6 years ago.

It was a black and white photo of a coffin. Thousands of rose petals were placed on top of the coffin - a beautiful way of saying goodbye to the departed.

But this was what Mrs Lim said when she showed us the photo:

Those flowers are meaningless because the person is dead. What is more important is the way you treat someone when they are alive.

So, say 'I love you' and mean it. Hug the ones you love, if you have the chance.

We can't live forever. Life is short.

Don't ever take the person you love for granted.
