Feeling thankful is how I feel now. The greatest present to receive is the sense of content and gratitude that I feel. No matter how much I earn or the value of properties I owe, without sharing, how life can be?

Few years back when I was in school, my mind was set on money and branded items. No matter how badly life has for me, nothing can bring me further away from my set-mind. From many hardships, I struggle for a presence, a name, a status. I need to let people know what I have and what I can achieve.

As time passes and sky is unlimited, people change so do I. I turn to God. I turn to my family. I turn to my faith. Nothing can make me feel more content than myself. I need to satisfy my own need before I make my way to the world. Love, Peace and Happiness are what I believe now. As I mention earlier on, faith is the tool for all lives. Imagine a world without faith? How can one trust someone or something? Take for an example a relation between two sexes. Both need to gain the trust and belief before embarking a journey together. It’s a journey of understanding as well as respect. Nothing can bring two down with the concrete tools both have.

No matter how much money is flowing in my bank accounts or how many properties waiting in my list, as long as I don’t feel content with myself, nothing would. All these are material visions that count only for a short period of happiness. I want a long lasting happiness. A happiness that can be shared by everyone even passer-by.

I turn my life to myself, family and GOD. It revolves with them. Not that I’m a 100% believer in God but somehow or another, it smooths my daily life whenever I trust on something. I believe what comes around goes around in life. Why one should feels frustrated and irritated when aim is not reached? Why? Ask yourself deep in your heart? Is it worth the temper-rush? The best way to do is to look at the problem with a smile on your face and a relax heart. Turn back and don’t let your anger out from your box. Think appreciation that mistakes are made and told to you. All you need to do: CHANGE.

It is as simple as ABC.

In life, if only one can recognize the significant of Trust, Understanding, Faith and Love our world is in its greatest condition.

Descriptive Essay: The Night Market

One of the most interesting places in Malaysia is the night market. You may visit and experience the night market yourselves. Both locals and foreigners agree that the night market is the most common feature in the local society.

The night market begins when the vendors arrive in the late afternoon. More and more goods laden vans arrive to begin a brisk day of business. Most of the vendors busily set out to set up their stalls respectively in order to get ready for a brisk day of business.

The sun gradually sets and the night market picks up momentum. More cars and vans are arriving. By now, the stalls are neatly and strategically arranged to entice their customers. There is an assortment of goods sold ranging from food, toys and clothes, to name a few. A variety of goods is sold at low prices.

Large rainbow-coloured parasols are used to shade the people from rain and shine. A concoction of blaring music can be heard in the night market background amidst the constant shouting. It is an amazing kaleidoscope of sights, sounds, smells and colours.

The night market is known as a haven by local ‘gourmets’ who can enjoy various kinds of mouth-watering local cuisine. Still more people arrive, they come from all walks of life, mingling freely and harmoniously. Crowds are walking up and down in an endless stream. Some of them are stopping by the stalls and haggling before making purchases. Little children tag along, amused and excited. Sprinklings of tourists join in to experience the lifestyle of typical Malaysian folks.

When night falls, lighted lamps brighten up the place, they add gaiety to this atmosphere, and it is like a funfair. The night wears on and the traffic of people recedes. Vendors get a chance to rest their weary legs besides bantering with each other.

By 10.00 pm, all the stalls call it a day. The vendors pack up and close the van doors. One by one, they leave, leaving behind pieces of papers, plastic bags and discarded boxes. It us an eyesore! Finally, the night market disappears. The place becomes quite and still once more.

Note: Night market is known as "pasar malam" in Malay language.
