Ramadan.

Folks, i almost forgot i have a blog until someone commented on one of my posting and a notification elerted me.

And so.. the month of Ramadan finally begins..

Well, i was looking forward though i am quite the rascal in the past.. for not having the  patience to wait until dusk to eat and drink.

As you get older and wise Ramadan will  be another platform to redeem yourself, seek forgiveness, mercy and blessings from the  Almighty..

“You can’t be old and wise, if you were never young and crazy.”

While it is in session, you would want to get fully engaged for the maximum reward the almighty had promised.

Ramadan will come and will also leave. Therefore we may not know, it may be the last Ramadan for you.

In this region where i lived, the days in Ramadan is  hot and stuffy, so, it can be a reàl test physically and spiritually.

Nonetheless i do enjoy fasting and believe me i have not missed a single day of fasting for the last twenty or so years during Ramadan.

And the night will even be merrier being in the company of fellow congregation, who are more or less your age, whom are also retirees and they are your own circle of friends  performing  the terawih prayers. Sometimes you could be surprised by the jokes they cracked up.

And I am happy.. folks.

We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing. …

Well.. thats about all for the time being folks. Be good and be happy ya..

My Time..

Time has moved.. my time.

If time is a visible dimension, one would see that i am now at the better point of my time line.

Wisdom can be acquired at any age.

The time moves faster today than it was when i was anxiously waiting for the eligible age to withdraw the EPF ..

Today it moves even faster and furious. Somehow.. like i could almost see the end of the line.

It was only yesterday that i leave the company for good.

That ‘yesterday’ was five years ago..!!

Enjoy the present moment – it’s all you’ve got.

As i toe the line of my own timeline., i have witnessed how the circle of people around, the views, the values, the subject of conversations changes.

Changes that indicates that you are ageing.

While this is the first posting since December 2022 i do hope that this will not be the only posting for 2023.

Well… I hope you folks enjoy and appreciate your present times as much as i do with mine.. ya.

Moving On..

It has been quite some times since my last visit to Sarawak.

And as time went by there are some eventful moments that took place that has in some way or another touched into my own personal being.

I have also been too carried away with the routine of running errands for the home but nevertheless would pounce at the slightest opportunity to spend time away from home to unexpected places or countrysides. Something i love doing since my younger days.

Dataran Bagan Datuk.

I drove to Bagan Datuk on one of the weekends and then took up long distance driving trip to around Perlis and recently we flew to Sabah and drove up a rented van from KK to Kundasang and to the tip of Borneo in Kudat.

Perlis Indera Kayangan.

In Kudat, Sabah.

In the recent event the country witnessed a change of government.

For many years i have been wary about Anwar Ibrahim being the prime minister. And today he is the prime minister.

I guess political parties has also taken a turn in their approach about being in power.

For all my life I had never or could ever imagine that UMNO and DAP would ever work and join together to be in the same coalition.. and today, my goodness, they are both part of the goverment of the day!!

Well i guess age is also fast catching up with me and i am picking up the wisdom from the many unexpected events in my own personal life.

Quietly i reminded myself that life is too short to be bothered about who should or should not be the prime minister.

Anwar Ibrahim has been so persistent in his quest to become the prime minister.. maybe he deserved it, give him his chance to prove himself and maybe the two parties i mentioned above are also together truly for the good sake of the country.

Year 2022 is about to come to an end in few days time.. well i guess i ‘d better wish reader of this humble blog a happy new year 2023. Be good, and be happy ya..

And a reminder to my ownself that..

‘the future is uncertain but the end is always near’.
