This is a poem written by Muhammad Haji Salleh

                                          

The physical journey that I traverse is the journey of the soul,
Transport of the self from a fatherland to a country collected by sight and mind,
The knowledge that sweats from it is a stranger's knowledge,
The changing realities


It's true I have growled at my mother and grandmother
But only after having told of my predicament
The wife that I began to love in my loneliness,
In the country that alienated me,
They took to their pre decisions,

LISTENING FOR ENJOYMENT

This time I want to share about listening for enjoyment. Skills are not just required for serious, formal and academic purposes. We depend much on our listening skills during our leisure time. And even while driving the car, we need our listening skills to be able to listen to and to appreciate what we hear on the radio. Listening for pleasure includes listening to songs, poems, and other aesthetic and enjoyable materials that we indulge in our daily lives.

Listening in these situations require sophisticated and efficient skills of listening.For example, in listening to songs, we need to listen for the lyrics amidst the background of music. Knowing the words in a song provides us with additional pleasure allowing us to relate to the images and connotations the words trigger in the lyrics of the song.Thank you for reading my post .. I love you all...
