Happiness & Sadness : 22.06.2010

Recap..."another doctor announced the birth of a baby girl, another doctor pronounced the death of the newly born baby girl grandma"...same time, same place... God is Awesome & Great, He took life, then gives another life... We understood that when one person dies, another person lives. We were told that when my cousin was about to be pushed to the Labor Room, my late aunty passed out and never regain consciousness. When both of them were struggling with life, (my late aunty grasping for breath while her unborn grandchild was also grasping for life as her umbilical cord was choking her - distress baby); I believe God or angels must have asked which one of them would live?... and I believe my late aunty must have willingly gave her life to her grand-daughter..that exchanging or transfer of soul from grandma to granddaughter is really Amazing Grace.

Pictures taken...(malam ke 2 ngenyaie niang aunty). Let the pictures speaks for itself.

Lastly, maia uncle Rubin macha kisah niang aunty ba malam nyenggaie sebedau iyO di anjung lemai ari minggu... tu meh jakO serbana di tinggal ke iyO ngagai laki, anakx2, kaban belayan iyO, aku endO ingat minta jakO ke di karang uncle aku nyO.. ke ulih di keingat ke aku... ti salah, minta ampun...."oh wai, laki asi, wai menyadi, anakx2 ke di sayau...nadai ko enggau meh nangka tu meh kitai ulih begulai, nadai agik meh aku beserempu makai, begagai, betundie, belagu, betanda enggau kita wai menyadi...Ukai kedeka aku, tang ti udah datai jangka, baka jam udah sain mati...ka pan enda aku ngejang pegi ninggal ke kita wai madi, wai asi, anakx2....begadaix2 meh aku ngitih ke singkang ke bala aki, inik, apai, indai, menyadi, kaban belayan ke udah dulu lesi bebadi... kita ke di tinggal ke aku, anang enda ingat ke jako pesan aku..udah tu nadai agik aku ngajar kita, anang enda kuat migai pengarap, pengarap kitai Christian awak ke kitai ulih idup senang di dunia injau tu...mupOk meh aku waix2 asi, laki asi, anakx2 asi, menyadix2 asi, ilO kitai betemu baru ba menua Batang Mandai, menua Sebayan ko sida Keling, Kumang; menua Syurga begulai enggau Tuhan selama-lama iya"...the message here..it is so sad to bade Goodbye Forever to all her loved ones. Yes, she will definitely be missed by her lovely daughters, son, grandchildren and all her relatives & friends....on the other hand, we as family, relatives are happy with the birth of late aunty's youngest grandchildren; congratulations to Florence (late aunty's eldest child) and hubby on the birth of baby Faith. This is what we call "happiness & sadness"...Facts of Life!

Rest in peace my dear aunty....in Jesus name. Amen.

Speechless!

..last Saturday, sibukx2 ngiga Souvenir for GOH for Malam Pepaduan PRS, Miri... selesai pengawa on my way home, tibax2 I rec'd sms ari one of DAM committee member (Sandra RS) madah ke aku that bini Cr Dr Nuing Jeluing passed away, road accident along coastal road Miri/Bintulu nearing Bekenu. Aku benong driving, am speechless OMG ko dlm ati...penuh enggau tanda tanya, why and how??.. Mulai ke penginat aku enggau late Linda, I always met her in church, but the first time I really sit down, talk, laugh and eat with her when our friend Tina welcomed us to her home, May 2009. I remembered her as "sweet, quiet and lovely woman and a friend". seated on the right (white floral blouse and black pants)..file photo
DAM Ngajat Class Graduation, October 2010. Seated 2nd right in white moden kebaya.

the last time I talked to her was went she joined DAM Ngajat Class sometimes in August 2010, she said "it's so difficult to learnt ngajat at this age, bones are stiffed", nya ku nyaut iya... don't worry aunty, you can do it, just need more practices.. she smiled and continue to follow the ngajat steps seriously... after that I do encounter with her in town, church and social function, we just smiled and say hello. Never get the chance to be really close with her, as I find her a "reserved kind of person", with a good heart for sure.

Death is certain, but we human never plan how and when we should leave the world one day... but what we can do is to prepare ourselves spiritually because one day we are going to face our Lord Jesus... My heartfelt sympathy and deepest condolence to Cr Dr Nuing Jeluing and children on a sudden demise of their beloved wife and mother. May the good Lord gives comfort and strength to the late family of Madam Linda Nichol Nuing who mourn her loss.

Rest in peace Madam Linda Nichol Nuing.. as God had promised to give a share in his eternal kingdom. Amen.

Bad News

Lemai 18 Jan.. rec'd sms ari childhood friend from Seria, Brunei..madah ex-classmates aku udah nadai pagi 18 Jan, died of cancer... sinu ngenang laban udah ku pulai ke S'wak alo nadai kala betemu, nadai kala ninga rita niang kawan aku ke bernama Normegawati Yahya... Could not find my photo with her, photo during our school days and she did gave me one photo of herself as remembrance... sinu ngenang bala kaban udah dulu nadai... asai enda caya, but it's fact of life. She's 2 years younger than me. Semina ulih berdoa, semoga roh nya berada di sisi orangx2 yang beriman. Amin.

Malam 23 Jan.. rec'd another bad news, rec'd sms from my cousin @ Tinting Lalang, LA madah inik menyadi niang aki ke ngada ke mak aku udah nadai kol 9 malam. The last time aku betemu enggau iya Gawai 2009... she died peacefully at home at the ripe age of 100++.. she was the only one left from my mom's side who was still alive, all my aki and inik have passed away long time ago.. Nama niang inik aku tu meh di angkat ke anak dara aku...Ti iya meda anak dara aku, gaga amai iya meda.. "amang" ko iya ngangau ke anak dara ku nya... anak indu aku nya meh terubah ngangkat ke nama iya Rini... udah anak aku, bisi two niece sama ngangkat ke nama inik nya. My daughter Chill was shocked when she heard her great grandma passed away, she was sad, but could not say nothing, I told her just pray for her soul.. she met her great grandma last December 2010. My daughter recalled, her inik looks okay still remember and talked as usual asking for me and the rest of the family members.

Her last piece of advise to me was, "she wanted me to marry a man who can take care and love me forever and reminded me to be a capable wife to my chosen husband"... bedau sempat iya betemu enggau suluati, but I strongly believe she will be happy if she knew who my suluati is because he got all she wanted me to have in a husband... May her wish and prayer for me to find true happiness with my loved one come true. Will miss my grandma..., nadai agik orang di tundie aku, she always can tell if I come to visit her, I'm known to her as her cheerful uchu, who always makes her laugh.

I hope I can live long.. a ripe age of 100++ years old

May our precious Lord Jesus forgive all my grandma's sin while she was still alive and pray that her soul rest in peace with all the holy ones as God had promised to give a share in His Eternal Kingdom..Amen.

21st Anniversary In Loving Memory : 7.1.2011

21st years, my beloved abak left us without saying a word to us... I didn't get to nurse him as he died of stroke, and my family was not at his bedside when he breathed his last breath... his body arrived early then us, because at that time the road was not as smooth as today... Just imagine, dying all alone, we were all in Miri then.... each time I remember this day (7th January) it hurts and saddened me... Sadly missed by my mom, brothers and sister, relatives and friends who knew him; only his memories will always lingers among us... there's no word to express how much I missed my beloved abak.. since born till he passed away peacefully, he never scolded me... where can I find such a dearest dad in this world?? He died when at the age of 62, 6 years after he retired from Brunei Shell Petroleum.

I pray that our Lord Jesus will forgive all his trespasses while he was still on earth and May his soul rests in peace with all the holy ones. Thank you Jesus for giving me such a loving and wonderful biological father. Amen.

Heartfelt Condolence to Wai KS & Family : 30.11.2010

Datai ku pagi ba office, nerima MSN ari kaban aku Wendy G, lalu nanya "bisi ninga berita malam tadi? Nadai ko aku... nama utai?" Bisi berita enda manah ko iya... indai Helen @ KS nadai dini pagi tadi kol 2:30 pagi. Endaiiii ko aku kasih amai, udah ga wai KS benong ba KK on official trip, department sida bisi “Away-Day” ba KK; kira nadai meda indai iya madam ke last breath meh tudah tuai, ukai main KS siru amai enggau indai iya tu, lebih agik benong indai iya ke sakit ari bulan 10 ti enda silap aku. Kuang kuwit seduai madi iya Umang nyaga indai iya ba sepital.. KS nyau meh rujut peda aku sekumbang indai iya ke sakit. Kira kol 9 pagi, aku enggau bala kaban kerja bisi ngagai rumah KS, meri condolence lalu mantai penyinu ati kami ngagai wai KS sebilik. Nadai sempat ngambik gambar laban suasana cukup sinu, aku agik meh kesal ati, ukai tau nerima berita pemati ko kitai, nya meh enda ulih nyabak.

" In good or bad times, we cry and laugh together, that's the spirit of a true Friend". (tu aja meh gambar ulih di ambik aku ba rumah wai KS pagi tadi)

Sinu cukup sinu meh ti ingat ke pemati orang ke disayau ke kitai lebih agik ti apai indai kitai nadai. Ukai ulih di beli, di ganti.... tang kitai mensia sigi temu nadai ke bukai ga, bilax2 masa ga kitai di kangau ke Tuhan pulai, nya meh kitai ke agik idup tu anang enda nyedia ke diri, ari sigi semengat kitai, ti kitai udah cukup sedia, semengat kitai cukup intu enggau pengerindu kitai enggau Tuhan, kitai tetap sedia bilax2 masa aja pulai ngagai Tuhan begulai enggau iya ba syurga selama-lama iya!

Gambar tu di ambik aku ari blog KS maia iya ngintu ari pengada indai iya ke 82 taun, 22hb bulan tu tadi..

Don't forget to show your love towards those who are still alive today, once they are gone, we will miss them greatly as years pass by, we long to hear their voice, their touch, their smile, their laughter, their jokes; sweet memories with them will continue to linger with us forever... while we still live learnt to love and forgive one another because noone can tell what's going to happen tomorrow. Treasure every moment with those we loved especially our parents, children, spouse and friends.

Besides the bad news in KS family, bisi ga berita manah, anak dara iya Beb bulih lumbor satu dalam pekit “Healthy Teeth and Beautiful Smile”, amai iya jarang senyum peda aku, tapi ti iya udah senyum amai cantik, she deserved it, ketawa niang inik ninga uchu iya tu bulih lumbor satu ko tusoi Rose P tadi ngagai kami.

Peda kita pemanah senyum anak dara KS.. ni enda bulih lumbor satu. Sapa mummy iya, ex-Kumang 1980's ko kitai... "kemana tumpah nya kuah ti enda ke nasi"?

Nuju wai KS, minta nn bersabar napi penguji dalam pengidup ba taun 2010, tanda Tuhan sayau ke anak iya kitai di beri iya penguji dalam idup, ukai madah nn enda sayau ke indai nuan, you have done your best my dear, I’m sure deep down your mum’s heart, she’s delighted and blessed to have a daughter like you who cares and love her dearly, you have done your part as a daughter to her. I believe she died peacefully knowing all her children and grandchildren are doing well in life. May her soul rest in peace. I pray that our Heavenly Father gives comfort and love to you and those who mourn the loss of your beloved mother/grandmother.
May our Lord Jesus Christ blessings, love and peace be upon Helen and her beloved family from this day onwards. Amen.

Pemati kitai mensia enda baka pemati matari.. 05.10.2010

Gambar di atas tu, ba rumah cousin aku maia nyengaie niang Jay (nephew aku) malam ari 5hb Oktober 2010 ba Pujut 1.

Ti baka pemati matari nyamai amai kitai mensia; malam ari kitai petang tegayam, siang ari kitai terang pegari gasak ke pancar mata panas. Dalam minggu tu.. nerima 3 berita pemati... orang ke mati nya orang ke di kelala aku ari kelia, maia agik diau ba menua Seria, Bahunai. Terubah aku nerima berita pemati.. pagi 5hb Oktober, sms ari cousin aku (DJ), madah ke anak cousin (Mak Atin) nadai lemai kemarik (4hb Oktober).

Lemai 6 Oktober, nerima siti da berita pemati ari kaban lama, iya madah ke aku ba wall Facebook aku, madah ke Joe Mok passed away yesterday (5hb Oktober).. the cause of death unknown?? Pu nama nyau mati mengejut magang ko dlm ati aku din..

Takut amai kami ke indai iya suba... Sida tu bisi 7 iti bangsa.. mixed blood. Aku ka amai meda adik iya Amy Mok.. bajik, tinggi, active dlm sports. May his (Joe Mok) soul rest in peace.

Kena ku nutup berita pemati tu, aram kitai samax2 merati ke verse ba Romans 8:35, 38, 39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? For I am convinced that neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

My prayers to those who mourn the loss of their loved ones.
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you with sadness in my heart. My close family member and friends who had lost their loved ones, give them your strength. Help them Lord, to overcome their grief and despair. Help them to walk through this process without giving in to despair. Give them the strength to praise You even though they may not feel like it. Your joy is their strength, Your comfort sustains them, Your peace keeps their soul from anguish. You are their hope and their victory. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Always be thankful that we are still alive and healthy. May God continue to bless us all. Amen.

Will be missed by many, such a good & cheerful "tokey"!!

Shocking news, when I came to the office early Monday morning (13th Sept), my colleague NA told me... "nemu dik tokey Wong udah nadai? aku alo nyaut NA, endaiii nama pemarai iya? Self-accident", aku alo reranggap, dalam ati asai ke bula.....sepagi-pagi nya begau kami ba office ngenang tudah tokey Wong ke manah enggau semua orang, ngagai Cafeteria bisi ga orang berandau ke iya, sampai omputiss pan bisi nyebut nama tudah tuai.. munyi ko wai Sebugey semua orang bisi sida empu own memories enggau tokey Wong tu, so do I.

Aku ngelala tokey Wong tu lama udah, ti enda salah ingat aku suba iya kala nyual nasi bungkus ngagai opis ke opis ba Shell, ngena kereta putih tudah tuai suba.. laban selalu ngudar ba iya. Tiap kali aku ngagai kedai kupi iya, kami segeng... nadai kala miss iya duduk enggau kami, ngerandau kami, ni ke di belanja iya ngirup kupi...ti berandau enggau kami sebuat nadai kala censored randau kami enggau iya... sebut aja, porch duit tudah tuai abis meh di gama bala kaban ke manchal agik... macamx2 cerita ti ingat ke tokey Wong nya.; semua rahsia iya di padah iya ngagai kami, siti jako iya ngagai bala kami..."amoi cantik" aku sigi di kangau ke iya "amoi cantik & sexy" nadai kala missed!! Maia iya meda aku enggau "laling" aku, alo nyeling mata tudah tuai, udah iya meda aku enggau laling, tiap kali aku kia di kangau ke iya "ooo bini olang" hehehehe Last time aku ngagai kedai kupi was end of August, nya iya meda aku enggau anak bujang aku ke lumbor 2..."wah, sudah besar anak kamu, mesti masih muda kamu kuat....". (malas ka nyambung, ukai kala censored ma berandau enggau aku ataupun gengx2 aku ke selalu kia); ti iya meda aku kediri, selalu iya nanya ke geng aku ke bukai baka sida Elsie, Rose & Carol, kami 4 ke selalu betundie enggau iya.

Each time he greets his customer a smile on his face, ti bala pekerja lubah nganjung ai kupi, bubur, mee, nyawa iya aja di dinga merak bala pekerja laban iya enggai customer ngantik lama, cukup pandai, nemu amai iya ngambik ati customers enda ngira regular or baru, aruh meh iya very popular among tokeyx2 ke ba Lutong diak, laban cukup manah enggau semua orang ke udah ngirup ba kedai kupi iya, sebelah malam iya bisi muka restaurant, nadai nemu lelak tudah tuai ngelayan customers enda ngira siang enggau malam, di tambah enggau lauk di sumai ba restaurant iya cukup sedapx2!! Bala anakx2 aku nyau ka tiap ari makai ba kedai iya.. sinu sida ninga aku madah tokey Wong udah nadai, "amai kah mummy ko anak aku ke tuai, laban iya ke selalu makai diak, muji tokey Wong manah amai enggau iya & his friends"...Niang Wong tu mensia ke cukup manah ati enggau semua orang, ke temu aku iya bisi involve enggau politics ari iya enggau politics iya maioh ngelala bala menteri ko iya, iya pan bisi enggau Persatuan Lion club, selalu meh tudah tuai menderma orang ke susah, tasah.. iya empu kala cerita enggau aku. (leboh maia iya berandau serious nya). I will always remember him and I believe those who have known the late tokey Wong will keep the fond memories of him with us. Gambar tu di ambik aku ari album wai Sebugey, kena kitai ngeingat ke niang tokey Wong.. iya sigi rindu meda orang indu bebajik enda heran iya popular amai enggau bala orang indu...sayau umur tudah tuai pandak amai!! Will be missed by many, such a good & cheerful tokey!

My heartfelt sympathy and deepest condolence to Mrs Wong & children who mourn the loss of a beloved husband and father. May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
