The leak still goes on... (for now)
- The external kitchen roof still leaks.
- The master bedroom leaks.
Even though these were recently fixed :
- The external kitchen roof had a new layer of zinc at the leaking location.
- The roof above the Master bedroom was re-checked and tarred.
Thankfully,
- There is almost no leak from the car porch ceiling (So far I only spotted 1 single, hanging water droplet yesterday)
- There were two occasions where the internal kitchen leaked water. It was fixed again, with a zinc sheet above the hinge between the wall and the neighbour's roof.
I think I am calmer now as compared to before.
Treat things that happen as Karma that has ripen.
Treat hurting words like arrows that I transform into flowers as they arrive.
Ohm....

Seed of the Weed, Timebombs, Calamities
Seed of the Weed
Generally when people are not faced with serious difficulties in their lives, their minds wander and tend to create problems for the community.
Timebombs
The timebomb ticks away every second in the community where people sow discontent by means of wandering minds and wagging tongues.
Calamities
Is when people are thrown back into basic mode of their life - tending to their basic needs.
My father was right. In his own words, "When they are too free, they create problems!".
Hare Krishna.

Thirty Years Later
Thirty Years Later (Deja vu)
Deja vu. I am experiencing the same situation I faced when I was a child. Once as a little child I was attending a funeral. There, I thought to myself, "I do not feel sad.I think I could laugh. Am I feeling neutral or do I not have compassion ?"
Thirty years later. I ask myself again the same question when I see so many scenes of suffering around me for so many years, including my own.
Reassessment:
I have suffered - emotionally and physically in the past thirty years. The fear remains there to haunt me now and then. The sympathy I have for others seemed to have faded - knowing that it does not really help.
Dharma(Duties/Path). Temporary Dharma of the body, Eternal Dharma of the soul. Eternity is beyond me. Can only see the immediate, hence, only performing my duties.
Passion. Losing it.
Security, Trust in others. Lost both.
Senses. Still there, I think.
Attachment. Definitely there - to Dharma, Senses.
Hare Krishna.

The Holey Roof..Fixed
It had been a rough week.
Monday
Back from Singapore and Johor. What a trip.
I thought the drive would kill me, but instead, the walk did.
My legs felt like breaking after the long, long walk at Orchard Road, Singapore.
Saturday
Materials, materials, materials... for the roof.
Zinc sheets RM24.30 per sheet X 20 Sheets
Red Roof tiles, joints, cement, screws, bitumen, glue,etc
All came to RM550.
Sunday
Finally got the roof fixed, I hope. A full day's work from 8am right up to 7:00pm.
Sent workers back, back home (which is in a mess) ,had dinner till 8pm.
Worked straight till 10:30pm.
Showered, hit the bed.
Next day was back to work.
So far so good.
Thank you, Anuar.
Hare Krishna!

Solitude or Company
Solitude or Company
Do I like solitude or do I despise company ?
In this senseless world, solitude gives me the sense of peace. Solitude sets my mind free to wander, to create, to discover.... to be free. Selfish, senseless company robs away peace and shreds concentration into loose, unfocused thoughts.
I despise company and prefers solitude because there is no quality in today's company.
Quality company doesn't rely on any physical or verbal interactions.
In quality company, our mere presence is enough to enrich the heart, mind and soul; and brings peace to all present. Sometimes they call it the effulgence of shaktipat emitted from the saints that brings us peace.
Ohm Shanti, Hare Krishna !

Beware of CON-tractors
Wasted the entire day yesterday - waiting for the tardy, sluggish, snobbish, conniving, unscrupulous contractor didn't turn up.
He even refused to acknowledge his tardiness when he was running late for his work appointment. Even tried to question my work timing as a customer.
He just lost a customer for life the moment he hung up.
I have also registered his contacts into the www.complaints.com.my site to warn the public of his work quality, tardiness and non-professional behaviour.
I am sure I will not be the last of his victims but I sure hope that less people will fall into the trap I have fallen into before.
I have lost money and time. That's all right, I will work to replenish that.
Hare Krishha.

Prayers for the leaking roof, rotting wood, wet floor & dampen heart
Prayers for the leaking roof, rotting wood, wet floor & dampen heart
Dear Lord
The roof of the house is leaking in four major areas.
The car porch - the leakages is back and getting worse after a heavy rain over the weekend.
The wet kitchen - leakages won't go away, even after a repair.
The dry kitchen - leakage was back after the repair. Have draped a piece of plastic to temporarily stop the leak.
The master bedroom - a new leakage.
My dear Lord Krishna, my humble obeisances unto You.
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare,
Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare.
Dear Lord, please support me like you always do
Dear Lord, please give me strength to face all the problems of the house
Dear Lord, please encourage me, please help me
Dear Lord, please nurture me, like you always do
Dear Lord, please help the house, for it is leaking and it is suffering
It is crying, tears are dripping and lining down the walls
Its floors are wet and ceilings damp whenever it rains
And my heart sinks and heavy when i hear the rain
I always love the rain for it is refreshing and its from you
But now, my heart weighs down with pain and worry when its wet outside
Dear Lord, please have pity on the house for it is from you for me
Dear Lord, please give me time and energy to devote to you and things you bless me with.
Amen.

Fun, strenous, happy and tired weekend
What a weekend.
Sunday was especially fun, strenous, happy and tired.
Managed to glue back some loose parquets in the master bedroom and varnish it by lunch time.
Then discovered some tiny water leakage in the bathroom in the same room, which became
a major leak when the pipe snapped.
Took some time to unscrew the bolt from the sink, rushed out with my wife to buy the replacement part. Tried to install the new pipe but a speck of sand got into my eyes and had to stop. Washed eyes and finally got the sand out after some 15 minutes. Got back to the job
and finally completed it.
Went to father-in-law's factory to help out with some packaging work for about an hour an a half.
Visited Mr.Lim's grandmother's.
Wife discovered its GuanYin's birthday tomorrow and proceeded to buy flowers, rice cakes and joss paper.
Had ginger tea at Steven's. Packed dinner - White rice and fried chicken (free curry).
Remembered that I haven't donated anything to Krishna's temple and proceeded to the temple to offer my respect and humble obeisances. Donated some cash. Went back to the car. Went back to temple to donate some more cash for wife. Back to the car.
Back home.
Had dinner.
Read paper.
Bedtime.
Yawn!

Violence is Golden
Violence is Golden (tears are in the eyes)
I hurt myself deep inside
Seeing all the sufferings here
Oh don't it pain to tear with no cry
Oh how painful it is to suffer here
Violence is golden, tears but still no cry
Violence is golden, golden, tears are in the eyes
Talking is cheap, she always fall asleep
Even though i slog for her on the go
How could I suffer so well, i don't know
Pity me, deprived though she know
How many times facing the wall cracklines
Should I tell her off again or try to keep cool
And even if I tried it makes no difference if i cried
Keep to myself, just hurt myself like a fool
Violence is golden, tears but still no cry
Violence is golden, golden, tears are in the eyes
I hurt myself deep inside
Seeing all the sufferings here
Oh don't it pain to tear with no cry
Oh how painful it is to suffer here
Violence is golden, tears but still no cry
Violence is golden, golden, tears are in the eyes
Talking is cheap, she always fall asleep
Even though i slog for her on the go
How could I suffer so well, i don't know
Pity me, deprived though she know
How many times facing the wall cracklines
Should I tell her off again or try to keep cool
And even if I tried it makes no difference if i cried
Keep to myself, just hurt myself like a fool
Violence is golden, tears but still no cry
Violence is golden, golden, tears are in the eyes

Port Dickson
What a weekend !
About an hour and a half drive to Port Dickson on a rainy Saturday.
Dinner was great. The steamed fish we had at the local restaurant.
The beach was fun. The sand, the soak, the crabs.
Had great fun with my wife and her sister.
Was a little tired on Monday though.
Now we are contemplating about a trip to Singapore...

The Fat Arse Song - sung in the tune of YMCA
Fat arse ! you're bringing everyone down
I said, fat arse ! Shit your arse out of this world!
I said, fat arse ! cause you're a selfish clown
There's no need for you in this world
Fat arse ! there's a place you can go
I said, fat arse ! when you're fat and short of breath
You can get your arse there, and I'm sure we'll all
have much good time and get you a wreath
Its good for you to stay put in hell
Its good for you to stay put in hell
They have everything
For you to toil
You can eat all the soil
Its good for you to stay put in hell
Its good for you to stay put in hell
You can get your arse pried
You can get your arse fried
You can cry whenever you feel
Fat arse! Are you listening to me I said, Fat arse,
How do you want to be skinned, I said, Fat arse,
you can dump all your dreams
and you've got to know this one thing
Fat arse, fucked up all by yourself

And just let it stay there, till you go to he-ell
I'm sure hell can help you today
Its good for you to stay put in hell
