It has been a bit more than a week now since Yasmin Ahmad passed away.
And I have been thinking about her off and on since then.
I wish I had a chance to talk to her, to interview the great mind behind the simple and yet powerful ads and movies. She was so inspiring, truly Malaysian in heart and soul.
I wish I could come up with stories like she did. To write stories with the potential to change minds and lives like that would be any writer's dream come true, including me.
The melancholic in me is again reminded of my own journey. Of taking time off and smelling the roses. Taking opportunities that come by. Enjoying life to the best of my ability. And making a difference in the lives of those around me.
Thank you Yasmin for giving us a little more spirit, hope and dreams.
You will be remembered. You will be missed.
