Mufti Ismail Menk said, people are only jealous if you have something they don't have or they feel threatened by what you have, so don't lose it by stressing.

Well said.

As a human being, jealousy is a part of feeling that most of the time will visit us. Sometimes we as a human being also inviting it unintentionally. *ohno*

Do we realize it? Most of the time, nope. Actually jealousy is kind of doing or thinking something with a deep emotional paste. On that time, none can think rationally unless the thing that we are being jealous is something beneficial like good deeds.

Ask ownself, do we really need to be jealous? Let gone bygone. Don't ever trap in the emotion. We gonna be sick.


Alright, its time to let off some steam.

Tough week.
Facing others gloomy that brought mine also. Finally it showing a little bit. *much*

I am sorry.

Thinking of something negatively. What brings me to be this pessimist?

I am sorry.

Setup yourself. Face this world with your heart, with your stand.

Forget about myths and rumours. Even it comes inside yours.

If you don't believe in yourself, who else will believe in you?

Honolulu...

Surely its not here.

Honolulu is there. Yes, im sure.

Why I keep on it?

Because its Honolulu.

Memory will never fade but time does.

Keep on remembering something that keep it close.

Do remember or you'll be faded too;
 by time... by feeling... by your own.

Thats why Honolulu is choosen.

A tree without roots is fake.

Same goes to .....

Be blessed Honolulu,
with Love, Mercy,
Tranquility form The Almighty.

Rumi.

Who is in the house of my heart,
I cried in the middle of the night.

Love said,
"It is I, but what are all these images that fill your house?"

I said, they are the reflection of your beautiful face.

She asked,
"But what is this image full of pain?"

I said, it is me lost in the sorrows of life
and showed her my soul full of wounds.

She offered me one end of a thread and said:
"Take it so I can pull you back
but do not break the delicate string."

I reached towards her but she struck my hand.
I asked, why the harshness?

She said,
"To remind you that whoever comes to love’s holy space,
proud and full of himself will be sent away.
Look at love with the eyes of your heart.

Dare?

Life is about upside down. Rolling here and there. Definately, there is no static part unless for those who do nothing.

Do remember, in order to know or tell something, you need to let go something. Life is easy. Its all about give and take. But how to realize this?

Take a deep breath. Take a look. Do you really care about your surrounding? Do you really in at your atmosphere? Or you just make yourself able to be there and still standing?

Sometimes, a tiny deeds can turn you out as a new person. To be more clear, can bring new hope, good feelings not only to you but your surrounding as well. Dont you feel happy when people enjoy to be with you and accept you as who you are?


The only thing, for now is to let go your ego. Unconditional emotion.

Be blessed, lovely soul.

 

You.

 

For who you are. 

I know you can do it. 

 He knows you can make it.

If you do not believe in yourself, who else?

Even he believe in you deeply, you need to figure it out.

Please take it.

Make it.

Keep it up!

and never make things harder...

We call it, Plan.

I found this while scrolling on newsfeed. Ahah... mine is not around the corner. Actually this is a good thing to be discussed. Well, we need to plan early. ^_^

******

resepsi nanti saya nak buat simple2 aje. saya nak masak sama-sama dengan siapa yang sudi nak tolong masak untuk kenduri resepsi saya nanti, biar kita sama-sama berpulas hempas, baru-lah enjoyable. kadang di hari resepsi tak sempat pun jumpa/cakap lama2, so kalau tak dapat datang resepsi pun, datang tolong beli barang2 nak masak pun ok, teman beli door gifts etc, takpun datang masak hari sebelum, stay up sama2 malam tu, kita sembang panjang2, kenalkan kawan2 dekat mama bapak dan isteri nanti.

dan erm, kenduri nanti nak buat time breakfast. tak panas sangat. tak payah nak terkejar2 nak solat zohor bila dah dress up (or suit up) bagai kan. nanti boleh guest pi kenduri lain pulak lepas datang resepsi saya dan isteri(nanti). lauk? nak masak Nasik Lemak Camam (NLC), and utk yg lambat sikit (yg datang dekat2 tengahari) nak buat nasik pilau kambing (NPK). yang penting capek kena ada nak tolong masak skali.

and nanti tak nak ada makan beradab, sangat tak beradab tetamu datang kita dok rumah macam raja, kadang yg datang tak sempat tengok pun siapa yang kawin, patutnya jemput tetamu datang, kita tuan rumah kena layan tetamu. and instead of main lagu je sepanjang masa, nak selit2 bait2 puisi, ucapan dari mak ayah, abang kakak sepupu sepapat, biar diorang bacakan live apa yg diorang tulis, kalau ada lah orang nak tuliskan kan. perasan lebih. heuhuehue.

so, target:
majlis biar simple, buat time pagi 8am-Noon, lauk NLC & NPK, masak sendiri gotong royong dgn family, kawan2 dan jiran, pengantin akan layan tetamu lebih.

sekarang:
mantapkan persediaan, cari duit, cari sampai jumpa jodoh

oh lupa. tak tahu jadi ke tak ni, sebab tak bincang dgn bapak mama and isteri lagi. eh bakal isteri, eh, calon bakal isteri pun tak ada lagi. eh? eh?

disclaimer: doakan. serius takde apa2 lagi soon. saje nak share my dream wedding reception je, and tak bererti reception2 korang dan orang lain tak bagus.

Something that always be forgotten...

#9 – Emotional decisions are rarely good decisions.

Decisions driven by heavy emotion are typically misguided reactions rather than educated judgments.  These reactions are the byproduct of minimal amounts of conscious thought and primarily based on momentary ‘feelings’ instead of mindful awareness.
The best advice here is simple:  Don’t let your emotions trump your intelligence.  Slow down and think things through before you make any life-changing decisions.

Some things you need to know...

I know you’re reading this.  

And I want you to know I’m writing this for you.  Others will be confused.  They will think I’m writing this for them.  But I’m not.

This one’s for you.

I want you to know that life is not easy.  Every day is an unpredictable challenge.  Some days it can be difficult to simply get out of bed in the morning.  To face reality and put on that smile.  But I want you to know, your smile has kept me going on more days than I can count.  Never forget that, even through the toughest times, you are incredible.  You really are.

So smile more often.  You have so many reasons to.  Time and again, my reason is you.

You won’t always be perfect.  Neither will I.  Because nobody is perfect, and nobody deserves to be perfect.  Nobody has it easy, everybody has issues.  You will never know exactly what I’m going through.  And I will never know exactly what you’re going through.  We are all fighting our own unique war.

But we are fighting through it simultaneously, together.

Whenever somebody discredits you, and tells you that you can’t do something, keep in mind that they are speaking from within the boundaries of their own limitations.  Ignore them.  Don’t give in.  In this crazy world that’s trying to make you like everyone else, find the courage to keep being your awesome self.  And when they laugh at you for being different, laugh back at them for being the same.

Remember, our courage doesn’t always roar aloud.  Sometimes it’s the quiet voice at the end of the day whispering, “I will try again tomorrow.”  So stand strong.  Things turn out best for people who make the best out of the way things turn out.

And I am committed to making the best of it along with you.

Stuck

Oh my ....! I get stuck on this. It turns my neuron energetic.

True Friends

Difaktab oleh Isaac Ismael

Assalamulaikum warohmatullah.

   All of us have friends. But not all of us have true friends. True friends are rare. They are special breed. They are hard to come by. True friends are exclusive species created by God. True friends aren't those things money can buy. They are so rare so the number of them usually don't exceed the number of fingers on a single hand. In every 1000 friends we have, there might be only one or two. Or none at all.

   Friends are presents. But true friends are God's gifts. They are rewarded to us. True friends are always there for you when you need them. They are even with you at times of when you don't need them. Because they know they are needed. Sometimes, true friends already knew what you didn't even tell them. Because they knew you so well. However, distance may kept them apart. But true friendship never separate them apart. True friends are friends who always listen and understand. They never punish, they never judge. True friends lend their hands before you even ask for help. True friends put themselves second before you.

(credits goes to favim.com)

  You could have few true friends. Those friends could also claim you are one of them. True friends stay and never leave when their friends are in trouble. The most important principle is, true friends never offer a hand while holding a knife on the other hand. Betrayers aren't even called as friends.

  Now ask yourself ? Are you a true friend ?

*dush*

Sunday. Definately we call it as weekend. But not for Kelantan, Terengganu also Kedah.

Blogwalking, an interesting activity or so-called as 'warm-up'. :D

I came across this blog, anak pak man, and I found this (simply click on the title and you will be sent there!). Phew... This is what I want to say all this while...

Let me share his post. Check it out!

Fiction Character 1.1

"I can't change, even if I tried, even if I wanted to," Same Love by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis feat. Mary Lambert.


He wanders. He wonders. About many a thing at a time. So many things, in fact, that he loses track and in effect gets distracted rather easily. Too easily. He could be in the middle of contemplating Khalil Gibran, for all he could, and a passing motorbike would make all those thoughts join the carbon monoxide to come up in smoke.

His focus is weak. He can’t pay attention to anything for more than ten minutes. He opens the Pages document on his computer to write something up and is scrolling through his Facebook home in less than two minutes. It not that he wants to lose focus. He just does.

At least that’s what he says to himself. Comforting is the thought of not having control of yourself. You are no longer responsible for your actions when you aren’t in control of yourself, and that’s the way he likes it. Not taking responsibility for himself. For his own development. For the feelings of the people around him. For his relationship with God. 

It’s not under his control. If it was, he would be the best human being ever. He would be able to do so many things. He would read a lot more. He would learn how to play every sport that he can. He would pray on time all the time. He would be helpful at every opportunity he can. He would work on his assignments as soon as he receives them and wouldn’t stop until they’re finished. He would proofread his work, thrice, making improvements every time. He would get high distinctions. He would get a first-class degree.

But it’s not under his control. He’s tired all the time, so he sleeps way too much and works too little. He’s too slow a reader, so he puts his books aside. He’s way too busy, so he postpones any actual work until the very last minute. He’s not fit enough, so he doesn’t go down to the field to play any kind of sport. He was always a one-sport-guy anyway. He oversleeps, so he misses prayers. He doesn’t like proofreading his own work, so his first drafts are his final drafts. His EQ is low, so he hurts the people who love him.

Ah, not being in control is the best thing that could ever happen to a person. After all, how can God judge a person for how He has made His creation? These flaws aren’t mine, he says to himself. They were given to me. I did not choose to be this way. If I was born hardworking, then things would be different. But I wasn’t. So I’m not. 

And that’s perfectly fine.

thou

I can’t pretend to be a lion able to conquer the enemy,
To master myself would be enough.
I am only the dust on my Lover’s path
and from dust I will rise and turn into a flower. 

[Rumi] 

Think.

Every after rainfall must come a rainbow.

But what if it rains at night?

The rainbow may not be seen in the sky, but it is always in your heart

Dear You,

Thank you for being here. Thank you for being with me all this while. Nothing more that I can say except, "O' Allah, grant him with Your Love, Kindness, Merciful. Give him strength to face any scenes of life. He got nothing except You, My Lord, The Almighty. Anta Maqsudi. La haw la wa la quwwata illa billah..."

15 Gifts You Can Give Yourself for Free

The best things in life aren’t things.  So next time you want to give yourself a gift, save your money, and consider gifting yourself one of the following instead:

1. The freedom to be unapologetically YOU. – Wearing a mask wears you out.  Faking it is fatiguing.  The most arduous activity is pretending to be what you know you aren’t.  Trying to fit some idealistic mold of perfection is a fool’s game.  It’s much wiser to just be yourself – faults and all.  Take off your mask and start being unapologetic about who you really are.  Remember, imperfection is beauty; madness is genius.  It is better to be ridiculously you, than ridiculously boring by trying to be the same as everyone else.  Read The Mastery of Love.
   
2. An uninhibited imagination. – If we’ve learned anything as a society over the past few decades, it’s that life is changing faster and faster with every passing day.  The world tomorrow looks nothing like the world today.  And the people with big imaginations are the ones not just living it, they are creating it.
   
3. An open mind. – Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don’t; everyone can teach you something new.  The purpose of keeping an open mind isn’t just to change your mind, it’s to expand your mind to understand the true potential in each moment of your life – to discover a self who has the ability to see more possibilities and expanded points of view (even the ones opposing yours) and then to choose creatively, intuitively, and sacredly going forward.
   
4. The commitment to fail forward. – Failing is as certain as sunsets and detours.  So why exert energy avoiding the unavoidable?  Embrace it.  Shift your energy from protecting yourself from failure to squeezing the life out of life.  Get real comfortable with that uneasy feeling of going against the grain and trying something new.  Doing so will always take you to places you never thought you could go.
   
5. Using encouraging words. – Words are powerful.  They can create or they can destroy.  The simple words you choose, especially when you speak to yourself or about yourself, can offer encouragement and positive thoughts going forward, or they can send you further into despair.  So choose your words wisely.
   
6. A ‘glass’ filled with the right things. – It’s not just whether your glass is half-empty or half-full that matters.  You also have to be mindful of what you’re filling your glass with.  Be sure to fill it with those things that satisfy your soul: good friends and family to love, passions to pursue, dreams to fulfill, and charity for others.  Because the only situation more tragic than seeing your glass as half-empty, is filling your glass until it is overflowing, and then realizing that there’s nothing in it to satisfy your thirst for a meaningful life.
   
7. Enjoying what you have. – The thing you need to do is enjoy the ride while you’re on it.  Think positive, be positive, and positive things will happen.  Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not.  Enjoy your blessings right now.  Remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.  Celebrate this.  Work on being so appreciative and happy that when others look at you, they become a little happier too.
   
8. Lifelong learning. – You are simply the product of what you know, so develop a passion for acquiring knowledge.  A passion for learning is different from just studying to earn a grade or please teachers.  It begins in the heart and home.  Read for pleasure, ask questions, analyze, and exploit your curiosities.  In other words, learn to actually love the act of learning.  Read The Last Lecture.
   
9. Hope. – Remember, it’s always darkest just before the dawn.  Never underestimate the strength of your will to live after a loss, to love after heartache, or to rise after a fall.  For although your troubles may be too dense and dark right now for you to see the light, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a strong spirit within them, or a beautiful sunrise just beyond the horizon.
   
10. Spirituality. – Faith elevates your view of the universe, your world, and your life.  You would be wise to instill into your mind that you are more than just flesh and blood taking up space.  You are also made of heart, soul, and will.  And decisions in your life should be based on more than just what everyone else with flesh and blood is doing on the outside.
    
11. Stability and love at home. – A stable home becomes the foundation on which you build the rest of your success.  Subconsciously we all need to know we have a family core who we can trust, and who is going to be there for us through thick and thin.  Faithfulness to your partner is a big part of this.  Faithfulness in any intimate relationship includes more than just your body; it also includes your eyes, mind, heart, and soul.  Guard your sexuality daily and devote it entirely to the one you love.
    
12. A positive temper. – Anger can be useful in calling your attention to issues that require your response; but anger itself is not an effective response.  Take a slow, deep breath, and remind yourself of how much more effective you can be by maintaining a positive, results-oriented approach to the issue at hand.  Don’t let the silly, thoughtless, destructive actions of others trap you in an unproductive state of anger.  Take note of your anger, let it go, redirect your focus on being your best self, and you’ll surely emerge with a smile.  Read Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff.
    
13. A sense of humor. – He or she who laughs, lasts.  A sense of humor is a major defense against minor troubles – something life is filled with.  So laugh as often as you can with those around you, for your sake and theirs.
    
14. Doing the best you are capable of. – Don’t complain about something you can actually do something about.  Take action.  Do the best that you’re capable of.  Any less is cheating yourself.  Those who get the most from life are those who give the most.  Find something you’re passionate about, and keep tremendously interested in it and focused on it.
    
15. Being the change you want to see. – Happiness, freedom, and peace of mind are always attained by giving them without expectation.  The only way to raise yourself up is to raise others up – to raise your world up – to raise all of life just a little higher.  Joy comes to you when you give it.  Happiness becomes yours when you live it.  Everything you need you are already capable of being.  So smile from the heart and fulfill the destiny that is yours in this priceless moment.

The Mayonnaise Jar Lesson

 

 

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the two beers.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full.

They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full… The students responded with a unanimous ‘yes.’
 

The professor then produced two beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

‘Now,’ said the professor as the laughter subsided, ‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things—your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions—and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car. The sand is everything else—the small stuff.’

‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ he continued, ‘there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.’

‘If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.’

‘Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.’

‘Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.’

‘Take care of the golf balls first—the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.’

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled and said, ‘I’m glad you asked. The beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of beers with a friend.’
