I admit that I'm actually inspired by my old uni friend, who in spite of being so busy as a mother and educator, she still manage to write something, even though not every day. Thanks, Siti. I always learn something from your post. Your words of wisdom, without fail, since June 2002 has always been inspirational. Thank you.
Wow, what a coincidence, it's June now and it has been 10 fascinating, enjoying, marvelous, splendid, superb and wonderful years staying in Penang Island. I have never ever dreamed of staying and working here. It's a 2-in-1 package of working cum vacationing. The last time I had this kind of experience was when I was teaching in Sekolah Rantau Petronas, Kerteh from February 1995 until December 1998.
I guess, 6 must be my lucky number because of all the days, I picked today, the 6th in the month of June, which is also number 6, to start my blog. I hope I will be able to write continuously and update my blog, Insyaallah.
A few years ago, the movie "Dead Poets Society" enliven a deep Latin phrase that most of us had forgotten: Carpe Diem. It means Seize the Day. It is an encouragement to live life to the fullest, getting the most out of each individual day. That is what everybody should do, LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!
Unfortunately, many times we are so caught up in the details of day to day living that we just don't have time to Seize the Day! We've got datelines and commitments, problems and priorities, distractions and obstacles, and though we really want more fulfillment from every single day, it just doesn't seem to be within our grasp.
So, happy reading and may you gain something from my blog and everyone is allowed to leave comments. But please, positive ones so that I could improve my blog posts.
