The irony of this song is in its second verse after the chorus - Apabila banyak berlebih-lebihan suka,itulah tanda hampir duka.
My mum always remind me not to be excessively happy cos after each happiness there is always sadness. It proved right. I had fun yesterday with the Gyler Inc peeps, we laughed and kecoh giler. And today, I received bad news...saddening news.
I guess indeed ... our Rasul said that whatever feeling we have, let it be in a moderate way.Do not be too happy or too sad .
Rasul saw. menerangkan kepada Ibnu Abbas ra; "Bahawa sekiranya sekalian umat atau makhluk berkumpulan dan bersatu untuk memberi manfaat kepadanya ataupun sebaliknya mereka bersatu dan berkumpul untuk mendatangkan mudarat kepadanya, namun semua itu tidak mungkin akan terjadi kecuali apa yang telah dituliskan untuknya di Luh Mahfudz sejak azali.Oleh sebab itu kita tidak seharusnya terlalu gembira atau berduka terhadap sesuatu yang dilakukan oleh orang lain terhadap diri kita. Kerana kita yakin bahawa segala-galanya adalah di dalam ketentuan Allah. Kalau di dalam ketentuannya tidak ada keputusan untuk memberikan sesuatu kepadanya, nescaya dia pasti tidak akan dapat memperolehinya walaupun seluruh makhluk bersatu berusaha untuk menolongnya. Demikian sebaliknya kalau ditentukan bahawa ia akan mendapatkannya, walaupun seribu halangan, pasti ia akan memperolehinya juga.
Allah berfirman: Dan jika Allah kenakan bahaya kepada engkau maka tidak ada yang dapat melepaskannya melainkan Dia. Dan jika dia mahukan kebaikan kepada engkau maka tidak ada yang dapat menolak kurnianya itu. (Yunus: 107)

I woke up today to a saddening news. A close neighbour,Nenek Asiah,who I've thought of as my own granma passed away. I wasn't sure what time she passed away, but mum went to pay her last respects at 6 am. I was dead tired yesterday thus I fell asleep early. If only I was up deejaying, I would have known the news earlier.
Arwah Nenek Asiah is a very close neighbour.She is my mum's friend whom my mum have known after getting married to my dad. Whenever any of us(me,hubby or brother) feels lazy to go to the market, mum would call her up and 'kirim' a few stuff. She is indeed what we call IRON LADY. She is a bony, skinny old woman but she can carrya basket full of fish,veggies from the wet market.
The irony of it all is yesterday, my mum asked me to goto the market today. I said, tengok dulu lah. But because I was tired, I said besok(meaning today) mak kirim nenek aje lah. It brings tears to my eyes now.Of how we depended so much on her.Of how now's she's gone.
My brother was the last person from our family to see her.He was going out and saw her sitting at the staircase of the opposite block,like how she always does if she needs a breather from all the walking. She ask my brother for a cigarette and ask him where he was going.The way she always does,treating us like one of her grandchildren.
Tears still flow down my cheeks now.I cried when I got the news,in the bus on the wayto Pusara Abadi.When I reached Pusara Abadi,it donned unto me how close it is between my two uncles graves to hers,to Ewin's dad,to June's dad.And on the way back to the bus, I saw a name that brought the tears flowing again-Shahrunizam Bin Rustam Pane.I stopped over at his grave and sedekahkan Al Fateha before boarding the bus home. I managed to stop over at my uncle Harun and Khalid's grave but only remembered about Ewin's and June's dads when I was already in the bus.I told myself that I would visit their graves the next time I'm here.Insyallah.
I had lunch with mum just now and both of us cried.She said each time she looks at the door,she's reminded of arwah Nenek Asiah.Of how the door would be pushed slowly by her from outside cos she's taking a breather sitting on the step outside my home.We're indebted to her.
May God bless her soul and she be placed amongst the people of faith.Amin Ya Rabbalamin.

I am sick.
Relaxed i am not.
And in the mood i am not.
Has there ever been a time when you feel like you wanna leave everything behind and go somewhere and start anew?
Or just don't bother about what happening and letting people just go with their own ways?
I know that people are obliged to their own way of thinking but what if you know you can never click with them?
Would you let yourself out the cowardly way;out the back door or be a person of courage and asked to be excused? Would you feigned boredom just to make them notice the very fact that you're bored with all this ? Or would you just continue with all of this as if you're thoroughly enjoying the ride though it's bumpy?
I don't know what i really want right now. So many things are going through my brains. We have had bookings for next year's hot date 080808. We're so busy with so many things to do,so many clients calls to entertain. Yet some times it's hard making other people understand what we're going through.
I told hubby that orang selalu tahu cakap aje. They have never been thru what we've been through thus they don't know. I learn to not be biase this few months and am learning acceptance. I believe the most peaceful of person in the world is someone who accepts others rather than just pointing out their mistakes. I am still learning that. I am learning to keep my mouth shut tho at most times I can't. That is something i am still learning to do .
Food wise, i have not been eating well these few days. The sore throat, the runny nose hinders me from enjoying my meals.
Hubby just bought a new pair of specs. I think he deserves it, after pampering me for the last few years he deserves something new. It's like one of those Oakley models and far cheaper. He looks nice in them. Iam glad he likes them.
There are projects to be due this week. Fidzah wedding vid is to be due next week,whereas Ain's is due tomorrow. The chinese temple vid is due this Sunday. And this weekend, we have a Chinese wedding on Saturday and a Malay wedding the day after. So yeah packed this week we are.Next week is a time for holiday. Insyallah, we're going somewhere to pamper ourselves. It's been a hectic 8 months.
I'm not sure what i'm supposed to be blogging abt. I feel super tired and just wanna sleep.
Cheerios !

Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself makes you fearless.

And the song i have on my blog now is directed to all.And to those yang terasa, ALHAMDULILAH...SEDAR JUGAK KO RUPERNYER!!
I will update my blog in a few days time when i'm more in the mood and far more relaxed than now.
Salam to all.
Have an enjoyable long weekend!
