For the first time ever, I went to Malabar Mosque to celebrate my Eid. I went there with Tas since Musa is a volunteer there. For many years, I've stopped going to the mosque, getting all excited to see sheep (we live in Singapore afterall) and getting all anxious in seeing them getting slaughtered.
And when I was finally there, I got all excited and anxious all over again, like I was a 9 years old kid, seeing it for the very first time.
Is it me or do goats actually scream like human beings? It's like they are really crying for help seriously. I can never have the guts to slaughter one man. There were many incidents when I thought that Musa might get kicked by a goat when he was trying to catch one. But apparently such things never happen, according to him.
Earlier this week, when I told my Miko and Joseph about what Hari Raya Haji was all about, they got grossed out, mostly because they thought it was cruel of us to "kill" the animals. But I said that the meat actually goes to the poor people actually. And like hello, it's not like you guys are vegetarians anyways. You guys eat meat as well, and God knows how those animals were killed. I heard from a Chinese auntie before that there are cases where the animals got dragged till they die.
The only difference is that I got to see it first hand. And this is probably the nicest way to kill an animal, by slaughtering them. Apparently, it is the fastest and the least painful. You guys, on the other hand, just eat the meat that's on your plate, totally clueless on how that meat ended up there in the first place.
Sometimes we don't think before we speak. Then either we hurt someone else's feelings, or we look like total fools.
