It’s February now. Could hardly believe that January passed by so quickly. Too occupied, may be. Yes, my kids and I have been very busy with our own business. Last month I attended our PTA AGM, and declined to be elected as the secretary. No big deal, but just wanted to focus more on my involvement in spiritual activities. I have been the PTA’s secretary since 2005. Before that, I was an assistant secretary. In 2007, I was ‘called’ to join the Parochial Church Council (PCC) as a member. And last year, I was the PCC’s assistant secretary. Why secretarial posts? I could have answered that long ago. All my minutes wasn’t that well written, as I am not that good in writing.
February, too, reminds me of my 26 years of being a husband, and also a dad! Valentine’s Day, of course. Twenty-six years? Wow! How time flies. And, yes! I will be 46 next month – on the 20th March. But I always tell myself – don’t mind the age, but look at what have been done and yet to be done.

Chester, my younger brother, called me from Bintulu. Told me that he would be home for Christmas. He also told me to call Juliana, to come home, as he could not reach her by phone. I told Chester that Juliana and her family had just left for Serian a day ago after a very brief visit to Betong. After a brief conversation over the phone, Chester insisted me to call Juliana asking her to come to Betong for Christmas. I was wondering, is Chester having something in his mind this season? Could it be regarding our bilik in Stambak Ulu? … or something else. Only God knows. What I know for sure is that, Chester is missing all of us all these while. He longs for a ‘once in a while’ family gathering.
