Last Thursday, I went round with Mr SK Lim on our normal safety inspection. This Monday (20 June) I received a call from one of the staff informing me that Mr Lim has passed away. He was 42.
It came as a shock to everyone. He was still young, had no medical conditions and was a likeable person. Went to his wake the same day. Spoke to his son (in 1st year poly) and his wife. From them, I learnt that he had complained of pains in his chest and back, but had not time to see a doctor. He had an appointment on Sat, but he passed away before Sat could come.
Time for reflection - time and tide waits for no man. We are so busy with work that we don't even have time for ourselves, family or God. We think we are indispensable. But the moment we are gone, the company will get a replacement. They may miss us for a while, but life goes on.
Spare a thought for yourself. Take a vacation with your loved ones. Time gone will not return.
