...a day filled with hugs and forgiveness


Eid is just round the corner...3 days more to be exact. Today at work all the lecturers are going around to asked for forgiveness with lots of hugging and more hugging. Emmm definitely a festive feeling today. As they say to clean the slate for the new year. That's the beauty of Eid it's a time of Maaf Zahir Batin... This is the time when we take the opportunity to go up to the person that you might have offended, make a mistake with or just feel out of sort and asked for forgiveness. To me it is a good concept but the sad part is the minute Eid is over it's as if we have forgotten the bersalam-salaman that we did before. Well, isn't that very human...
