Trishaw Ride



I became a tour guide for a friend's old classmate who is back from UK. She has not ride on a trishaw for over 30 years. Naturally, she wanted to take a snapshot riding on it. We asked the trishaw man to allow us to take this shot. The kind chap relented and made this lady so delighted throughout her visit in my hometown, Melaka.

Ice Cream Man



When I was young, the ringing bell of the ice cream man excites me! I would rush out to the street to stop him before I went to my Dad for some coins to buy ice creams. Cornetto cones ice cream is a luxury that we only get to enjoy during Chinese New Year. That's when we had more cash from our angpow (red packets) to spend.

Speaking of my Dad, I miss him. I would like to share this poignant video featuring a father and his son. It moved me. I hope you too.

Threatening Sky



The sky is threatening us with a big storm. But people in the KLCC park were enjoy the blowing breeze and the view beyond. Less than 10 mins after shooting this photo, the sky poured endlessly. I waited for over 1 hour for the rain to stop but alas, it didn't. Managed to get a kind Samaritan to share with me her umbrella. She even offered to shelter me with her umbrella all the way to my car! How kind of her! How fortunate for me to meet her! It's a blessing after all!

Have you met any kind stranger recently? What did the stranger helped you with?

Beautiful Park



What a great discovery! It's the KLCC Park! How many of us ever try to be a tourist in the city that we live in? I did that last week while I was in the vicinity of KLCC. It was a wonderful around the park and in the Suria Mall. This is the view that I caught while standing in the Kinokuniya Bookshop! This ethereal scene mesmerized me intensely. I didn't know what I had been missing until then! I find it very calming to take a stroll in the park. Probably its the colour of green and being close to nature that makes me feel peace. How about you? Do you love a stroll through the park? Do you have a favourite one in your city?

Peak Hour @ KTM Station









Peak hour at the Mid Valley KTM commuter train station was a daunting experience. In addition, it was going to be a long weekend with Hari Raya Haji falls on Sunday and Monday would be a public holiday. Many city dwellers are leaving for their hometown and the crowd at the train station was overwhelming. Some couldn't get on the train as it was sardine-packed. It's tough as that meant another 30-40 minutes of waiting for the next KTM commuter train to arrive.

Each time I take a public transport, my frustration never fails to raise! Our public transport systems suck! They still need a lot of improvement. I hope our government will allocate more funds to improve our public transport systems. It is wrong for our government to aim to be a high-income nation when basic needs such as systematic public transport is yet in place! I would rather our government put more effort in improving our basic necessities before it aims for something that may benefit only a small group of people!

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
