Befrienders Muar

Once upon a time, in the heart of the forest, there lived two unlikely friends: Hare and Tortoise. Hare was known for his boundless energy, while Tortoise was wise but slow-moving.

One day, a terrible drought struck the forest. The once-lush greenery turned brown, and the animals suffered. Food became scarce, and despair settled over the creatures. Hare, who usually raced around, now sat dejectedly under a withered tree.

Tortoise, noticing Hare's sadness, approached him. "My friend," he said, "we mustn't lose hope. Even in the darkest times, there's a way forward."

"But how?" Hare replied, his ears drooping. "The rivers have dried up, and the sun scorches everything."

Tortoise thought for a moment. "Listen carefully," he said. "Beyond the hills lies a legendary well—the
Well of Endless Hope. They say its waters can revive even the most desolate land."

Hare's eyes widened. "But it's so far away! And I'm fast, but not that fast."

Tortoise smiled. "That's where our strengths come into play. You'll run ahead, and I'll follow at my own pace. Together, we'll reach the well."

And so, Hare set off, his legs a blur as he raced across the barren landscape. Tortoise plodded behind, steady and determined. Along the way, they encountered challenges: thorny bushes, steep cliffs, and scorching sands. But they pressed on, each playing their part.

Days turned into weeks. Hare grew tired, but he remembered Tortoise's unwavering spirit. "I can't give up," he thought. "Tortoise believes in me."

Finally, they reached the hill overlooking the Well of Endless Hope. Hare collapsed, panting, while Tortoise arrived, his shell dusty but intact.

The well shimmered—a deep pool of crystal-clear water. Hare dipped his paw, and the water sparkled like diamonds. "Is this real?" he wondered.

Tortoise nodded. "Drink, my friend. Let hope flow through you."

Hare drank, and a surge of energy filled him. His legs felt lighter, and his heart lifted. "Thank you," he said to Tortoise. "You kept me going."

Tortoise smiled. "And you reminded me that speed isn't everything. Hope and determination matter more."

Together, they returned to the forest. Hare shared the well's water with every creature, and soon, life returned. The trees sprouted new leaves, and the rivers flowed once more.

From then on, Hare and Tortoise were inseparable. They taught the other animals about hope, resilience, and the power of working together. Whenever someone felt defeated, they'd say, "Remember the Well of Endless Hope."

And so, dear friend, when you feel lost or hopeless, think of Hare and Tortoise. Remember that even in the darkest times, there's a well of hope waiting for you.

May this tale inspire you to keep going, even when the journey seems impossible.

#义路有爱

过去的星期六，我们有幸迎来了YB陈鸿宾和YB杨美盈亲临我们的会所，与我们交流。

这次的探访让我们深刻感受到了社会领导对关爱生命和情绪支持的重视。YB陈鸿宾和YB杨美盈不仅与我们的义工们深入探讨预防自杀议题，还表达了他们对这一现象的深切关切与支持。这样的关注激励着我们更加坚定地投身于情绪扶助和自杀防治的工作。

此外，令人感动的是，YB杨美盈慷慨地捐款RM10,000 给予本会，用于我们的CARE Project活动基金。这个基金将被用于推广自杀防治和心理健康教育，从而帮助更多的人了解和应对心理健康问题。

感谢YB陈鸿宾和YB杨美盈，您们的光临和慷慨支持，是我们前进的力量，也是无数心灵的希望之光。让我们一起努力，为更多人带来温暖、关爱和希望。

Last Saturday, we were fortunate to welcome YB Taj Hong Pin and YB Yeo Bee Yin to our center, where they had a warm and friendly interaction with our volunteers.
This visit deeply emphasized the importance of social leaders caring about mental health and emotional support. YB Taj Hong Pin and YB Yeo Bee Yin not only engaged in insightful discussions with us about su***de prevention but also expressed their profound concern and support for this critical issue. Such attention motivated us to dedicate ourselves even more firmly to the work of su***de prevention and emotional wellness.
Furthermore, it was touching that YB Yeo Bee Yin generously donated RM10,000 to our organization for our CARE Project fund. This fund will be used to promote su***de prevention and mental health education, helping more people understand and cope with mental health issues.
We express our gratitude to YB Taj Hong Pin and YB Yeo Bee Yin for your support, which has given us a lot of encouragement.
Let us work together to bring warmth, care, and hope to more people.
