably take months.
For other matters, although my dad left behind some cash , I would not be spending them so soon. I would be keeping for a while, and when things settle down soon , I may just donate the money for some charitable cause and pray that it do help my dad in heaven.
I should stop here for here , 和自已說,不會談戀愛的,一個人還是很開心的,
GOD bless all the time 慧台
