It rained last night…yes! Alhamdulillah…
Thank you, Allah...
For an hour or so, it went. Heavy and strong…..
My other half and I were so happy, we went out, to have a
feel of the heavenly drops on our heads, even though the clock showed that it
was a quarter to midnight…our neighbours might have thought we have gone crazy…we
did not care…
It was such a wonderful sight! Our droopy plants because of the long duration of heat
spell, suddenly became alive and swayed in the winds, amid the pitter patter, as
though they were enjoying themselves…singing and dancing, full of praises to
the Bringer of Life…
This morning, we had a garden breakfast…taking in breaths of
fresh air (which days before were affected by the haze).
Last
week, we tried or hands on playing badminton (not because someone said something
about the game, which became an issue, okay? :-) ) but because we just wanted to loosen our
hinges and get our sweats out. But then, only for a few minutes. The sweltering
heat pushed us back indoors. But at least we still had the opportunity to enjoy
breakfast in the garden.
We moved into this new abode of ours just a little over a
year ago.
Since then, it has given us countless moments of pleasure and serenity…
Talking about the recent bouts in Dengue Fever…This morning,
I made some cuttings of the tiny blue flowery fragrant leaved plants which I
bought from a flower garden at Sungai Buloh quite some time ago. The lady who
sold it said the plant is from China and loves the sun. “It is a natural mosquito
repellent, you know?”
I think I believe her
because there are hardly any mosquitoes around the garden here. The cuttings
were for my colleagues and friends…easy to propagate. Just place the cuttings
in soil and watch the leaves unfold…Insha Allah…they add a vibrant colour to
your garden too!
Thank you Allah, once again…for everything…
