So we decided to check out the place next to our street- one where people picnics, runs and drives through to get to strathfield. It is also a place where the dead congregate- Rookwood cemetry.
Taking a map that the seniors left behind, we took a stroll through the cemetery and guess what WE FOUND A NEW WAY TO WALK TO FLEMINGTON MARKET!!! THAT MEANS- we can save 3.20 for return trip which means we can save money ...which means we can have more food!!!Being the market aunties, we actually got our way to Burwood:) hahahahaha~ exciting.. we clocked a close to 8 hours trek on foot to reach burwood and back to Lidcombe. I think i was mad to do that after my marathon but well, I was desperate to get some life and there u go~ Rookwood venture.
The young ones who had not had a chance to see the world before they left to be with the Lord.
The memorial plaque
We could see the city in the rookwood midst!!
Amidst the stroll in the cemetery, the young ones that left the world to be back with the Lord left me the most vivid impression. They never really got to see the world before they left this world..many of us will feel it's a pity that they had not had the chance to see what's out there. Somehow their departure has taught me to just contented with the life I was given. It might get treacherous and stressful at times, irritating and dreading in certain parts of our seasons..but nevertheless, you grow as a person and most importantly, your presence will be of a blessing to someone( if there is). What does your life mean to you? More than just living? A gift from your parents? hm for me- It's like pay it forward- for the life blessing that God has ordained and given through your parents, pay it forward by being a blessing to others.
