firstly before i begin, i would like to take this oppurtunity to wish all my Muslim friends,
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir & Batin.
okay, lets begin.
just now for mentoring, i was chosen in a group of 5, to clean Nek Rahimah's house who lives alone and can't manage to clean the house by herself. but before that, we packed food to give to them. simple food such as sardines, biscuits, rice, maggie, ikan bilis and many more. we even give them Rendang, Serunding and some Kurma.
when we got to Nek Rahimah's house, at first i thought her house was the teruk case; very dirty and messy, but when we first step in, she was very welcoming. i looked at the condition of her house, not bad. not soo messy, just very dusty. i just wipe and dust her table, cupboard and door. the boys did; sweep, mop, wash the toilet and change the light bulb.
and she was soo funny. always melatar. she told us abt her children. looks like she got some problems with them. and what she said really touched my heart. she said ' if a mother can take care of 10 children, then how come 10 children cannot take care of 1 mother?'. i felt like crying. now i know how they feel. ade anak, tapi buat macam takde. then after we finished cleaning her house, we took our leave. she thanked us loads of times.
we then went to the other house to see how they are doing. a couple stayed there. the wife, bedridden. only have the husband to rely on. the problem is that the wife refuses to wear pampers so she always urinated on the spot. that's why there's alot of kain for them to lipat. 'biler nak Game?' ahaha! the pak cik then thanked them and he cried. soooo sad. i was abt to cry too. really very touching.
actually, they don't lack of anything. they just lack of Love. they Have children, but their children thinks that money is everything. that work is improtant, that everything else is much more important than their own parents. they just want one thing for Hari Raya, that is their children to visit them at least once. i feel sad lah that this kind of things is happening to our community.
so people, don't stop loving your Parents. just think, they take care of you since you were born. even though you argue or fight with them, they are still your parents no matter what. nothing is going to change that.
love, dyania <3
