Young at heart

I like to socialise with young people because they are resourceful and innovative.this morning at the park,i was chatting with my young fitness pals.Rumi was asking me and the other Chinese girl to converse in Mandarin with him or he will lose touch with his chinese proficiency as if you dont use it,you will lose it.the same goes for building up muscles.the other fit Malay girl was praising the sports shoes New Balance when they noticed the pair of Asics trainers that my son bought for my birthday.they told me it was a good brand for running.i told them i buy cheap sports shoes that were poorly designed.they advised against it as it doesnt protect the heel or provide cushioning from injuries.i learn a lot from the young as the gals taught me how to balance on a stretchable elastic band.the chinese gal n i taught Romi n an elderly Malay pak cik some simple greetings in Cantonese n Mandarin.i told the elderly malay man its nice to interact in each others language so altho i switch code between cantonese,malay and english,at heart im still proud to be a Malaysian.he laughed when i told him although our bodies get old,but we must remain young at heart.Berhati hati,walau pun badan dah berusia tapi di dalam hati masih MUDA.so we have a party that is Muda and the hati yang MUDA likes to party.one nation,one heart and mind.
