I often think of my father. And how he confided in a friend of my decision to leave the National Airlines.
His disappointment would often play in my mind, but I take consolation in those good years we had when I was there.
Today, I was told of Datuk Manja Ismail's loss. That made my thoughts pale in comparison.
Datuk Manja had lost his son this morning, when Muhammad Ikhwanul Ashraf Manja was killed in a road accident involving the car he was in.
I can't bear the thought of anything happening to any of my children.
If you are a parent, take the time to hold your kids tight and remind them that they must always do good to others in order for them to have a fruitful life.
I guess, this is an alarm for the rest of us.
May his soul rest in peace, and may god have mercy on his soul.
Our prayers are with Dato Manja and his family.
