Father and Son Bonding

Today while walking to catch a bus to watch a movie in town, Ish said he likes to think this outing as a 2-hour father-son bonding moment! Actually it is true and is something that we greatly cherish while living in Holland, that we do spend quality time together with our kids. May not be the case in Brunei when parents are forever busy with all sort of commitments whereas children don’t really know what common things to do worth going together with parents apart from going to family functions.

We watched Kite Runner – an excellent and brilliantly made movie. It has quite a moving storyline, will guarantee to shed a few tears along the way, giving a unique depiction of living in Afghanistan before and after the Russian war. The ending was quite poigant with the main actor starting to rediscover his faith. What were also amazing are a few verses of Koran beautifully read at some of the scenes. Most of the actors and actresses seemed to be Afghanis themselves.
