Sorry that it took a while for me to write about my trip recently back to KL. It was fun yet very long I feel. It’s different now that I got adjusted to Omaha as my HOME and visiting family in Malaysia for 1 mth seems long. The weather was too hot for the 1st 2.5 weeks, then it rain almost everyday after that. Make it so much harder to go out and enjoy the cities.
But of course it was still fun seeing everybody, especially my newest family members…my grand niece Qasih and nephews Miqdat and Rayyan. Such a pleasure. I’m sure they won’t know me by the time I visit them again the next time, but sure they will hear about us a lot hopefully.
Visiting there is different now, without my Mom, since she passed, things are very different and the family seems to be a bit on the edge with issues surrounding us. Not sure how the family will stay close anymore, almost everybody have issues to each other and they are not as close as they used to be. Indeed they took the issues sometimes too personal and never let go what happenned ; just forgive and forget. Why it is so hard to do? Isn’t it sunnah to forgive someone? After all, we are family right? Why holding the grudge to each other and treat others like strangers and saying things that will hurt someone’s feeling. ‘Ikutkan hati mati, ikutkan mulut binasa’
I know most of the time, things are not reported to me and when I come back, I will be overwhelming with family issues, it’s never fun and being me that hate to be on either side and doing my best to be equal to everyone, it’s just too much to handle sometimes.
Well… anyway I hope the family will figure it out soon. As for me, I consider myself lucky to be away frm situation like this most time. I have my own life here and pretty happy with it. My home, family and my home business. Loving my own independent for sure….as usual.
While I was there, and have to depends on family to take me to places, it was really had to rely on them even when I don’t want to, but leaving me with no choice. I know sometimes I really menyusahkan mereka, but I appreciate it very much that they help accommodating me and taking me to places I need to go. When the independence is taking away frm me, I feel a bit unhappy that I have to be dependent on friends and family. It’s not a nice place to be and sometime I feel unwanted. Would you blame me? And some of them not that sensitive to these issues.
It was a highly stress trip to begin with, travelling with just me and Jeffrey, have to find babysitter for 1 week during my business conference, have to ask people to give me a ride and pick me up and staying with them. Not sure I would do this again without the presence of my husband.
I pretty much meet almost all my family I would say, I didn’t manage to see Amie, Ira & Oboi. But I hope they forgive me. I tried, but they time is conflicting with mine and I do not have time to manage around it. I was really busy especially the last week I was there.
The purpose of this trip is also to spend time with my friends. I didn’t manage to see everyone I wanted too, but I would like to thank you for those who made the time to see me. Very much appreciated. I understand that it’s hard to spare some time for me when everyone is bz working and with their family. For my best friend and business partner Bai & family, thank you so much for seeing us many times we were they and spent the time with me and Jeffrey. That means a lot babe. Love u!
