Hujan

Salam Alaik

Apa kata korang semua telengkan kepala ke kanan.

Hari ini aku rasa perlu untuk aku menulis dalam bahasa melayu.

Hujan turun lebat hari ini, aku sedang mahasabah diri. Banyak sangat yang berlaku pada aku dua tiga hari ini. Ntah kenapa ada aje yang tak betul. "Kau ada buat dosa ini" hati kecilku berkata-kata

Mataku terpahat kepada pancuran air hujan dan telingaku terpaku kepada bunyi desir-desir angin dan rintik-rintik air hujan. "Ohhhh ...... mungkinkah disebabkan itu?", aku pun mengambil telefon bimbit ku yang baru, aku taip satu persatu "Salam, i am sorry for raising my voice the other day, it was un called for. I am Sorry" dan aku click send.
Ya Allah, Engkau Maha Mengetahui.
Aku sedar satu perkara, walau bagaimana maju sekalipun setiap manusia punya jiwa dan perasaan dan rasa bersalah akan sering menghantui diri manusia. Itu yang aku sedar.
Wasallam

"Thank you Abang Long"



Salam Alaik

Today is bosses day. To all the Boss out there, happy bosses day, may you fulfill your task with honor and conviction. My division and a few others decided to celebrate bosses day. I thought it was a nice gesture. We got lots of balloons for the occasion. At the end of the day, i have asked permission to take some of the balloons back, it is the sole purpose for my cousins, i am sure they are going to love it, and true enough they did.

It bring out smiles in their faces, they give you a hug and say thank you, they smile at you, the radiant faces, they just made my hectic day today wonderful.

Isn't it strange, you might have a *^%&*(& day, but when you have a real honest session, sincere smile, laughter at that moment. That moment in time is just so perfect. There is nothing else you require but just that moment, You long for that moment. Kids are just so real, i guest that is why we love them. When they say thank you, there is no qualms about it you know it is true, when they smile at you there is no hidden agenda but the truth, when they hug you and kiss you in the cheek, it is because they just cannot express it in words but in their gesture. When they take your hand, and ask you to look them in their eyes and say "thank you abang long" you know that you are special to them. And that is a perfect moment in time.

To Iman and Anis, thank you for making my day today. Love both of you much. I pray that you grow up to be the the son and daughter that your mum and dad will be proud off, and to have the best job in the world, to be the Servant of Allah with blessing from your family.

end.

Words of Wisdom

Salam Alaik


Edi, thank you for sharing this with me. Dear friends.


Lets contemplate.


This is a master piece. If you have not read it take the time to read it now. If you have read it take time to read it again! It's so meaningful. Have a nice day.

GEORGE CARLIN (He recently died)

Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent...and so very appropriate.

A Message by George Carlin:


The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less.


We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness. We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.


We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor.


We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.


These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.


It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...


Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.


Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.


AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:


Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.


George Carlin

Senah Halwah

Salam Alaik


Today i celebrate my Sanal Halwah. hehehehehe i pun baru belajar the term. Thanks to brother Hata.

What does 9 October have in common with me, it is the independence day for the Nation of Uganda, it is also the birthday of John Lennon, and it is my Birthday. This year my birthday falls on 9 Shawal, my fiancee is 9 Ramadhan, Eh macam berjanji pulak :P

I took some time today to contemplate (apart from struggling to get my assignments and presentation done) i did a lot of contemplation. Today i turn 32 years old. 32 years ago at around 5am i came to be in this world, alot has happen during that time.

I can only summarize it into one word "Syukur". I am "grateful.

There is alot to be thankful, first my family, my mum & dad, the teachers and gurus in my life, the friends that i have, the experience i had, the laughter and the cries, everything summarize into "Alhamdulillah Syukur".

I might have done mistake along the way, i might have even hurt a few people along the way, made bad decision, got hurt in the process, laugh alot, cried and etc. But today i am happy that it happen. After hours of contemplation i can say with full conviction that i am Bless.

To all, i apologize for the things that i have done in the past that hurt you, i pray for your forgiveness, i pray that Allah (the Lord) will grant you salvation and care.

Kpd semua umat islam yang mengenali saya, mohon ampun atas segala khilaf saya, saya insan yang hina memohon keampunan semua. Semoga tuan sentiasa diberkati dan di Rahmati ilahi. Doa saya agar tuan dipanjangkan umur dalam iman, di murahkan dengan rezeki yang halal, di kurniakan pasangan yang menyejukan hati, zuriat yang soleh & solehan dan kejayaan di dunia dan akhirat.

Wasllam.

Terasa

Salam alaik

Today, i am on leave. so normallah i will go back to sleep selepas solat subuh. I woke up today at around 9am.

I terjaga because dapat SMS dari Zalini. In this sms he mentioned that he was reading the UK Telegraph and the column wrote that the UK economy is in ruins and population should look into hoarding GOLD.

MashaAllah, it is just like the prophet have said, there will come a time where nothing will be of value except a Dinar and Dirham.

I went back to review the books written by my beloved Maulana Imran Hossein. My prayers and doa for his well being . It would do good to many to read his books and capture his wisdom in this topic. http://www.imranhossein.org/

In the evening i was confronted by my fiance of an issue. The honest truth she was right in many ways. I will just leave that portion of the story as it is.

Now It is time for Magrib and then off to strategic management class. Till next time

Fairy Dust

Ramai og berpandangan kita perlu bercinta untuk mengenal pasangan,
tanpa perkenalan mustahil cinta bertandang,
tanpa percintaan mustahil keserasian dikesan.

Mereka sebenarnya terlepas pandang,
dalam islam ada taaruf dalam tempoh risik dan bertunang,
yang melibatkan mahram bukannya berdua-duaan.

Taaruf itulah yang mendedahkan keserasian,
cuma takrif taaruf dan serasi dalam fikiran manusia berlainan,
islam mengajar manusai taaruf yang ada sempadan,
terpelihara dan terjaga dari kemaksiatan,
bukan taaruf melalui cinta sakan,
bukan serasi dengan kehendak pasangan.

Cinta Ar-Rahman menjana kebahagian,
lantaran itulah,
batasannya tidak boleh dipermainkan.

Dinding berbunyi

Salam Alaik


I did not sleep well yesterday, not to sure why, in fact when i got up i was more tired that when i decided to go to bed.


My fiance's family family is coming to my place to beraya yesterday. My dad have invited them for lunch. We did many of our preparation last night, so there was less things to in the morning, however still lots to prepare.

Banyak giler kan, well that is mum for you, for the last few days she was out of commission, she did not cook, during the second day of raya when the family came,my sis and i did most of the cooking, so today it is like she Balas Dendam and start cooking all the dishes.


I hope our guest enjoyed themselves, i know that mum enjoyed herself cooking for them, my sis and me help at the kitchen department, Angah and abah did some cleaning


Lazat giler


Well we will come to that later, i attended my LaSallian get together at Raju today, it start at 10am, i was late by 10 minutes, it was fun seeing old friends, i did not keep in touch with any of them since leaving school. Thank to Facebook, it was great being able to see them.


There were hmmm, Justin Yee, Loke Kum Foo, Ow Tat Soon, Toh bu Kim, Ooi Sin Chee, Robbin Chew, Tan yaw, Patma, Sean, Brian Leow, Jeff, Sharizman, Tham Nam San and the other guy. Not to sure who was it. But i have to leave by early. The plan was for me to leave at 11am so that i could have some time helping mum before my fiance's family drop by, but i just lost track of time, i left the gathering around 11.45am. It was a great session at least for me. Thanks Justin for organizing this event.

Now back to the luncheon, it went well, alhamdulillah. everybody had fun, the main entertainer would be Badlishah, three (3) year old with her tricks and trade. She put smiles in everybody faces.

In the evening my aunt and her family came beraya, It was langkah kanan for them, they did not make it for our earlier get together with the family coz they were on their way back from Johor. Alhamdulillah there was food for them.

After magrib we decided to beraya, it is our family first session, since mum was not well most of the time.

It was a tiring day all together, but all in all a good day. I slept happy and slept well.

Sounding Board

Salam Alaik

It is good to have someone to hear your issues, that person who listen and with his or her eye, you know that they care. Sob Sob, my sister is growing up. No more my cute sis, she is now an adult who can listen a give me her point of view. You see what you want to see, today i realize that i have to see her as an adult, as an individual who have character and have her point of view.

Thing happen for a reason, if you take time to reflect and learn from your surroundings. I am happy i did not go to Batu Pahat. it was sad in the beginning, felt miserable, felt cheated, felt unfairly treated, felt that i was being used. I was really looking forward to the trip, pack my beg a few days in advance and such, but Alhamdulillah things turn out well. Malas nak cerita, Allah itu maha adil. Dia maha mengetahui dan Dia maha agung. I will leave it at that. Ingat korang semua, salah satu doa yang makbul adalah doa orang yang teraniya. Dan setiap perkataan itu adalah satu doa. So jangan buat org. Kalau kita tak kena, manalah tahu anak, isteri and waris kita yang terkena nanti. And believe me seeing your loved one's miserable is not a great experience.

The lord works in mysterious way. I thank god for some unanswered prayers (sound like a song :p)

Today i meet my fiance's family, kita org beraya hari ini. It is good to see her and the whole family. I had fun, and i am sure the rest of the family had fun too. Insyallah they will be returning the visit today, we went grocery shopping just now, everybody was there. As usual mum decided on the menu and we went hunting for items. My dad did some shopping too.

Love my dad much, i am not sure about the rest of you, but i did not get along with my dad in the beginning. But after i make an effort, i mean really make an effort to get to know him, i am really happy that he is my dad. We expect our mum and dad to be perfect, to be loving, just, caring, understanding and etc. But we forget that they are just human, prone to make mistakes. Sama macam kita jugak lah kan. If we can make mistakes, why do you expect more from your parents.

Cukuplah untuk kali ini. Hingga bertemu lagi di masa hadapan, insyallah

Cubaan Satu Dua Tiga (testing 1 2 3)

Salam Alaik

This is my, tak boleh ingat dah berapa kali cuba post some blog content. I hope this time it last.

Selamat hari raya aidil fitri, or happy eid mubarak to all muslims friends and family.

This raya, has been OK. My mum was not well that is a start. She was not well since last monday. Her temp was around 40 Celcius, she was coughing, and aching all over.

Risau giler. Anyway she is much better now, today also i am very much disspointed.

Don't need to tell the whole world about it, but safe to say sometimes i personally feel people only want to get close to you because they can get something from you. Arrggghhhhh

I just felt violated, felt cheated, felt stupid. Tapi entahlah in the same line you do not want to destroy friendship & relationship. It is easier to destroy rather to build. This is my first attempt. Let see how it goes
