Hola !!!
The Chinese Lunar New Year has begun. The year of the Pig, it is. Malaysia is on a two day national holiday. For us, it has been rather hectic.
We spent Monday night at my sister in law's place. Slept real late. Woke up a little late, too and headed of for brunch. I did the laundry and some cooking. And, tidied up the house.
Today, Amma & I went to my Grandma's house in a city which is approximately 54kms from where we live. Alor Setar is the capital of our state, Kedah. The weather, unfortunately, was blazing hot when we reached around 10am. Yes, it's real humid here, right now. Dry season, synonymous with the Chinese New Year festivity. But Paati's house is surrounded by lots of plants and the marble flooring kept us cold and cozy.
Paati's house is a picture of tranquillity. It's an epitome of a true home sweet home. Paati is no longer around but her home remains as beautiful as ever. Void of her actual presence but a thousand memories of her are etched all over. My aunt lives there now and has maintained the house excellently. The home, I mean.
I'm sharing a couple of photos of them instead of a song today.
Because, nothing is as precious as this God given life and a loving family. And holidays, are meant to be spent with loved ones. At least for me. And I believe, for many of you all out there too.
So, if you have a holiday coming up or even the weekend which is just two days away, make it a point to spend it with the ones who truly love you.
Ya, you can go catch a movie. Or head window shopping. Just drive around. Hang out at home. Whatever pleases you - but make sure it is done with your loved ones. Please.
I've got lots to write, actually. There are so many things I want to write about - especially my health situations that I want to share with many of you, but I have this horrid habit of procrastination. And, the days have been a little busy, of lately too.
I will soon. Write. More frequently.
Good night. God bless.
