Port Dickson sky: Do you see what I see?

Port Dickson sky: Do you see what I see?

********

Port Dickson is a small beach town in Malaysia.

There are many hotels there. But I see many camps parked along the beach road, too.

If I do go back to visit my siblings, I’d never miss a humble glass of ABC (Air Batu Campur). I don’t know why KL and Penang can’t served ABC the way this Port Dickson Hainanese family does!

And I saw this picture posted on social media by a former classmate who still lives in Port Dickson. I am amazed by what I saw.

Can you see what I saw at a first glance!

Everyone has two eyes,

but no one has the same view.

Maybe, maybe not….

Letting go and acceptance

Letting go and acceptance

Letting go and acceptance

Letting go doesn’t mean that you don’t care about someone anymore. It’s just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself.

When privacy is getting the ‘essence’ of the matter(s)

When privacy is getting the ‘essence’ of the matter(s)

****

Do you get

what one is trying to tell you?

… the essence of the matter?

****

Do you see

what one is trying to show you?

…the shadow of the matter?

****
So you learn about an idea

and you learn about a story

*****

…. although you don’t get

to see the real matter(s) within,

…cos one mixes the matters

within one’s pot of privacy.

****

That is sharing

while maintaining privacy.

Privacy is not an option, and it shouldn’t be the price we accept for just getting on the internet .

Grieving and moving on

Grieving and moving on

****

One grieves the loss of

amputated breast(s), anus,

there’s no turning back

****

One grieves the loss of

a dear deceased, loved one

both have to move on

****

One grieves for a child

once normal, now disabled

it’s a new path now

****

Letting go is hard

yet letting go is caring

to venture new paths

****

Letting go, is love

to care, to free, one lets go,

let go of control

Music, travel and mental health

Music soothes the mind,

anxiety, depression, and

schizophrenia, too

Music and travel

both relaxing and calming

those disturbing thoughts

In a vehicle

in a therapeutic mode

cruise and soak in it! !

Sunset at Port Dickson beach

************

Here in Malaysia

is a town called Port Dickson.

Some call it ‘Alang‘.

***

‘Arang‘ means charcoal

 used to be a carbon mine

later a small port.

***

Driving leisurely

I parked along the road side

occasionally…

***

Marvelling, we watched,

serene sunset, camping tents,

human silhouette.

***

Please drive on, mummy!

Enjoying music background,

watching the night glowed.

Beneath the umbrella of a leave

Beneath the umbrella of a leave

Why would a beautiful bloom of a lotus hide beneath an umbrella of a leave?

I saw many pictures of lotuses in bloom, posted by Toh HL.

********

This is the cutest.

Why would a beautiful bloom

hide beneath a leave?

*******

Do you need a sunglass

to hide from the bright sunlight?

No, a leave will do!
