Taking responsibility for yourself...


Phew, things have been so hectic that I have had to ignore my blogs. I did not even have the luxury of taking photos. Missed quite a few photo op, Penang, Langkawi, Melaka not to mention the numerous eating places and glorious food that I gorged on. The camera was there, yet the situation does not permit...

In the middle of this, a little bird whispered to me saying that people thought I have changed and am no longer the person I was before. That friendship to me is a tool to move forward, once used to be left behind if not discarded. Then it flew away before I could ask what the @3#@^?* this is all about. Lucky it did or it might end up stuffed and hanging on a wall somewhere...

This post is not a defence, just a little rant to give my side of the story. Not specifically for you but for me, perhaps in time to come I would look back to this and learn a thing or two. First and foremost, everything changes, even time. There is no reverse. You age, you wrinkle and you die. Its a human fact. With that progression, other things change too. I weigh a bit more, my hair is beginning to have speckles of white in it, I can't eat as much and I sleep less. So, yes, I have changed. But that statement about friendship being a tool is something that I definitely cannot accept. I have been used as a tool but I have and never will be a user. If that is what you thought of me, I am sorry, not for you but for myself. Its sad to think that people I accepted as friends thinking of me that way.

Anyway, you might ask, what has this little rant got to do with the title ? Well, in a round about way, what I am trying to say is that, we should each look at ourselves first, examine our actions and habits before we point fingers and start saying so and so is a snob, so and so is getting arrogant, you get the drift.

Finally, I am still here (errr, in Malaysia...for now) so call me. If I don't answer, SMS and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Otherwise lets just get on with our lives and see if time will bring us back together.

Raya Candid Shots





The recent raya afforded me some breathing space. It felt good to be able to look at things through the lens again. Capturing a moment in time which will be gone forever. Though these are not the greatest of pictures, these are the main reason that I took up photography in the first place.


While the adults were busy catching up the kids were at play. Bliss ignorance letting them enjoy the moments as it happens.

Aidilfitri 2007.

Ramadhan is fast coming to a close with Syawal just around the corner. Just in case I do not have the opportunity to blog before Aidilfitri, Selamat Hari Raya to one and all. I sincerely wish you and your family a joyous celebration and in the spirit of the month seek forgiveness for all the wrongs that I have, may have or imagined to have done. If there was any then it is definitely unintentional, if it was intentional I am certain that you'll know about it... he he he...

I digress, sorry. Semoga Allah memberkati ibadah kita.
