I've heard it many times but only this morning did I really "listen". Thank you for posting the lyrics. I read a little more and came upon this post. I lost my mother five years ago in June. Your letter touched me, made me think of my own mother, her struggles and not making it to say goodbye to her. Your words truly touched me -- my tears flowed freely. What a beautiful letter to your mother ... it speaks volumes of your love for her. Congratulations on your marriage. May you create many more precious memories to add to the memories of your mother. I also appreciate ex panang's comment. It opened my eyes and my heart to a life to be lived. I can't express how grateful I am and wanted you to know how deeply affected a stranger was by what you shared. *hugs* I happened on your blog while searching for the lyrics to “That’s All I Ask of You”.

It need not be just now, now that you are married. Know what I mean? Did you know that david was sobbing after everyone has left, because he wished so much that his mum was there present with us. well, he was half drunk.. but reading what you wrote here reminded me of seeing him then. Through him, I really feel what you are feeling. *Hugs* Your mum's soul is resting in peace, I am sure. Because there is someone she can totally trust, as her daughter-in-law! :) <strong>Peter: Aunty, I think so too. It is just that we did not get to go through the tea ceremony with Mum to make it "official."</strong> grandpa, you know, I think when your mum was living, she had already considered Wuan the daughter she’d always wished for.

Aunty, I think so too. It is just that we did not get to go through the tea ceremony with Mum to make it “official.”
