The spiritual side of Taufik


A short funny incident I had with little poom poom the other day. Kim was driving my pick up truck while Taufik and I sat in the open air at the back. It was a beautiful night and the sky was clear with a rich sprinkling of stars. Inspired by the majesty of the night, I told my son, "Far loves Allah soooo much. Mommy loves Allah so much." and my son chirped "Taufik love Allah so so so much...Mommy? Allah purple colour?"I had to laugh my head off. Purple is his most favourite colour.I also once read a book about a mulatto boy who lived with a horde of siblings together with his white mom in the black ghettoes. Frustrated about the discrimination he faced, not belonging to either the white or black world, he asked his mom, "What colour is God?" Her answer, "God is the colour of water."If there had been an answer, this was a beautiful answer.Love,Ninap.s. Here is a picture of Taufik on a piggy ride after a walk by the beach in Denmark.
