The Sun and the Moon on a Ramadan Sunday...

It the 26th of May 2019. Woke up to a beautiful day with the Sun just rising above the horizon at the back of my house. It a gorgeous day indeed and it a Sunday, giving folks the opportunity to enjoy the weather as they take a walk around the neighbourhood. After feeding the two cats at the Serambi and the fish in the pond I decides to go out of the house to enjoy the fresh air and the sunshine on such a bright and beautiful morning. Looking at the sky in front of my house I had a glimpse of the Moon up above. It the 21st day of the Ramadan's moon. All throughout this months it has been raining off and on and most of the time the sky was cloudy, thus was not possible to see the Moon all the times. So far I managed to see the moon twice this Ramadan month and this morning is the third time. I was delighted to see the Moon this morning and decides to get my camera and take a shot of it before it disappeared behind some clouds. With the camera I venture a bit further and look at the rising Sun at the back of my house. It was indeed a majestic scene to watch. The whole horizon turns into a glowing mixture of colors. I then move back to the front of the house to see the Moon again. It still there, I then took a few snaps of the 21st day of the Ramadan Moon. Then I walk back to take some snaps of the rising Sun. Above are the images of the morning Sun and as well as the Moon that happens to appears at the same time, around 7.36 AM on this gorgeous Sunday morning.

Have a nice day.

The Flags in Colonial Malaya...

In this posting I want to talk about Flags. I was born in 1939 and grew up during the Japanese occupation of Malaya from 1941 to 1945. So the first flag I saw was the Japanese flag, the white flag with the red circle in the centre. With the return of the British authority the Union Jack was again flown everywhere. With the defeat of the Japanese and the return of the British authority in Malaya the school was reopened. Except for the Japanese school all other schools was closed during the Japanese occupation. In January 1946 I start schooling. I remember my father took me to Sekolah Melayu Teruntun at Jalan Gambut in Kuantan. From the shop-house at Wall Street [now Jalan Mahkota] where we live we walk across the Padang, then follow the path across the grassland behind the Kuantan District Office to the school. The school is across the road with a few Pokok Kelapa Bali planted in front near the roadside. Kelapa Bali is what the Oil Palm is now known. It was at the school tha...

My little garden . ..

I love gardening and with the little space that I got in front of my patio I planted many greens including the one that flowers throughout the years. As they say flowers are the keepers of our Joys. Indeed they are. I am always happy when looking at these wonderful God's creation. Here are some of the flowers that blooms in my little garden as well those that grows in front of the house. Enjoy it folks much as I had enjoyed growing them. Have a nice day.
