it doesn't matter how long life is, as long as it has been meaningful.

that was the message that was constantly repeated over and over again during the service at mr yeo's funeral.

if we were to look at our life, how many of us can say that we had really done something meaningful, and that if we were to leave the world tomorrow, we would have no regrets at all?

i wouldn't.

mr yeo's time on earth has been meaningful. how many students had learn a skill or two from him that they will never forget for the rest of thier lives? how many orchestra hav flourished under his guidance? how many performance and concerts had been made succesful at the wave of his baton?

countless.

there isn't a doubt that he had impacted many lives from his teachings. but what impacted people the most was his limitless patience and kindness.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

this was what went thru my mind when i was sitting there at the service.

i think many of us would be able to relate mr yeo to this. mr yeo loved what he was doing and he loved everyone around him.

though he had left and and has been rejoined with the Lord, let us not forget what he had done in our lives, the ever ready smile for whatever the circumstances, the sweets and snacks that he never fails to bring for co practices. the thoughtfulness for each and every person that he met.

and then we spread it to the people around us.

thanks for all you've done.
