Family bond matters to me the most. There is a longing that resides deep within my heart - to carry my mother's ashes back to Malaysia. For forty
years, she resided in distant Canada with my brothers. My brothers confided in me, revealing our mother's hidden tears as she gazed upon
our photographs, longing to be with us.

Time, a ruthless thief, snatched away her memories, leaving her unable to embrace her four daughters once more. The ache of not feeling her gentle
touch, of not intertwining our fingers, of not sharing laughter and tears, burdened our hearts unbearably.

A fleeting moment remains etched in my mind when she briefly graced Malaysia's shores. Yet, the bitter truth lingers: my children, nieces and nephews
never had the chance to bask in her presence for long, unable to create lasting and meaningful memories with their grandmother.

This journey surpasses mere physicality; it transforms into an emotional pilgrimage. It grants us the opportunity to visit our mum more frequently,
finding solace in the knowledge that she has finally landed in her home. It is a testament to the unbreakable bond between a mother and her children,
a bond that transcends time and distance.

My inspiration and joy comes from my two daughters. When my youngest daughter wrote a poem about growing up for her high school assignment,
she wrote:

“Growing up is knowing it’s okay to be a red M&M,
In a bowl of blue M&M
Because acting the way society wants make you unhappy”.

Through the years, I taught my daughters to always be the best versions of themselves and strive for the best. Nothing matters more to me than my
family as I’m nobody without them.

My husband and I are so proud of our eldest daughter fulfilling her dream of completing a degree in the US. Soon, she will be flying to New York City to be with her fiancé. As my husband and I are retired, the prize money would help fund our trip to witness their wedding and pay for her dream wedding that she deserves. Being able to see our firstborn get married would be one of the proudest moments for us and we wouldn’t want to miss it.

Zurich has always been part of our financial plan's safety net that provides us with a peace of mind for Zurich cares for what matters!

First, I plan to travel with my family. It's been years since our last family trip, and reminiscing fills me with nostalgia. Although we haven't decided on a
travel destination yet, I believe that as long as I'm with my family, wherever we go, it will be a journey filled with memories, sharing joy and precious
moments..

Secondly, I plan to open my own flower shop, aiming for each bouquet to bring happiness and express love and gratitude for life, offering a moment of
pause in people's busy lives to appreciate life's beauty..

My passion for floral art comes from the warm atmosphere of my family. In my childhood, my mother always brought home flowers, filling our house
with happiness. Often, I joined her in arranging them, each time was a cherished moment, admiring the beauty of flowers together, chatting, and
sharing joy. These times felt especially warm and happy, fueling my deep love for floral art..

I also want to express my gratitude to my mother for being my role model. Her love and guidance have shaped my achievements today. Through floral
art, I hope to convey my deep appreciation and love for her, acknowledging her importance in my life.
