Paint my life;

More than words;

2012-02-10T20:43:00.002+08:00

We all create boundaries within themselves, don't you agree? Some boundaries are worth creating. Some are hurtful. Some are offensive. Some boundaries are created due to experiences we face in life. Sometimes it is because of the things we were taught since young.

Boundaries created by ourselves within ourselves are not necessarily bad. However, presently, the discovery of boundaries in some people around me makes me wonder and ponder.

When I wonder, I tend to put myself in other people's shoes and look at why some things are happening to them.

The realities I discover are more than words can say.

"If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination. The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying. "Here comes number seventy-one!"
Richard M. Devos

Indeed. It is all worth it.

Hello world!

Life gets really challenging when we are faced with new changes and new opportunities, don't you think so? And if you don't face these challenges, you will never know what you are worth. Some of the most meaningful experiences and lessons in life can come from the challenges that enter our lives. Hence, challenges should be embrace with arms wide open and an open heart! Most certainly those who have gone through challenges will understand the point I am trying to convey here. (:

Allow me to share an excerpt from my journal entry on 10 January 2012:

"Oh how I treasure my beauty sleep at night. How I treasure the darkness in my room at night which helps me to get in the mood of a peaceful sleep. How I treasure my comfy pillows and my bed. How I treasure the time to relax in my room. Oh how I look forward for a rest at home after a meaningful day at work."

All of the above, realisation upon realisation dawned on me after I started my attachment. Hahaha! I find it both amusing and amazing of the wonders which my attachment is bringing into my life.

I am starting to adapt to this whole 'work routine'. The routine must be filled with sufficient rest/sleep, sufficient positive energy, breakfast, lunch, dinner. The key to a productive day at work is an organised routine!

"Insyallah, ada jalannya."

One day;

2012-01-14T22:25:00.001+08:00

One fine day! (;

Tidak bersyarat;

2012-01-02T00:18:00.000+08:00

Mencintai tidak semestinya memiliki. Rindu tidak semestinya akan terubat. Namun, bukankah itu asam garam kehidupan? Cinta dan kasih sayang itu harus ikhlas dan tidak bersyarat. Jika cinta dan kasih sayang itu suci, ia akan tetap membawa bahagia kepada sesiapa sahaja.

Goonja sa hai koi iktara, lyrics & translation

o re manwa tu toh baawra hai..
tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai..
tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai.. baawre..
kyun dikhaye sapne tu sote jaagte..
jo barse sapne boond boond..
nainon ko moond moond..
nainon ko moond moond..
jo barsein sapne boond boond..
nainon ko moond moond..
kaise main chaloon.. dekh na sakoon
anjaane raaste..
O heart, you're mad,
you only know what you think,
you only know what you think, o mad (heart),
why you show me dreams sleeping and awake,
as dreams rain drop by drop,
closing the eyes, closing the eyes,
as dreams rain drop by drop,
closing the eyes,
How do I walk, I can't see,
the unknown paths..

goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara..
goonja sa hai koi iktara..
goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara..
goonja sa hai koi iktara.. iktara..
dheeme bole koi iktara iktara..
dheeme bole koi iktara..
goonja sa hai koi iktara iktara..
goonja sa hai koi iktara..

Some iktara has echoed,
some iktara has echoed,
some iktara plays softly,
some iktara has echoed..

sun rahi hoon sudhbudh kho ke koi main kahani..
poori kahani hai kya kise hai pata..
main toh kisiki ho ke yeh bhi na jaani..
rut hai yeh do pal ki ya rahegi sada..
kise hai pata.. kise hai pata..

I'm listening to some story, with my consciousness lost,
what is the whole story, who knows,
I became someone (else)'s and didn't even know
whether this is a season of two moments or forever,
who knows, who knows...

Given the word;

2011-12-10T19:59:00.001+08:00

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

This is such a challenge for me! But I cannot go back on my word now. I have given my word. I ought to strive on until I complete. I have to stand by my promise.

I have to remain true to my words.

I can do it
I can do it
I CAN DO IT!

All The Love In The World;

2011-12-04T09:31:00.001+08:00

This morning, I woke up and I realised last night I fell asleep listening to the song 'Linger' by The Cranberries. Hence, I sang the song this morning. I listened to myself singing and I laughed. Hahaha! I feel SILLY but HAPPY. You know?

As for the song above - All the love in the world by The Corrs, it's my first time listening to its full song. Lovely lyrics! Looks like I have another song to sing to! Hehe.

"Still I believe

I'm missin' somethin' real

I need someone who really sees me

Don't wanna wake up alone anymore

Still believin' you'll walk through my door

All I need to know it's for sure

Then I'll give all the love in the world."

A great day ahead;

2011-12-04T08:50:00.000+08:00

I'm starting to love the Music and Movement lessons during PD! Anticipating to do it with children when I go for attachment in January.

Now that I have been doing research on suitable music and movement for young children, I feel that, Music and Movement adds an element of joy to the surroundings.

Hearing Jason Wade sing this song is such a joy. Having said that, I still prefer the original band singing this song. Keane sings it beautifully. (:

This video and song is amazing. What beauty! Credits to the person who made the video! (:

Cuba lihat dengan mata hati.

2011-10-04T19:58:00.000+08:00

Kadang kadang apabila kita berjalan kita hanya berjalan tanpa benar benar mengamati keadaan sekeliling. Jarang kita mendongak ke langit dan melihat keajaiban semesta alam, keajaiban yang maha esa. Pernah terlintas ke di fikiran bahawa, dengan melihat keajaiban tuhan, ia dapat memberi kita suatu kesedaran dan ketenangan?

Menakjubkan bukan?

Segi apa?

2011-10-04T19:50:00.000+08:00

Tergerak hati untuk membuat pembaharuan. Tapi dari segi apa? Hmm.

2011-09-27T23:59:00.004+08:00

You are fortunate . I hope you know that. Treasure what you have.
I may not be as fortunate but I am grateful for what I have. (:

Body Mists

A natural body splash fragrance that leaves a light refreshing aroma on the skin. Use after the shower, bath or for light refresher. Can be used on linen and pillows for a refreshing smell before guests. Body mist for women are very popular.

Fragrances can alter moods in men and women, yet many don't like heavy perfumes. These body splashes also called body mists.

Body Mists or sometimes called splashes are fragrances that are lighter than colognes and perfumes. They are misted over the entire body or they are misted onto drapes, linens and clothes.

Quite an impactful movie for me considering that I can relate to some parts of the movie. I am looking forward to read the book. (:

"Kadang kala kebahagiaan datang bertandang di pintu kita. Namun, kita memilih untuk mengusir dan membiarkan ia berlalu pergi di hadapan mata.

Kita merasakan kebahagiaan bukan milik kita. Seribu satu alasan diberi untuk membiarkan kebahagiaan pergi. Kita ragu ragu dengan kehadiran sebuah keindahan.

Andaikata kebahagiaan kita terima, seringkali kita terima dengan penuh rasa kedaifan. Kadang kala pula, kita seakan sudah sebati dengan duka sehinggakan kita terkilan untuk meninggalkan kepahitan demi sebuah kebahagiaan. Aneh bukan?

Tatkala kebahagiaan mula luput dan samar-samar, kita mula mendambakannya, merintih mahukannya.

Sayangnya, kadangkala kebahagiaan hanya datang sekali dalam kehidupan dan sekali ia pergi, jarang sekali ia berpatah kembali."

- Karya ku 3 tahun yang lalu.

The past and the future;

2011-08-02T20:44:00.002+08:00

"All of life is a coming home. Salesmen, secretaries, coal miners, beekeepers, sword swallowers, all of us. All the restless hearts of the world, all trying to find a way home. It's hard to describe what I felt like then. Picture yourself walking for days in the driving snow; you don't even know you're walking in circles. The heaviness of your legs in the drifts, your shouts disappearing into the wind. How small you can feel, and how far away home can be.

Home. The dictionary defines it as both a place of origin and a goal or destination. And the storm? The storm was all in my mind. Or as the poet Dante put it: In the middle of the journey of my life, I found myself in a dark wood, for I had lost the right path. Eventually I would find the right path, but in the most unlikely place."

- Patch Adams.

I wonder why;

2011-08-02T20:31:00.002+08:00

I dreamt of you last night. You turned your back on me. I wonder why.

Do it now;

2011-07-30T22:35:00.001+08:00

Create memories now because tomorrow may not be yours or those whom you love.

You know how sometimes you want to spend time with you loved ones, take pictures, laugh more and talk about random things? You may end up telling yourself there is always a tomorrow. Please don't delay.

Sticking it out;

2011-07-28T23:05:00.001+08:00

"Unfortunately, honey pie, new people are only new for a day. After that, they're just people. Who'll excite you, disappoint you, scare you a little bit. And boy do I know how tempting it is to run away when that happens. It's good for avoiding things. But the problem is that you end up avoiding yourself. Avoiding people you love. You end up avoiding life. So I've decided to start setting an example for you girls. I'm going to try showing you what sticking it out looks like. Really get to know people. And let people get to know us. I don't promise to be any good at it, but I will try. Because I want you and Zoe to be better at this than I am. I want you to learn how to let people in."
- The Perfect Man.

The moments;

2011-07-20T21:40:00.005+08:00

‎"Bottom line is, even if you see them coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So, what are we, helpless? Puppets? Nah. The big moments are gonna come, you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are."
- "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" Becoming: Part 1 (1998).

Yeah, the big moments are always coming. I usually trust myself to know what to do. But sometimes, I ask myself, "What do I do?"

Learn to forgive again;

2011-07-07T21:09:00.002+08:00

"Sometimes we must try to view the actions of those around us with forgiveness. We must realize that they are going on the only road they can see. Sometimes we cannot raise our chins and see eye to eye, so we must bow our heads and have faith in one another."

Pelangi yang tersembunyi;

- Syurga Cinta.

Berbahagialah dengan apa yang kita ada. Tidak semua yang kita inginkan dapat kiti miliki tetapi itu tidak bermakna kebahagiaan tidak berpihak pada kita.

Seburuk-buruk panggilan ialah (panggilan) yang buruk sesudah iman (seperti hai fasiq, kafir dan lain-lain) dan barang siapa yang tidak bertaubat maka mereka itulah orang-orang yang zalim."

Secrets.

Most secrets are never told until you find out about it one way or another. Perhaps you overheard about it? Perhaps you are force to discover it? Or maybe you can no longer deny all the hints that are so obvious? Who knows.

You discover a secret. You rationalise.

Rationalise.
Rationalise.
Rationalise.

After rational, comes the acceptance part. To do all that, you need one thing - time.

Bear in mind that life is simple. Therefore, let's keep it simple. People are very prone to complex what is simple. Let them be.

So I told you with a smile 'It's all about you'
Then you whispered in my ear and you told me to,
Say 'If you make my life worthwhile, it's all about you'..."
- All About You by McFly.

I remember when I used to listen to the song All About You by McFly and how my brothers never stopped teasing me about it. They would sing the introduction of the song in the most irritating tone I ever heard. They would go, "It's all about you, It's all about you, baby..."

Hahaha. Those were the days.

"It's all about you..." (:

Ice-cream, anyone?

I can't find the right words though.

"A fight is going on inside me," said an old man to his son.
"It is a terrible fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you."
The son thought about it for a minute and then asked, "Which wolf will win?"
The old man replied simply, "The one you feed."

- Wendy Mass.

Which one are you feeding?

I believe I can fly;

"Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly."

- Neil Gaiman(Fables and Reflections).

I rationalised the line "And sometimes, when you fall, you fly" means that - there are times you will experience hardships and failures but sometimes, you will find the strength to go on, overcome those hardships and eventually, you will be able to stand tall again and achieve your aspirations.

Sehati Sejiwa;

Lagu yang menggamit memori waktu baru hendak meningkat remaja. Lucu juga bila terkenangkan masa yang lalu. Hahaha. Yang penting, rock tetap rock! :D

" Itulah satu petanda
Jiwa kita sama dan serupa
Nak tanya siapa lagi
Kalau bukan hati mu sendiri
Zaman kini serba pantas
Lambat sikit kita 'kan dipintas
Takkan nak sampai mimpi
Baru nak kau pasti"

It doesn't interest me;

2011-06-19T18:51:00.000+08:00

"It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain!I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it, or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul; if you can be faithlessand therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see beauty even when it's not pretty, every day,and if you can source your own life from its presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes!”
It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up, after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done to feed the children.
It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.
It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you, from the inside, when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments."
— Oriah Mountain Dreamer.

How about that for an inspiration? (:

"When you love someone but it goes to waste,
could it be worse?"
- Coldplay.

The love did not go to waste. I believe it is simply nurtured in a different way. Some people love you but do not show you in the most likely way. Sometimes the love goes unspoken but it is always there for you.

I count myself fortunate. (:

"You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity."
- Barbara De Angelis

The hard times may seem like it is here to stay but have faith and you will see that hard times are actually experiences which makes you a better person. Hard times can make you see things from different perspectives, it can make you develop empathy for others, it makes you stronger within and gives you courage to do things you otherwise wouldn't.

That smile made me cry;

2011-06-03T22:59:00.001+08:00

You know, some people just have a smile that can make you blink tears of joy. You ever met someone like that? Maybe everyone will meet at least someone like that in their lifetime. Who knows?

That aside, presently, I'm watching the movie 'Fallen' starring Denzel Washington. It's my third time watching it & I must say I have gained understanding of the metaphors in the movie. I was finally enlightened! Haha. I don't usually watch supernatural thrillers but there's just something impressive about this movie. Once you understand the movie, it makes you think and rationalise.

Be kind;

2011-06-03T20:01:00.000+08:00

Kindness trumps greed: it asks for sharing. Kindness trumps fear: it calls forth gratefulness and love. Kindness trumps even stupidity, for with sharing and love, one learns.

"Hello World" by Lady Antebellum with lyrics

2011-05-27T20:28:00.002+08:00

"Well hello world
How you been
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel as cold as steel
And broken like Im never gonna heal
And I see a light, a little grace, a little faith unfurls
Well hello world...

Note to self: Wounds will heal. :)

Life is really simple?

2011-05-23T21:39:00.008+08:00

"But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin."

- Mitch Albom

I don't know how he does it but Mitch Albom always manage to come up with something as good as the quote above in his stories. I adore his writings. It is so heartfelt and real.

A little update about what's going on:
Presently, I have two assignments and one CA to complete before I can feel the wonder of a term break! There are so many things to look forward to such as a treat to Arnold's, the much anticipated movie 'Nur Kasih', possibly a short trip to JB and more quality time for myself and loved ones and a whole lot more!

I am also currently making some new changes in my life, be it in the way I do things or look at things. I can feel the effect of the change gradually. I must say change is good. It helps keeps me driven in doing my tasks.

Other than that, life is pretty much good. During the times when life ain't so good, I tell myself,
"Life is really simple. Let's keep it that way. Let's not complicate what's simple." You may ask, does it really work? Depends on how much you believe in it. :)

Yes, that's right. Love and kindness are never wasted. You are making a difference no matter what little deed you do. If you ask me, a little difference certainly goes a long way! Be kind, be nice and always spread love everywhere you go!

Smile!

Hanson - Carry You There (EXCLUSIVE LIVE!)

2011-05-18T20:19:00.008+08:00

Awwwwwwwwwwwww. This is just so sweet. Another one of my wedding song perhaps? Hehe. Definitely have to be in the list of my wedding songs. It's a must! SMILE!

Lyrics:

Well I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Try
You don't have to be afraid to just rely
On someone to hold the weight part of the time
It's alright
It can get too much to handle by yourself
If you can't do it alone I know you will say
That I don't know what's at stake or what it takes

'Cause I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Turn around
And you just might see the good you've left behind
But you're all caught up with worlds still left to find
It's never enough

So slow down
And the road of what you're feeling might appear
All the pushing up the hill has brought you here
And your used up, to the line
You tell me you are fine

But I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting
Well I'll be waiting
To carry you there

So don't be too proud
I'm holding my hand out
You've been my friend on darker days
I'll still be there
Despite your despair
I don't really care what you say

I'll carry you there
I will carry you there [x10]

Beauty of a quote;

A beautiful quote about a mother's love:

"I shall never forget my mother, for it was she who planted and nurtured the first seeds of good within me. She opened my heart to the lasting impressions of nature; she awakened my understanding and extended my horizon and her percepts exerted an everlasting influence upon the course of my life." -Immanuel Kant.

Our Greatest Fear —Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,

talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other

people won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of

God that is within us.

It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine,

we unconsciously give other people

permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear,

Our presence automatically liberates others.

—Marianne Williamson

Thank god for this! :)

"Eventually I discovered for myself the utterly simple prescription for creativity: Be intensely yourself. Don’t try to be outstanding; don’t try to be a success; don’t try to do pictures for others to look at – just please yourself." — Ralph Steiner

I sang this song with FF this morning during Sports & Wellness. Hahaha. I cannot help but smile & laugh whenever I think about it! I had so much fun singing my heart out. Life's good!

Insyallah;

2011-04-18T19:26:00.000+08:00

Setiap pencapaian dan kejayaan diirinigi dengan tanggungjawab yang lebih berat. Insyaallah aku boleh melakukan yang terbaik.

Syukur ke hadirat Illahi;

2011-04-15T21:28:00.001+08:00

Sejenak aku terkenangkan soalan yang pada suatu masa dahulu seringkali ditujukan padaku. Aku pernah ditanya apa yang aku rasa setelah aku kehilangan seorang ibu?

Aku pernah ragu-ragu memikir jawapan pada soalan itu. Kini aku ada jawapan yang pasti.

Aku rasa bersyukur kerana aku pernah dianugerahkan seorang ibu yang berhati murni. Aku rasa bertuah kerana dianugerahkan bapa, keluarga, sahabat handai dan nikmat yang lain.

Ada orang di luar sana yang langsung tidak mempunyai ayah atau ibu. Ada yang kehilangan ibu dan bapa pada usia yang amat kecil. Kehilanganku amat kecil apabila dibandingkan dengan kedukaan orang lain.

Ya Allah terima kasih ya Allah, terima kasih kerana memberiku anugerah anugerah berupa hikmah, dugaan dan pahit manis kehidupan. Aku bersyukur Ya Allah. Alhamdulillaah Syukur.

Kesedaran;

2011-04-04T01:23:00.001+08:00

Aku teringat satu dialog dalam telemovie 'persinggahan' yang baru aku tontoni dua hari yang lalu. Dialognya berbunyi begini,

"Semua yang ada di dalam dunia ini hanya pinjaman oleh tuhan pada kita. Semuanya hanya satu persinggahan."

Aku terkedu seketika mengenangkan kebenaran di balik dialog itu. Aku terfikir bagaimana pada suatu ketika, duniaku terasa cukup indah apabila dianugerahkan kasih sayang dan kehadiran orang orang yang aku kasihi. Aku terfikir bagaimana pada suatu ketika pula, aku pernah merintih tatkala anugerah yang tuhan berikan padaku diambil kembali dengan tidak semena-mena. Ternyata aku tewas tatkala diduga.

Sesungguhnya percintaan, persahabatan, keluarga, pelajaran, kebahagiaan, kekecewaan dan segala di dunia hanyalah satu persinggahan. Kita berupaya memberikan yang terbaik dalam setiap hal berkaitan dengan hidup kita namun kita juga harus sedar dan redha dengan dugaan yang diberi Tuhan.

Tuhan tidak akan menduga kita lebih dari kemampuan kita. Jika Tuhan memberi dugaan pada kita, itu juga bererti bahawa Tuhan juga telah memberi kita semangat dan kecekalan untuk menghadapi dugaan itu. Terpulang pada kita untuk membuat pilihan, samada untuk bersyukur atau sebaliknya.

Aku akui kini, sememangnya, tiap yang ada di dunia ini hanya satu persinggahan. Lama kelamaan satu persatu akan diambil kembali. Yang akan tinggal hanyalah iman. Apakah mungkin cukup bekalan imanku untuk menemaniku kelak?

Truth told.

2011-04-04T00:42:00.001+08:00

It's easy to preach about telling the truth. We may have the courage to preach about telling the truth but do we really have the courage to tell the truth?

Think about it.

Relieved;

2011-03-26T19:59:00.000+08:00

Sometimes when you deeply believe that something is happening, it will become a reality eventually. When in fact, it could just be that you are simply too emotionally attached to your thoughts.

Hence, the next time you start to believe that something is happening even before it really happens, convince yourself that it is simply your thoughts, your mindset and nothing more. It is not denial. It is true sometimes we all believe our emotions more than logic. The key is to have a balance of both so think wisely and be happy!

Actually, it's a realisation which I just discovered. I just managed to turn an emotional thought into nothing, letting it vanish into thin air. It sure is a relief. :)

It makes me smile;

2011-03-25T16:30:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I search high and low for something which I never lost at the first place. It was always there.

Dugaan itu indah;

2011-03-21T00:40:00.000+08:00

Setiap dugaan itu sebenarnya indah walau sepahit manapun. Kadangkala kita terlalu asyik gembira dalam kesenangan sehingga kita merasakan tidak mungkin kita akan kehilangan kebahagiaan yang kita ada. Ternyata salah andaian itu. Dalam sekelip mata, kebahagiaan boleh hilang dari hidup kita atas seribu satu sebab. Seringkali kebahagiaan dikaitkan dengan apa yang kita miliki di dalam dunia ini; yang terdiri daripada keluarga, kekasih, sahabat, kemewahan, ilmu dan bemacam macam lagi. Sedarkah kita bahawa seringkali yang menyakitkan itu adalah apabila kita kehilangan sesuatu yang kita miliki di dunia ini?

Kita kehilangan cinta dan kita jadi tidak tentu arah. Kita kehilangan keluarga dan kita terasa hidup kita pincang. Kita kehilangan peluang untuk mengejar cita-cita dan kita rasa seperti dunia ini seakan tidak makna. Bagaimana pula jika kita kehilangan kasih dan sayang kita pada tuhan yang maha esa? Adakah kita pernah terkilan?

Adakah kita sedar bahawa kita mungkin kehilangan keluarga, kehilangan cinta, kehilangan sahabat, kehilangan kedudukan namun kita tidak akan pernah kehilangan agama dan tuhan?

Indah bukan bila kita fikirkan yang sebenarnya kita tidak mungkin hilang arah tujuan dalam hidup jika kita berpegang pada agama dan tuhan?

Cintalah dunia,
tiada salahnya
kerana sememangnya wujud kebaikan dan keindahan di dunia.

Cintalah juga agama dan tuhan
kerana dengan mencintai agama dan tuhan,
kita akan memperolehi berbagai anugerah dan pedoman yang tidak terperi.

Azharina - Rawan - Full Song - Lyrics

2011-03-20T01:31:00.001+08:00

This song reminds me of a dear friend.

"Ku bahagia pabila kau tiba, kau lenyapkan rawan."
"I was happy when you came."

Yes, I was happy, my dear one. Hope everything is fine with you out there. Keep striving for the best and I believe you will gain the happiness you deserve. You most certainly will.

With faith, peace is possible;

2011-03-19T00:40:00.005+08:00

I recently read a quote which goes like this,
"The journey is what brings us happiness, not the destination." I thought it was very well said.

Very often we go through the experiences in our life without really knowing what to expect through it all. We can only predict that such & such will happen but we cannot guarantee that it will happen. Sometimes things don't go as we planned but it turned out to be so much better than expected.

Have you ever felt it, things that did not go as you planned or expected but eventually it still turned out wonderfully? Better still, som e things which did not go as you planned turned out to be the turning point in your life. I think this shows that we can never ever guarantee the things that happens in our life.

However we do have the abilty to make the most of what we have, look at things in different angles & see that whatever happens, truly happens for the best. You may not see it now but trust me, with patience and an open heart, anything is possible. Anything. I believe the key is faith.

Syukur;

I am currently reading a book called 'Don't Be Sad' by Dr. 'A' id al-Qarni. It is a self help book from the perspective of Islam. It is such a wonderful book to read! I am so glad my brother bought it from Tanah Suci. Alhamdulillaah. :)

"You have made my life so wonderful." :) :) :)

Aku terasa amat kerdil di sisi yang maha esa. Masih banyak kelemahan yang aku perlu perbaiki. Kadang kala dugaan hidup membuatku melepaskan keluhan demi keluhan. Sesungguhnya tuhan maha mengetahui segala galanya.

Aku akan terus mengucapkan kesyukuran di atas nikmat nikmat yang diberkati dalam kehidupanku. Aku bertuah kerana dikurniakan nikmat dalam pelbagai rupa. Meskipun nikmat itu kecil, ia memberiku semangat untuk meneruskan perjalanan dalam kehidupan.

"Bisikkan ku untukmu, munajatku mohon restu. Semoga cintaku bukan palsu."

Hello! I don't mean to be in the National Day mood but I love this song, the lyrics especially! It's amazing how the lyrics are still embedded in my mind till this very day.

Luahan;

2011-01-25T18:11:00.005+08:00

Aku hanya insan biasa yang punya perasaan yang sama seperti yang lain. Adakalanya aku rasa gelisah, adakalanya aku rasa amat bahagia dan ada juga waktu apabila aku sebak mengenangkan suka duka kehidupan.

Dia ada.
Dia amat hampir denganku.
Dia indah.

Dia masih ada tapi
dia semakin jauh.
Dia tetap indah.

Wahai semua di luar sana, hidup penuh suka dan duka. Apabila tuhan mengurniakan kebahagiaan dari segi seorang sahabat ataupun keluarga ataupun mungkin dalam suatu pengalaman, jangan butakan mata dan hati daripada menerima kebahagiaan itu.

Percayalah,kebahagiaan itu kurniaan ikhlas dari Illahi. Jangan mengusir kebahagiaan pergi kerana kelak, kamu akan dihantui suatu soalan iaitu, "Mengapa aku tidak bersyukur?" Soalan itu akan berlegar di minda dan dalam masa yang sama, kenangan demi kenangan akan menggamit memori semalam.

Walau apa pun, kita sebagai manusia tidak lepas dari melakukan kesalahan yang kadang kadang amat tidak wajar. Penting untuk kita terapkan kekuatan dan kesabaran dalam menghadapi akibat dari perbuatan kita sendiri. Setiap kesilapan boleh diperbaiki. Setiap kegagalan boleh bertukar menjadi kebahagiaan di suatu hari kelak.

Aku menanti, menanti dengan penuh harapan. Jika benar semuanya bersebab, aku percaya di suatu hari kelak aku akan dipertemukan dengan hikmah dan hidayah. Jika tidak, aku redha.

"I want to tell you something. From bits and pieces of what you have told me about your family, your mother and your dad... And I know you have problems with the church too... But there is some kind of bigger thing that we can all appreciate and it sounds to me you don't mind calling it God. But when you forgive, you love. And when you love, God's light shines through you."

From the movie, Into the wild.

Yeah, sometimes, love is a mystery. It just sort of happen, you know? Before you know it, you are feeling emotions you never thought would exist in that moment.

Still here;

“Who says we want what we think we want? We want what we think we are supposed to want. Like what the books tell us to want and the movies. That's what I wanted. Happy. Happy, happy, happy - we didn't get that. That's the end of that. OK? It's not the end of us. It's the end of a dream, that's all. You wake up in the morning, the dream's over, so what? We're still here.”
