Another night reached home late. Thousands of photos waiting for editing since I came back from recent Europe prewedding trip while I am busy running here and there especially this entire week….
Two weeks Company business trip in Seoul, Korea this coming December which need my preparation to kick start soon,team manpower arrangement, interviewing replacement staff, rushing for team year end target achievement and last check, Dad admitted hospital for kidney removal surgery,visiting him after work daily and lunch time, handling housing loan application for new house, retrieving all relevant documents, communicating with bankers via phones and emails, all these are coming in all at once…..
At hospital, looking at my dad while he was asleep after the operation on Monday, at the age of 63, the trace of life appearing all over his face and leave down all the marks…..he is getting older each day.. and I am still unable to provide him a worried free retirement life….he still need to work on his business for family monthly expenses.. carrying boxes of books and delivery himself to all his clients … what am I doing? as eldest son in the family, I fail… I fail to let my parent enjoying their retirement life, I fail to let them worry free on family issues…. that is why, no matter how, I must purchase the landed property and get my loan application approved, to fulfill one of my parent wishes since the day they forced to sell their house years back………,
all of the sudden, I miss my childhood where all we need to worried is study hard and play hard…world was that simple…yes, world was that simple in my childhood…
On my desktop now, preparing for another official posting on a recent pregnancy photo session and trash the dress session in Taiping while came across this photo..a photo taken during trash the dress session in Taiping . I dont know how you will see this photos… but to me, it tells me, there is hope at the end of the path. .. well, think no further, waste no time….night still young, time to resume my photos editing……Lets do it!

haseo - u can do it, bro! i’m also the eldest son yet i can’t help my family much. All the best to the eldest son, bro. :))
Kay Nny - Hi Edwin,
Don’t think so much and I am sure everything will be fine. Hope your daddy get well soon. I totally understand how you feel and what you need to go through as I believe most of the eldest in the family would take the responsibilities of the family.
All the best to the eldest daughter too!!
Cheer up my friend and you are doing well now! Never give up!
niel - i believe that 船到橋頭自然直, or just like what you’ve mentioned in the post, there will be hope at the end of the path. when God closes one of your doors, he’ll open a new window for you.
take care, and stay strong!
Lee Tit Kun - Hi,
How are you?
Hope that everyting will get smooth to you very soon and please don’t worry too much. I think you family members are noticed your achievement mostly in heart but not in mouth. So, be cheer up. At this moment, I think you need to be happy rather that sad because everything is good from your side such as dad operation is successful, gonna move into a new landed house, got so much projects in hand…
So, dont woory, be happy.
Take care,
Tit Kun
