15/10/2010 indeed is a sad day to many of us, me and my friends. Our friend, Rebekah Tiong passed away. Born in 1988, died in 2010.
We attended the same church back in our hometown and that's how i knew her. We didn't talk or made any eye contact to each other. We didn't know each other yet that time. She came into my notice when the church informed us about the death of her parents in an accident years ago. That time, I was so shocked about the news. How can she took it? I could never imagine the pain she went through that time. That is how i came to know her. We finally made friends when I joined the school choir club. She was the president that time. She was funny, hyper and she laughed a lot. The atmosphere is always cheerful with her. Despite being the president, she always went easy on us, which made all the member like her. Although I didn't get very close with her, but still I considered her as a friend.
Life is so unpredictable, fragile, cruel and terrifying. So easily, a life has gone. But we do believe that this happen for a reason. God has a better plan for her and that's the reason He called her. Oh Lord, we can never understand Your plan, but we do trust You Lord that Your plan is for our benefits.
Rebekah, your departure had left pain to many of us. Even so, life still have to move on. Your mortal time on Earth will be deeply missed. Although you have only lived a short period of 22 years, these memories that we shared will always be a fragment that we shall never forget. My dear friend, do rest in peace and enjoy your new life up there.
Dear friends, I hope we can take this and not cling to it too much. We shall be happy for her rebirth and also the reunion with her parents and our heavenly Father. Amen.
