2nd day.....

2nd July 2015 (15 Ramadhan 1436)

First day of my retirement, I sent my daughter to her attachment in JPMC.  We left around 0630 hours.  After I dropped Aqeel, thought my appointment was around 0830 hours, As the place is new to me I decided to go and look for it.  I reached there 30 minutes early.  The meeting was a promising one.

I left around 1000hours. I decided to go to Sharif Ali Mosque in Sengkurung as it is one of my favourite mosque.  After solat Dhuhaa, I continue reading the Quran (we have this daily Quranic group through whatsapp) and update it.

I left Sultan Sharif Ali Mosque 1100 hours.  I dropped by HSBC to bank in for Aqeel. After that I went to Hjh Mariam Jerudong Mosque for my zohor prayer.

Sitting in the two mosques gave me time to reflect as I was not rushing.  It showed me that the things that we rushed for unnecessary in our life time, if it is not directing us towards Allah, it is useless. As we cant reap the benefits in Jannah. All good deeds we did in this dun ya, we will reap it in Jannah.  May Allah grand us jannatul firdaus.  Aamiin.

Driving along the road to JPMC will let us pass the horses of Jerudong Polo Club.  They have their morning exercises around the field.  Horses have been one of my favorite animals.  And I used to come with kids for horse riding lessons.  Love it. When they reach secondary level, we stopped for a while.  Also it is my late dad favorite animal.

When in JPMC, I met a few of cancer patients in my life.  Some left us and some still alive.  Through their determination and support from families and friends, they are able to get through it. Remind me to always be thankful for what I have.

Picked up Aqeel and return home.
