Bila bulan mengambang

Coming back from sending my love at the bus station,to the in laws we went.After maghrib,we set on our journey to one of the stores in Kangar.

Bought some rations for the week…… prawns,bilis,onions and what not.Alas the veggie were wilting and so terbantutlah rasahati makcik nak membeli.But a pineapple of small size cost 2.80.Makoii.awat mahai sangat.? Tapi dek kerana nak melepaskan rindu dendam makcik ke gulai udang bernenas,terpaksa jugalah dibeli.

Sometimes,penduduk Perlis macam tak ada pilihan macam negeri lain.Boleh membeli belah dengan harga murah macam kat Tesco,Giant,Carrefour  …..what not .Jadi jangan hairan kalau banyak warga Perlis buat shopping trip ke Alor Star.Ya la, at 10.00 di sana ,masih boleh beli udang fresh.Masih boleh dapat nenas at 90 sen at certain time.Bawang besar masih boleh dibeli at 099 a kilo….when your timing is correct.

So bila makcik ke gerai seberang jalan ,that same amount of bawang cost me a staggering @2.30 ,menjerit adoi makcik.RM 50 just got me a few things.Lekat celah gigi saja.

So siapa kata Perlis standard of living murah……

Balik dari membeli barangan,we travelled by way of the infamous Jalan Kampung Bakau.Its not the kampung or the flats that caught my attention.Something bright and shiny in the horizon did. At careful look,and getting clearer  and clearer was the full moon in the sky. The moon was shining brightly and it looked like a big lantern up there.

picture googled.

Tangkaplah gambar ,pakli suggested.

Tak pa ,sampai rumah nanti,tentu bulan tu boleh diambil gambar banyak banyak. I was a bit lazy to dig the camera in my handbag

Tapi bila sampai ke rumah…..,mana eh bulan yang kita lihat tadi? It was not in sight.

Peristiwa ini membuat makcik termenung sekejap.Opportunity seldom strikes all the times. Grab it when it comes.When we think waiting is a good game,then you are left waiting.Sometimes indefinitely.

So if opportunity comes your way,be opportunistic. Usahlah dok ingat sangat apa yang akan datang kemudian.Because the future sometimes does not follow what we plan.Sebabnya orang lain akan ambil opportunity itu andai kita masih terkial kial memikir,memikir dan memikir.

Faham tu anak anak.
