We (my wife & me) found it a weird suggestion as how can feeding fishes improve or increase my good karma? Nevertheless, we decided to give it a try since there's no other important activities to attend to on Sunday. ;-)
So we bought a loaf of bread and got MRT to Bugis before walking towards Rochor Road.. oh just before we had lunch at Rochor Centre i think.. The food court Kopitiam there has a stall that sells delicious BaKuTeh soup and stew dark pork leg. Simply wonderful! ;-)
And to our surprise, the canal is filled with thousands of fishes!!! Mostly small ones.. not sure what species they were.. but from the picture you can see thousands were 'attacking' the single white slice of bread floating on the water..
We observed the fishes and found it quite interesting and relaxing.. i felt kind of funny or a little embarrassed throwing white bread into the canal.. hope i'm not breaking law.. few other people were fishing there too.. ;P
We also saw a bird trying to prey on the hungry fishes feasting on the bread.. It was quite a sight in the busy roads of Rochor, which is very near the city..
So, will feeding fishes with bread improves my karma? Mmm,.. at least it helps me relax, makes me feel good, recharged and in touch with a little nature and fishes.. Life's simple side..
