I'm back again! (the spirit of Qurban)

Salam...I’m back again...Wow, such a long period since the last time I posted something here.. Well..guess all the assignments and tasks have robbed the rightful space of this blog from my life..hehe..actually I was intending to share with all, my new experience of this year's hari raya haji..but guess it's never been too late for that right? But sorry if my story this time is a bit 'basi' for all to read...just trying to find an ample spare time for this and now only I managed to find one.


Well, this year's hari raya haji was quite meaningful to me. This was because that was the first time i was called to join my parents to witness the Qurban in a mosque near my house. Actually my mum and big sis were performing their Qurban this year and that' the reason I was there. To see my mum and sis's cow got 'executed'..hehe..


SO, it's quite a scary moment to see the cows being sacrificed. The sound of the cows, the smell, even the facial expression of the cows, so 'giving up', i could still remember until now...and to see them dying hard but slow, reminded me that one day, I’m going to experience this too...it's only the matter of how hard or how easy God will make me die, would be the difference. The feeling of sad and gloomy slowly pervaded into my soul.


But still, I was happy on that day. Despite of hearing Malaysian youths have gone astray added with those facing social and moral problems, today I could see the different side of it. I was quite surprised yet proud to see many young men being the back bone for this upacara Qurban. Most of them who were helping out were in their 20s I guess. They were so busy helping the elders, right from holding tight the cows, to melapah, to even dividing the meat. They were so full of energy and spirit. At least now i know, there are Malaysian youths who still possess good values..cayalah orang Pasir Gudang..hehe..

As i don't have an mmc reader with me now, i can't share with all of you some pictures that I managed to capture during this event. Later perhaps...c u again...
