Kadang aku tertanya, "Ahai, mana hujungnya untuk semua yang datang bertimpa-timpa?" Tapi aku lupa. :) Kesenangan itu datang bersama kesusahan, bukan selepasnya. Dah namanya hidup di dunia. Ko guano? :)

Assalamualaikum. I've heard a super tsugoi analogy between hardship and life today. I altered it a bit though but still . . .      There was once a young man who had encountered so many many many hardships and endured so many many many unfortunate events in his life that he almost give up his life. His last resort was meeting a very famous motivational speaker at his town, sort of. He was hoping to get some advice. Let's just picture that speaker as an old wise guy with white beard wearing tiny spectacles, well now I'm picturing Dumbledore -.-'  Ah well that'll do.       So anyway, the young man asked the old man, "Oh wise old man, I have encountered so many hardships in my life. How do I deal with this?" And the old man told him, "Go to my kitchen. Take a handful of coffee powder and a glass of water. And the young man did as he was told. "Now, put that coffee into that glass of water and drink it. How does it taste like?" As...

Kamsahamnida. Here :) "Mungkin Dia mahu mendidik, agar kekuatan itu kita cari dari-Nya yang terutama, bukan sokongan manusia semata." One's doubt actually taught us to have faith in ourselves which in the journey of establishing one, we look for the ultimate source of faith. May He guide us to the right path, and remind us of things we tend to forget in the wonders of everyday life.

"Abah kata jangan dipersoal ketentuan Tuhan.  Hikmahnya ada, mungkin makan masa untuk terima tapi jangan dihabiskan masa melontar persoalan." Here  :)      In an unfortunate event happened to my sister, my Abah told her this to put her at ease and as she retold the story to me, it came to me that one of my 2012 mistakes was that I spent so much time questioning that I waste the time that I could use to improve. I ask about a lot of things. The hows and the whys especially. Some are answered, most are disappointingly go unanswered and it does upsets me personally. The thing about abstract questions is that it requires abstract answers which sometimes could only come from experience and time. Without we realizing it, not only it consumes our time but it consumes our spiritual energy, hence, the emotional rides. On the bright side, it could be one of the means to uplift your spirit. It makes you think and reflect yourself.  Exploit all of the e...

For the extreme one unicorn of a ride I first had this year, I stumbled across this; Surah Hud 9. And if We give a man a taste of mercy from Us and then We withdraw it from him, indeed, he is despairing and ungrateful. -Dan jika Kami berikan rahmat kepada manusia, kemudian (rahmat itu) Kami cabut kembali, pastilah dia menjadi putus asa dan tidak berterima kasih. 10.  But if We give him a taste of favor after hardship has touched him, he will surely say, "Bad times have left me." Indeed, he is exultant and boastful. -Dan jika Kami berikan kebahagiaan kepadanya setelah ditimpa bencana yang menimpanya, niscaya dia akan berkata, "Telah hilang bencana itu dariku. "Sesungguhnya dia (merasa) sangat gembira dan bangga, 11.  Except for those who are patient and do righteous deeds; those will have forgiveness and great reward. -Kecuali orang-orang yang sabar, dan mengerjakan kebaikan, mereka memperoleh ampunan dan pahala yang besar. It seems that I always f...
