Solo piece



Imagine you're in a dark and cold room, you're on a chair... with a piano in front of you. The only light that illuminates the room is place solely on you. You're the star. You start playing random beautiful pieces like a seasoned pro. Slow and smooth. This was an intimate moment for you. No other sound, not even a whisper can be heard except for the tunes you're playing. The tunes resemble feelings of joy and sorrow. Flashes of memories , random ones come flashing through your mind. You give a slight smirk on the face at times and also frown in sadness. Slowly the notes starts to disappear..the piano vanishes.. the chair was next... you fell and was sat on the floor. No more music.. everything went silent .. the light slowly dims and ultimately disappears.. Gone. I was told that blogging sometimes is a cry for help to the outside world. Is it?

*the writer was told to pour it out the best way he can so that there's more free space on his head for better , more productive things..*

Ramadhan

This is one of the special months in a year that I look forward to all the time. Yep, its the fasting month of Ramadhan. You will see the biggest food market ever assembled on the streets for the whole month. Keep your weight in check, because you're gonna be tempted to eat everything hehe..

This is also one of the rare occasions where you get to park your car practically anywhere you want and no cop is gonna give a damn. I see people double park , triple park and parking on road dividers like the place has their names on it. So, if you wanna avoid traffic jams, don't go to food markets.

Food markets aside, I especially like this special month because of its 'bonding' effects with your family and Muslim brothers and sisters. I get a very nice feeling inside to be able to have everyone in the family together and eat. Considering how hectic and unpredictable my roster is, having a nice buka puasa session with family is a welcome departure from all the stress. I won't deny that I like the whole 'family' concept. I would like to be the head of one someday. Not a cosa nostra one , mind you , but a real good old fashioned family.

Maybe to some its just an eating session like any other day. But to me , it goes deeper than that. To me its a different feeling as a muslim , to be able to buka puasa with your family , loved ones and friends on a fasting month. You gotta fast and experience it to feel it. It's special.

Alright alright this is all gonna end up sounding like a preachy Mari Berpuasa campaign, so I better stop sounding so corny.

Anyways, Selamat Berpuasa :)
