DAY 1 (The Introduction)

Greetings...

19th of April was our first day at the Rumah Amal Limpahan Kasih for the Social Engagement subject and it was the first time ever we met the kids there. I won't be telling you the things we did at the orphanage but instead I will tell you the things I learn from them.

First of all, for them the time is gold. If they have the free time even for a five minutes before lunch, they will always praise Allah by singing or reciting Du'a. They really take Islam seriously because they only learn religious subjects at the school (which is kind of sad because for me they need proper education in order to survive the outside world when they grow up). However, they are provided with skills of managing a business which is for me at least a good way on making them a better person.

Second of all, unity. They are like sisters and always protect each other. When you ask them questions, if one person cannot answer, the others will. They protect each other, they eat together and perform the solah together. They even know each others' full name! Plus, they are very polite and outspoken at the same time which for me is very good so that their thoughts can be heard and considered.

Well today I am going for the second visit and will be conducting a slot with them. I will keep you updated when we finished today's (26 April 2015) visit with the new slots. Till next time.
