Life (mengarut tak tentu pasal.. jangan layan)

there's nothing more in this world that meant more to me than looking at life. how we start our life, how we grow, how it ends... how we learn, how life can bring us joy, how life can bring us sadness, how hurtful can life be.. really interesting when you spend some time with children below six years old so you can learn how to dream and spend some time with people aged above 60 so you can learn about living.

i am currently reading a book "La Tahzan" which simply translated to English as Don't Be Sad. It is a nice book, it really put u on the perspective of appreciating everything in your life and never be sad on petty things. for example,
"God will never take away something without giving you something better in its place". 
this statement really make u realise to accept anything that have had happened to you.
even if my life should be taken for something i stood for is right! (amal makruf nahi mungkar)

it also says, doing good deeds or helping other people can make your own problem disappears or simply just make u say "hey, my life isn't so bad at all!"  imagine when u r feeling so depress about your problems, simply giving alms to people on the streets can be a quick stress reliever. (trust me it really helps) not that i'm saying that it makes u feel better than that person (riak la plak) but sharing something that u have with some one who doesn't will make u more humble. I don't know how to explain it, but it really does.

what ever u do, do it for the sake of Allah. never ever ever expect anything in return,
even if diberi madu, racun dibalas. I've seen some situation when people trying to help someone but get fired back for doing it (i even had experienced it myself) it ends up getting the fella getting all stressed up. this is where ur sincerity will help u through, if we are sincere in helping we should not get depress aite? doing our part in saying what is needed to be said is done, it is up to them to change or not.

it is just amazing when people never appreciate themselves as they deserves. "Life is for living" never live your life for someone that stresses u up, that make u feel inferior or would bring u to dance with the devil in the pale moon light (metaphorically speaking).. don't live life with the memories of the past, make new memories for your future. Life never end till it truly ends, and people also say death is just the beginning...

humans come in all shape and minds, some of them are just pretty damn selfish with themselves. it is really hard...hurm.. i should use the right word.. IMPOSSIBLE to please everyone. you cannot change yourself for each and every person in this world, just
be yourself and yet each and everyday make your life better than yesterday (orang jepon kate kaizen)
insyaAllah with the right path and knowledge, in the end this life will be a wonderful journey.
