The gift of giving

-

There's a saying, A friend in need is a friend indeed. Relatively, I don't consider myself a close friend to an ex-colleague.     Yesterday evening,  what started as a Hi, Hello session ended up as therapy and counselling session for her.  I could only offer some words of comfort to her.  Her husband passed away early last year of heart attack and being the sole breadwinner for the whole family she's beginning to feel the burden.  With two growing up kids and a rocky relationship with her mother-in-law, one can imagine the hardship that she's going through now.  I could only listen and advice her tactfully.   I hope that I manage to cheer her up yesterday.

My trip to Miri not only gave me the opportunity to reunite with old friends that I missed dearly but I also took the golden opportunity to learn more about my dad's language. My dad is a Melanau from Kpg Suyong, Balingian. Their melanau dialect differs from the rest of the Melanau dialects from Mukah, Oya, Rejang, Dalat, Matu, Igan & Bintulu. Sad to say that this particular dialect is slowly disappearing. Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm....
