Life.
Taken on April 16, 2010, Stacy's 20-day-old.
Too many things happened in the last few weeks. It's been one hell of a life lesson. First it's Hoi's sudden brain tumor together with Kanas's labor. So tough for the new dad and mom. Then came the news that Ricky, one of Kit's good friend, passed away after a heart attack while working in his own office in Mainland China 2 days ago.
I've met Ricky a few times. A very nice guy. Got a son who is not yet 2 years old. Kit said Ricky and his wife had been longing for this kid for many years and finally their prayers got answered. Also, Ricky had started his own business back a few years ago and recently his business started to go on track. Though he's not been a close friend to Kit, Kit said he's been a very good business partner, very supportive and they enjoyed working together to sort things out. Sometimes it's not easy to understand why God would take away one's life during the happiest moment in one's life.
Luckily Stacy the new born is so healthy and adorable and her dad, Hoi, is recovering, with mom Kanas working hard to get used to her new life. May this little angel in their lives bring along blessings. And blessed be the mom-and-dad-to-be, my other best friend Rebecca and Soso, as well.
Two lives granted and 1 taken away from my life in 20 days. Gain or loss? In a mathematical sense it's a gain, I guess. But it's definitely a loss, I know.
