Rapuh...

It saddens me to read about it.
Sad to the core.

From what it seems as an accidental death, its a tragedy,preplanned.
The news about bodies found in the river at three separate places shocked us. I know that river because I used to travel along it for two years during my stint as n MBMMBI teacher in Chemumar.
Sungai Tambun Tulang ,its muddy water flowing slowly in the dry season but could swell in rainy days.

Hairan macamana mereka boleh jatuh dalam sungai tu was our initial response.

Then the mystery unfolded.
Its suicide!
Masya Allah... apa agaknya sebab mereka mengambil keputusan berbuat begitu. Tak terjangka difikiran ku.
Dan akhirnya terungkai sebabnya. AH LONG!

Ditengah tengah kemelut pemimpin negara dilondeh ttg kekayaan tahap gila baboon dan unka mereka, entah berapa juta manusia penduduk Malaysia tercengkam hidup kerana papa kedana. Rumah terlelong, kedamaian hidup terancam. The next meal on the table entah dapat disediakan atau tidak.
Have gone through that phase when I was growing up. Tapi masa itu boleh kata semua orang susah. Tak ada dispariti menyala macam kini. Compang camping pakaian ke sekolah tapi semangat kami kuat. Kalau kita selekeh bab pakaian kita tunjuk hebat dalam pelajaran. Be ahead of our friends in fields that they arent. Di situ kita beroleh kekuatan.

That aside... have seen how torturous it could be to be haunted by debts or hutang.Or when there's no moolah to buy essential necessities

Mengasah parang ,mengugut bunuh diri dan mencederakan keluarga macam tak ada apa2.Macam tak ada pegangan agama.
Kisah yg terjadi di Sabah kalau tak silap saya juga amat hiba. Sanggup si ibu membunuh anak 2 bila akal sudah tidak lagi berdaya memikir sebaiknya.

In reality, hidup kita rapuh sebenarnya.
Hari ini kita di puncak kekayaan,kegemilangan,entah esok kita bagai ranting kering ayng rapuh. Bila bila masa gugur ke bumi. Dipungut si miskin utk dijadi kayu api.

Sekian..TQ.
Bye. Have a blessed weekend .
