Tribute to Mrs Lee Kwan Yew
-
Behind every successful man, there must be two GREAT women: The Mother and the Wife. Mrs Lee was a wife and mother to two of our Prime Ministers. She has done much for our nation. Thank you, Mrs Lee. You’re truly a woman we should all emulate.
"A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies."
"Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value."
"She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life."
"She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands."
"She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar."
"She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls."
"She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard."
"She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks."
"She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night."
"In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers."
"She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy."
"When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet."
"She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple."
"Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land."
"She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes."
"Strength and honor are her clothing; she shall rejoice in time to come"
"She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue."
"She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness."
"Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her."
"Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."
"Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised."
"Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate."
- Proverbs 31. -

I hope MM is able to get over his grief, even though he is mentally prepared for this. Without Mrs Lee, he would not have been able to build a nation. We have to thank God for her.
