The clock tower is covered with overgrown plants
Went to Boon Lay Secondary School on 22 August 2008. This is a gift from the graduating class of 1997. The clock was stalled and the whole structure covered, cannot be seen. I had to pushed aside the plants to take the picture and video. It says 一寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴 .
Meaning of the chinese proverb shown on the clock tower
Time is like gold, but no amount of gold can buy time. An inch of time is an inch of gold, but you can't buy that inch of time with an inch of gold.
Time passed cannot be reversed too. Time gone cannot be found again. Dora died about 2 months back. Father died one year back. Jesus came 14 years ago.
Everyday it is a gift to be able to wake up in the morning. We can get to choose what we want to do for the day. Thank God every morning for being able to wake up for another day. Be good and do good to the people around us and our pets. We do not know when we are not going to see them next. Life is so unpredictable, like Dora.
Last sight of Dora at the hospital
Got money also cannot bring back Dora. Got money cannot buy back the lost time. During my working days, I spent hours working, came home and need to cook meals or buy food, do the chores of the house and need to prepare for next day's lessons. Richard spent his time working too. There was hardly time together. No quality time together, but it takes two to tango. We hardly talk to each other. And then one day he just suddenly told me that he knew of another girl!!! I was so surprised and sad and angry that such things happened. I was taken aback by such behaviour and treatment from him.
We know each other for 32 years! In the year 2000 we got separated and he left the house for another woman also. I prayed for family reunion and in the May 2002 he came back. After he knew that I started work, he stopped driving taxi. He took over his aunt's shop business with his sister. That is where everything change...
