I've always been awed by rainbows. I just love them. They are a sight for sore eyes. What awed me the most about the rainbow when I first learned it in the science class was that rainbows, despite comprising of many colors that makes it's beauty, is actually from one; the light.
That's what we are, multiple in skin shades but are ONE.... the sooner we realize this, the sooner we attain sanctuary, right here where it can never be taken away from us; in our hearts and minds............
My most fav quote:
"He who experiences the unity of life sees his own Self in all beings, and all beings in his own Self, and looks on everything with an impartial eye"
-Siddhartha Gautama Buddha-
Here's a few more worth pondering on:
"For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others"
-Nelson Mandela-

“Racism is man's gravest threat to man - the maximum of hatred for a minimum of reason.”

“It demands great spiritual resilience not to hate the hater whose foot is on your neck, and an even greater miracle of perception and charity not to teach your child to hate”

Not sure why you call it the first Hari Malaysia. Hari Malaysia has been there for a long time (47 years) ... this year is only the first time it is a national public holiday.
Hey, it's "like a virgin touched for the very first time" kinda Hari Malaysia....it ain't a celebration until there's an off day to go with it... ;->
