Still remember that i blogged about this venue 2years back before & here i am again, with much cooler experience..!
In my Hawaian pants & cap not forgetting sun block, after settled down with some yummy meals i headed out together with sis EMay & Aunt Mary for some frisbee game. After a few throw outs, musculour sis Emay threw the frisbee so far that Aunty & i had to chase till the other end to get it. Somehow when we got our frisbee we heard some1 shouting, then we looked around. There was a man holding a baby in his hand with his lil girl standing next to him. That man's feet got stucked under the mud till his knee & he's unmovable. Gosh~ then Aunty & i went over to help out. Just only a few seconds i turned around there i saw Aunty was struggling to balance herself. What the...OMG! The more she struggled the more she was sinking. I quickly went back to help her then WHOOSH!! Both my feet suddenly went underneath2..what the.. i can't move..stucked.. Somehow Aunty was manage to get out & she came over to my side. I was yelling Aunt not to come near me as she is big size & heavy, surely she will fall~ I tried to move my feet but it's getting worse. I felt something sharp underneath the mud, i started to freak out. I looked around, the beach was so far away & Sis Emay just looked @us helplessly...SHIT! I was stuck i did no know what to do..
"No No don't come near me Aunt Mary!""Come girl reach out your hand to me""No don't come near me! It's ok leave me alone~ call my sis..."
"What r u afraid of, Jesus is with us. We don't have to be afraid. Come girl~ give me your hand"
Her calm voice touched me... She came near to me & i stretched out my hand, she grabbed me tightly with only 1pull she got me out from mud stuck... & she's still standing! Thanks Aunt Mary.. Both of us lost our slippers in the mud though..
You know~ there were many times when we were in bad situation be it when we face obstacles in our works, financial problems or even life threatening situations, we either seek friends, loan sharks or 3rd parties for help & we have forgotten that we have an Almight God up there, around us... things would just be worse if we only fix our eyes on our problems..
there was a victim that fell...
haha just kidding.... d gal above is fake1
When we got back to our picnic site, there was a brother who think that Aunty & I were busy body. We want to help that man but end up both of us being the victims. He told us "Don't bother him la!" You know~ In this kind of situation... as bro sis in God's family, does the word ever exists? Would u still said that to us when both Aunt & I eventually fell underneath while we need help? Situation like this, u may have 2ways to respond. 1 is to turn a blind eye & don't bother, 2 is to try ur every efforts to help. So folks~ which1 are u...

so @d end, the man's wife & other people went to his aid, 1st save the baby then the kid, took some time for the man to dig up though.. I asked the locals is such incidents frequently happen, & the reply yes. Then i started to notice that there were many more victims of mud stuck.. kids teens adults heading to the public toilet wearing their knee length grey stockings (muddy feet)... U know folks... what if there was tsunami & these people got stuck at the mud here... or what if the tide came back to the shore with these people's leg immobile... Back to the man just now, what if the man lost his balance when he struggled & dropped his baby...i doubt if the baby crawl away or just wonder deeper into the mud herself... If u ever have this "Don't bother" attitude...perhaps it's time to change.. u will make a difference~

Had great time playing baseball & running around the "home" tho i was lousy at hitting the baseball. There was a group of youngsters having fellowship singing "Soraklah hallelujah soraklah hal..." There were also a bunch of good friends came together & had their camp activities. I wish to have this sort of thing too, going backpacking, hiking, adventures with a group too... Ahh~ 28/5/10, a day that i would like to remember~
