to the 5 rowers,rest in peace. i just heard a story about one of the rowers. he was a talented boy, very talented in music. he composed his own piece at the age of 2, and won a music award for his own composition. and he was very close to his family especially the mother. they would message each other every morning. during his ns times, he would talk to his mother, but telling her only the good times he had in camp. i guess he did this because he didnt want his mother to worry about him. he is indeed a very good son. this is the story of reuben.
i was touched when i came to know about this from papa bear. life is really fragile. i feel even more now. i used to see one of the rowers, steven loh in school when he was still training in nie. and earlier this year, nie PE had a camp. we also lost one of our schoolmates. life still carries on for them, but in another world.
mmm... cherish the present because we cant predict whats going to happen in the future.
but how many of us do?
i cant promise that i will really cherish the present, but i will really try to.
