RAINY DAY
Spent the afternoon measuring time with so many raindrops. It's monsoon season.
No different than years past when rainfall tap danced across tin roofs, like it did half a lifetime ago in an old kampung house.
Or the time rain drummed a mesmerizing pitter-patter atop a solitary Japanese teahouse, way up in the central highlands of Malaysia, while slowly sipping a warm cup of matcha.
Except that today, Khatijah and I were at hospital, having lunch in an al fresco cafe when the rain began to pour. As it rained and rained and rained, we watched healthy and not so fortunate souls pass by.
It made me think how wonderful the rainfall was; how nice it was to be healthy; and how blessed I was to spend this moment with my beloved.
