Today is the last day of my grandpa's funeral, it is also the day of his cremation.
Last night, i stayed till 12 midnight for the funeral and chanting and the burning of the paper house, paper car, paper boxes of clothes, paper Boy and girl and tons and tons of paper money. The chanting was divided into 3 session and each lasted long. i heard that in one session, the monks have to chant the 100 pages long chant. So it was kinda long, but all worth it for my grandpa. The burning of the paper stuffs was so grand.
Today, i cried my hearts out loads of times. I started crying halfway when the monk chant the prayer. then when we are required to see our grandpa for the last time when the coffin is being sealed, i cried again. When they moved my grandpa's coffin into the vehicle, and we were suppose to pushed the vehicle for a short distance, i cried again. When we reach the crematorium, and we have the prayer for the last time, i cried again and when we was cremated i cried hard. Esp my mum, my uncle and my grandpa sister, they cried really hard too. How i wish i don't have to go through this again soon or best, ever have to go through it!
I used to think that i was lucky, as i have all 4 grandparents around in the past. Some of my friends have little or close to none. But now my grandpa is gone, i only have 3 grandparents left, and i really don't wish for anything to happen to them. It just seem like last week when all this happened. I don't want to go through it again. I have to thank those friends who were there for me all this time.
Gotta go for french class soon.. M so drained and tired today... ciao...
Glad to know that you still care...
