| (Fishing boats at Tanjung Piai) |
Fishing is not one of my favorite past time.
The night was windy, the men were smoking and exchanging good-humored stories while I sat alone lost in thought at one corner of the jetty holding the fishing rod loosely. Both legs freely dangling over clear water. Mark Knopfler's 'Down to the waterline' was playing softly in the back ground. I watched small fishes nibbling at the bait playfully. My mind was wondering far, pondering the imponderable. The mind is full of thoughts.
This trip is supposed to relax my mind, body and soul. As simple as that. But of course it wasn’t simple at all. When it came to impulses, nothing was simple.
'
What agonies of mind had I put me through now?

The CNY long weekend was spent driving in our 4x4 down south to 'the southernmost tip of the mainland Asia' at Tg. Piai, Desaru, Air Papan, to Kuantan passing the Endau Rompin back to KL...

ReplyDeleteHazia,
ReplyDeleteI am ok to stay longer at places like this one.
It's therapeutic for mind,body and soul...
You keep on saying "don't worry about me, I'll be fine" but there’s deep within that you have to fix things up.
ReplyDeleteWhile there's still time…
Don’t be judgmental.
ReplyDeleteI had made it a rule to ignore negative thoughts… My pondering mind is free to roam, and I take careful note of what I discover along the way…
We do not have to be in control of everything to enjoy life.
