Yesterday was Wednesday and Wednesday's runs are headed by Mustaqim. It's the last run for me in the month of June 2012. It was one of the Reach Out's special CSR. This time, Reach Out run was joined by TV9 doing a documentary for its Ramadan special. I was invited by Pete to join in the run. I would shy away from cameras but because it is for the good cause, I took up the invitation.

5.00 pm - Arrived at Bus Stand Klang with young Andrew, Beary and Vincent. People has started to line up. It was not hot but it was stuffy with the haze in KL. Pete, Feexa, Sazliana and the team from Time.com were there. Oyeen the cat was there but he looked tired. The black cat was there also. In addition, Vincent and Beary found a pigeon who looked quite lost... erm.. must had lost its homing device... The man who had the dislocated shoulder 2 weeks back came to collect the food. He seemed to have recovered. By 6.30 pm, it was all over and we went home.
Today, I conquered my FEAR and WORRY by going to KL alone. It was not easy but I DID IT. 10.30 pm - left all my cards at home, just had RM 50 in the wallet for petrol and emergency used. The song on air was Bruno Mars -today my life begins. How cool is that!!! 11.00 pm - Reached PJ Hilton, it started to drizzle. Had a chat with the staff there before heading off to KL. 11.30 pm - Saw an accident involving 2/3 cars..oh oh worry alarm went off. I was thinking what would happen if my car break down.. Immediately AB came into my mind. His advice to me was be kind and compassionate to the thought... it will fade away with the WORRY in hand. 12.00 am - Reached Al-Wira. Joined Pete, Feeza, Rohainie and her friends. Later, we were joined by Melvin, Melvin JR and another volunteer. 12.30 am - The run started. I was met by Azizul at Puduraya. 12.50 am - Saw a homeless stricken with fever at Bangkok Bank. The usual homeless gave me smiles when I saw them. I didn't talk long with them because I had food to give out, 1.15 am - Masjid Negara. Most of the homeless here are male. Pity them, it was a cold night. 1.40 am - Lost city. I saw a 4 months old baby with the mum sleeping under the bridge. The baby is beautiful and was sleeping like an angel. There's a river, River Klang, which was risen very fast because it was raining tonight. Hopefully, the homeless sleeping there are safe. 2.15 am Masjid India. There were many homeless sleeping there today. I saw a homeless and his cat sleeping under a blanket. It was beautiful. 2.45 am Kotaraya. There was a Myanmar who was hurt in a fight. He was bleeding from the nose. This was the first time I saw such a situation. He refused medical attention. So, Pete just left some medication for him. Then off we went to Maybank to finish up the food. I saw a cockroach searching for food next to the sleeping homeless. 3.15 am Food Distribution end. I started my journey home. I felt great. |
