Personally, I think this picture is the highlight of my week. Cliché as it's gonna sound, family is everything to me. My father works offshore, and so it is tad difficult for us to always see him around at home. Hari Raya is normally spent with loved ones traditionally asking for forgiveness, dining in the scrumptious treats together, wearing colour coordinating outfits as a family and catching up with other relatives. It has been awhile since we last celebrated as a whole family and thankfully this year, he was able to make it!
Of course! We took our chances and so went visiting during the weekends. We went all round house-hopping from east to west of Singapore. It may sound simple and quite uneventful for some but it really meant a lot for us especially not having to spend quality time as we can. I think sometimes as years passed, I get too caught up with life and tend to take advantage of time and people instead of reminding oneself to stay grounded because life is too damn short even when we don't feel like it is. Even in the happiest/saddest moments, everything could be too late and then there's regret. Probably the last feeling I would want to face before losing a loved one. That being said, family really is everything.
