I swear

Love is fragile. And we're not always its best caretakers. We just muddle through and do the best we can. And hope this fragile thing survives against all odds.

Steve Miller: The Last Song

I made a quite controversial statement a few days back. I didnt mean it to be controversial as I believed I do not have any Attention Deficit Disorder to gain attention from others.


For me, it just a mere statement. Nothing more or less. But for some people, it is a serious matter. I could not blame them though. It's all my fault from the beginning.


The ring indeed marks me. It reflects me, it shows another side of me. But it stays as a mark. Nothing more or less. I aint going to get married any time soon. I have so much things ahead to pursue, so much obligations to fulfill.


and he'll wait. InshaAllah, he will.

the sky


Yesterday is History,
'Tis so far away
Yesterday is Poetry
'Tis Philosophy

Yesterday is mystery
Where it is Today
While we shrewdly speculate
Flutter both away

Yesterday is History: Emily Dickinson

Kun fayakun

When I woke up this morning, it occurs to me that I've been taken all the blessings (read: nikmah) from Allah for granted. The most ultimate blessing is to be able to breathe and live. I barely lived the one life given by Allah.

And He gave you much of what you seek; and if you enumerate the favours of Allah, you will never be able to count them; indeed man is very unjust, most ungrateful.

Ibrahim: 34

Allah has given me a complete senses, a family, loads of friends, education and many other chances. It is wrong for me to complain and being kufur with all the nikmah when Allah is not yet answering my prayers or granted my wishes.


and Allah could take everything back in a swift with no short note, with no sign at all. We could get into accident today and lost our body parts, our family and friends. Kun Fayakun, that's all it takes.


I am being grateful for today and hopefully for the rest of my life. As Allah has given me the best things that I could ever asked.


Thank you Allah.

Purpose

You once told me, our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch. Is that true for everybody, or is it just poetic bullshit?

Tyler Hawkins: Remember Me

As a human being, we have our own purpose in life. Either you're atheist, pagans, Christians, Buddhist, Jews or Muslims, we must believed that we have purpose in life. We did not just exist with no reason. We dont do things without reasons. Everything must have basis and reasons.


As a Muslim, Allah the Almighty stated in the Holy Quran:

I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me.

Az Zariyat: 56


Everything we did in life, every single action, word and movement must be niyat to Allah. Every single second of our life is ibadah and shall we not wasted any of it.


I am not a good muslim and far from being a mukmin. But I do and always believed that an artist should touch people heart through the arts, a teacher shall do it through knowledge and teaching, a singer must do it through the good songs and so on.


And writing is my platform. This shall be my way to touch your heart. Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch, aite?

Your absence has gone through me
Like thread through a needle.
Everything I do is stitched with its color.

Eid


Sometimes, happiness lies in a very simple thing. Sometimes, just having your family around is enough. Having people to laugh with, to have shoulders to cry on.


Happy Eid Mubarak. Have a blast celebration.

great life

I'd always scared going to a new place, making new friends or simply tasting for a new food (new for me nonetheless). New is something strange to me, putting me in a very uncomfortable place and left me lingered alone.


Funny it is, how much I hated these feelings, I end up pretty good after going through all of them. I like my new place, I made some good friends and I had a very wonderful experiences.


I just called my good old friends; having great conversation, laugh at the same old jokes and I realized how much we've all grown up these years. If I were to choose between my old friends and my new friends, I still choose the things that I have today. Old friends are great to keep but the new one is priceless.


Life is being pretty good so far. It's not easy but still great. Thank you Allah for everything. And peeps, lets strive for 9 more nites of Al-Qadr.

Happy Independence day Malaysia. Happy ramadhan!
