Today marks the new day in the Muslim calendar. Many people think that Hari Raya is the new year celebration...but it is not.
For us, the 'celebration' is marked with a day of prayers and thanksgiving.
In the spirit of things, I completed my move from my spot downstairs.
It has been 9 long years...since I moved down to that position.
As I cleaned out my desk, I remember the times I've had...with friends and colleagues...and the students who sat beside me as I worked. I also recall my encounters with my 'friend' - the presence of another being in the room.
I have spent more than 23 years in the school already. That is a long time...
It's my second home.
So I leave the table with a sense of sadness, but also a stronger sense of calm.
We all need to move on...and at this point of time, I have come to cherish my health and my peace of mind.
Ya Allah,
It is Your Will. It's a time for new beginnings.
With your blessings, I will have more good times ahead.
Insyaallah. Amin.
