And thus it ends.
And thus it ends.
Whither hath ye gone? Whither hath ye gone?
Why hath ye forgotten?
Or perhaps we're are to be blamed.
Did ye know the consequences?
Alas, alas, the perception of invulnerability.
What exactly happened?
I know not; and I doubt I shalt ever know.
Whither are ye now? Whither are ye now?
I know not; yet it will ever be my hope that when all comes to an end for me, we shall meet again in the presence of the Lord.
Nevertheless, while all physical things must come to an end, it is not so for a friendship;
for it being a relationship of love, ends not even when all others have.
I wish I could have done more then, but I can't for the time has passed.
I wish I could do more now, but I'm powerless.
Yet though my hands be tied, those of my Father in heaven are not,
and in Him I place my hope and prayers that those who have been left behind are not overly stricken with grief, but that they'll be healed and made whole again.
Ever were you a friend to me, and ever will you be one to me.
Requiescas in pace, amice mee. Requiescas in pace, amice mee.
And thus it ends.
Much has happened, since that rainy windswept day in 2001.
Blood has been shed, sweat has flowed.
It has been an amazing journey of victories and triumphs, of defeats and sorrows.
I am in much debt to my coach Mr. See and to my seniors who have taught me the ropes and made me to a very large extent, who I am today;
and even more so to my Father in heaven who has so faithfully been by my side even when I knew Him not.
To those who have ever been at my side, it is my good fortune. To those who have fought hard beside me, it has been an honour. To those about me, it has been a pleasure. Indeed, I owe much to many, not least to my heavenly Father, of which I can only hope to repay with sincere thanksgiving.
It all started on a pouring day, followed by a first pause of blue skies and sunshine, then a second pause on a day dark and threatening. When it all ends once again, then shall the sun fill the blue sky with its radiance and warmth.
Nevertheless, though an end it may be, it is but an end of the beginning. A long journey lies ahead; yet one knows not whether tomorrow brings an end of the beginning, or the end of all things.
And thus it ends.
