What Is Peace To Me


It has been raining the whole night. When I got up to eat something in order to observe saum in this holy Ramadhan, I could hear the pitter-patter of the raindrops falling on the window pane. This is the most beautiful morning I have ever experienced. I do not know why but I feel so at peace. Nothing unusual happened to me, maybe because I love the rain so much, especially when it rains in the night. As I lay myself on the cold bed, I could still hear the droplets of the tears of heaven, making such beautiful harmonious sound. It is like a piece of music to my ears. Wonder if my unreachable moon could hear the sound of the beautiful rain too…

Dear Lord, thank you for giving me these feelings of serenity and tranquility in my mind. I do not wish this moment to end.

My mind wanders further and further, deeper and deeper into the land of dreams…
I do not want to wake up.

Malaysian Heritage

Dr Jaya was absolutely right. Staying in Melaka is definitely not boring at all. There are a lot of things to do, many things to see and many historical places to visit. I had a great time spending my weekends there. Since I decided not to go back to KL during weekends, I made plans with Zurina and Wazir to visit some of the beautiful places here. Melaka is a nice place to visit. I love watching the sunset at Klebang beach, window shopping at Mahkota Parade, eating “mee hoon basah” at the RR stall near our home, driving round the Melaka city at night with my friends, dinner at Anjung Batu…simply love the “ikan bakar”…ohhh so many things to tell and to share with. During one of the weekends, my friends and I visited one of the most popular attractions in Melaka that is the Taman Mini Malaysia. It is situated approximately 16 killometres from the city. The complex displays the actual size of the beautiful traditional crafted house from the 13 states in Malaysia. What is unique about Tama
