the lunar new yr hol extended wkend is coming to an end..will suffer a bit of post-holiday blues i guess..but this season has been a fulfilling one for me..

for one, something which has touched me during this period of time is seeing how my side of the relatives are so close to this other grp of pple who used to be their close neighbours back in the kampong days...their close relationships have been formed since then and till now the good old ties remain and every yr without fail, we'll visit them..though i haven't been through that generation, but i felt the bond and camaraderie which is so evident among them...in fact, they care for one another just lk a real family..

and it warms my heart to see the strong kampong spirit present even in present days...in these times when relationships between neighbours are often strained, its rare to such close ties still contact..we ought to be ashamed that now even many of us do not know who our neighbours are lest to mention abt building any bonds..

such kampong spirit..lost in this modern world where its fast becoming to be one promoting individualism..we have to find that spirit back, to preserve what is good and worthy...Lord, thats my prayer to this modern society, a society which will transform into Your glory
