Tuesday

Today is Tuesday. Which somehow, happens to be the enlistment day of the new intake. Somehow, I happen to be on duty as one of the ushers. And somehow, I happen to be assigned at the junction to direct the visitors to the exits and sadly, the enlistees to the mustering point.

It’s a ‘nostalgic’ place to be, watching the parents parting with their son and ladies with their loved one.

One last: "instruction, blessing, tears, hugs, kisses, ‘remember to call home’ and ‘I will miss you..’”

Somehow, things which I had always brushed off, actually make me ponder. .

“Some feelings are like wine, gives it some time to age, and the true aroma sets in.”

Join me for a sip?
