Childhood Miracle and religious: are not mutual Exclusive but inclusive. everything is

Why I believe in Miracles? Books tell us we gotta see it to believe it.
It’s simple to believe when you are seeing them every year.
One actual Miracle in my childhood is the Indian Thaipusam festival, you can hardly escape it when you live in a country side with another thousand of other races without understanding and experiencing that little bit of their religion and culture. While most foreigners think this is crazy and cruel it is in fact a very normal thing that happen around the Asia world every year, and pretty harmless.
Every year near February, The Hindus celebrate their God Kali with this painful ritual of chanting, going into trans like mental state and piercing their skin with needle and knife as an act or redemption and return to the God’s granting their wishes.
I saw thousands have gone through with the ritual and many of them not even Indians. And they not only survive the ordeal, there’s this one unmistakable miracle, there’s no scar, none at all after that, on their skins.
I’ve never seen anything like it and every year that hour it fascinates me more. My closes Indian friends did it and she got no scar at all after got pierces in the cheeks and neck with a trident shaped fork. It’s both terrifying to see her dance in the trans like state across the streets but also glad because that means her wishes have come true.
If you are truly into travel, Malaysia is one of the best place to be. It’s a funny thing to be ask if you all stay on trees still when I’m really young. HAHA!
Sure back then there’s no internet and there’s hardly any people that knows that Malaysia exists. But ever since I’m born my father is driving a Volkswagen and a Toyota Corolla, we watch TV and video. We watch the Dallas and the Golden Girl to 90210 to now Gossip Girl. We have the once tallest building in the world which is now still the top 3 building in the world, The Petronas Twin Tower. We have built some of the greatest engineering dreams in the world. The first Stormwater and Road traffic system in the world. With all of this international acclaim engineering feats you can hardly imagine these people still staying on trees…… we do have Semi-Homosepien that actually live on trees here though, Orang Utan is their name.
And to say the least we have 90% of the country’s population on connect in one way or another in Broadband and virtual everyone have a cell phones these days. We are more connected than American as a nation and of course those mental isolation problem and privacy defensive attitude of the people here are more severe as well which contributed to people not connecting instead of the other way around as the internet should work.
So if you are looking for something different and yet still you’d be able to connect to your people and you still won’t be too lost. Come to Malaysia. It’s different. It’s a fusion of some of the most interesting culture Asia could offer in a small package.
