Happy Birthday Malaysia!! (To Zanne, Jordan & Sarah too^^)

A friend of mine said, and I quote, "Back when we were younger, the "RACE" issue was about who can run the fastest."

It is very true what he said. I could remember when I was younger, I don't remember having the "race issue" with any of my friends in school. I grew up in a national school, with lots of Malay and Indian friends & many of them were my best friends. Back then, we just seem to look at people as equals & the same. Sounds naive huh? Maybe being naive is not a BAD thing after all.

As I grew up, I start to see lots of stuff I've never thought of before about other races. All the commotion about the "race issue" by adults around me slowly but definitely causes a great impact in the nation. I see lots of my Chinese friends dreaming of leaving this country & start a better life overseas, away from this "unfair" country. All of a sudden, Malaysia doesn't seem to be as "perfect" as I've always thought it was when I was younger.

Sounds depressing? Well, I still BELIEVE that there is HOPE for MALAYSIA. Little gestures of kindness by people, the friendships between little children without a care about their races, & most of all, God's promises secures my faith in a better future for Malaysia. I truly believe that one day, we'll be able to see a Malaysia that is like how we see it when we were younger.

I have faith that as a Christian, if I, along with the rest of my brothers & sisters in Christ, would humble ourselves & SEEK His face, HE will surely come & heal OUR land. So, let's continue to have faith in this country that God has blessed us with. Be blessed, & have a HAPPY MERDEKA!!!

P.S: Happy Birthday to some of my friends too. A very Blessed Birthday to Zanne (on the 29th) & our Merdeka babies, Jordan & Sarah. Be blessed & continue to make a difference in this country with the testimony of LOVE that God has blessed EACH of YOU with. Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MALAYSIA!!

-> HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU GUYS...LOVE U ALL =)
