I am six (6) decade and seven (7) years today. The journey
to the Tombstone is getting nearer.
On 17 December 67 years ago while the British about to
rejuvenate Malaya after the Nippon and the Bintang Tiga wrecked this country, I
eagerly entered the world at the break of dawn, without the aid of the Bidan
(Nidwife). It was in a kampong where there was no such thing as pipe water and
electricity. I grew up in that environment until I was fifteen (15).
Today…..67 years later, Allah still give me the space in
this world and provide me with pipe water and electricity. It is more than
that, a car to move around, brick house to live equip with porcelain bowl to
shit and a computer to ramble my journey and thoughts. Allah also blesses me
with a caring wife and two (2) independent children as I was. The only setback
I do not breathe the same none polluted air as 67 years ago and the vice that I
cannot discard is my friend Mr. Benson & Hedges.
There were ups and down as I thread the 67 years journey. I
believe in my way and I did it my way. Regret? Cannot be undone and too many to
mention. I always scared when I recollect the jahiliyah era. Allah is merciful and alhamdullillah with His
hidayah, ih dinas siro thal mustakim,
I recovered in time. Grace Be Upon Him.
To those who send Birthday greetings, thank you very much.
It is made simple by sms and the thoughts that count.
My only hope as I go on living insyaalah, is to see my
country peaceful where all living soul living in perfect harmony where
everybody can enjoy life within the prospective of the Law.
