Finally!!!!

Thank goodness, after a year of creating this blog, i am able to write in thanks to OP Ee Van, who showed me the way.
My A-Musings of Second Thoughts aims at looking at things in a different perspective.
It is not meant to be abnormal, but just an avenue of letting the right side of the brain do some work. Being under utilised, it is a shame that we do not use it as often as possible.
Today is Deepavali or Festivals of Lights or Good over Evil and celebrated by our Hindu brothers.The Lights here is a way of showing a clearer picture or a brighter outlook of life, after being blurred by Evil. There is a story about this according to Evil being overtaken by Good.
Likewise the Lantern Festivals of the Chinese too has similar meaning...celebrating Good over Evil.
Muslims celebrate Hari Raya Aidil Fithri as an end to the compulsory obligations of the month long of fasting during Ramadan.
We are taught that Aidil Fithri is not a celebration of having to fast for a month, but more of a signal of ending the month long fasting and we are encouraged to fast another 6 days after the one day break of the month long fast...
There are some that fast 3 months before Ramadan begins and some that fast every Monday and Thursday...
The connection of Evil here in this case is the Evil that ONE has in ONESELF....
It is not the Evil of others.
I find this very true because the Evil in ONESELF is normally worst than the Evil of others...
Do i make sense here?
If i do please give some feedbacks and that will encourage me to write more...in the future..
