After a hard day of work, I would usually drag my tired feet home. One day,as I walking home and in mind, I was reflecting on the day's happenings, a nice aroma brought my attention to a corner of a flat's void deck.The nice aroma came from a roll of "otahs" (curry fish cakes wrapped with banana leaves)that were being nicely arranged and put on top of a small box of charcoal box.
The one fanning them was a thin and small built-man. I have been seeing him for the last 3 weeks, standing at the same corner, selling his "otahs". Very few people buy from him.
Yet what I have learnt something from this otah man is his perseverance of earning a livelihood. Despite that life is harsh and difficult for him, he's willing to give a try. I am not sure how much he will benefit from selling the "otahs"; but that may be all he can depend on to continue life.
When times get tough, it's not a bad idea at all to laugh things off... but my friend, "slacker" reminded me that it's only a temporal happiness.
Pasta!!! Yum yum... I just like to eat that. Food always taste good when you take time to prepare it. Yup, I have put all these stuff together to make a nice plate of tasty pasta. Of course, didn't just do it all by myself... but with the help of somebody. Hee... and if you need the recipe, just drop a note and I will give it to you.
Every morning I wake up, I am grateful for another new day to live. I try not to take the breathe of life in me for granted. As its given to me for a purpose. Till now, I am still struggling to live the way my Maker wants me to. Feeling tired, wounded and discouraged I will try to depend on Him to see me through. Not easy... but He is defintely trustworthy.
