Not my day...

Lets start the day by saying that today was Hari Raya Haji or better Hari Raya AidilAdha. Things was not good from the time I woke up.
It was raining and I didn't go for the morning prayers. And my mind was thinking of Stingray 3 all the way. On the taxi trip to my grandma's house, I kept staring emptily out the window, the downpour was going to carry on for the days to come, and I'm going to get drenched all the way.

What the heck!

Never mind that, after visiting my grandma from my fathers side, I visited my sick grandpa at TTSH. Unlike previous years where we would visit my aunts house, this year we have to visit my grandpa in the hospital. Seeing the drip that runs through his aging veins, seeing the nasal catether running behind his ears, I could only pray that God would be light on him.I felt sad knowing that his time is near. I just hope that I will be there with him. And knowing that Thailand is waiting next month, I just felt fear.

Too bad the weather did the crying for me.

And again hearing the takbir yesterday brought a few tears out.

Oh God Almighty! To You I seek to lighten the burdens on me, my
family and my friends. To You I pray for their safety on earth and the hereafter
for you are the merciful One. Show them the guidance to the true path, a path
that will lead to You. I pray for my gandfather, who is not in a good condition,
for You to bless him with riches surpassing his age. Remove all our fears of the
unknown and restore peace and calmness in our daily lives. Restore peace on
Earth, the citizens of the Earth has long deserve the riches that You have to
offer. Make us Your humble guests in Your everlasting heaven and save us all
from hellfire. Amin.
