Everything else is not important


Rule 1: Treat people like how you would like to be treated.


Rule 2: Look at rule 1.

Rusty


Sometimes all we need is a little change in perspective. In the presence of a new company it could change the way you perceive how much your life has changed in the last year or so.

Last night I had the pleasure of being reminded on how crap I was after nearly 15 year-hiatus from the table. My moves were pretty rusty but to my surprise not thaaat bad that I managed to beat an opponent 6 years younger.

Let's talk about a giant leap of faith.

Anyone knows where we can do sky-jumping in Malaysia?

The cancer who stole Aidilfitri


I went inside the ward and negotiated my steps along the corridor. My peripheral vision caught the sight of a nurse who called me in less than 4 minutes ago. I could sense the sadness engulfing the place.

I knocked the door and entered the dimly lit room. There was a man lying on the bed with a woman sitting beside him.

"He just died a while ago" Sarah, my medical officer whispered to me.

I looked at his medical notes.

"33 years old. Pancreatic cancer"

(for a brief moment, Randy came to mind)

He was about my age, I thought.

As I walked away, I noticed a familiar-looking old man on TV had just finished making the Raya announcement.

Homebound


It it that time of the year where tiny folded papers are thrown onto the table.


I held my breath in suspence as my right hand reached out for my fate.


This is a vital process come every Aidilfitri.


Slowly... I unfolded the crumpled paper in front of me...... The four letter word caught my eyes...




As this off duty soldier on a ship homebound tomorrow.


Someone had to stay back and guard the fort.
