Semuanya di tangan Allah,
Semuanya,
Walau dirasa ada yang kita punya,
Itu semua Allah yang punya,
Yang Maha Pemberi,
Yang mengambil semula,
Yang memberi sementara,
Yang mengurnia di masa-masa yang terbaik,

Kita hanya menyerahkan usaha dan doa, dan percaya semua yang terjadi adalah baik belaka.

Brilliant colours,
Yellowish white,
makes me smile,
The moon tonight.

Try hard, you can be the little tiny dot that makes a difference.

All black and one speck of white. That is you. Take some time to refresh the spirit and soul, Allah listens, Allah is close.

Chosen you. Chosen you. There must be reasons. There must be.

Uncertain ending but you can do something.

The night train

Another travel.

Pitched-dark night.
Neon lights.
Sleepy heads.
Shoes and sandals.
Queues and tickets.
Blue uniforms and nametags.
Railways and the sound from engines.
White beds, pillows and blankets.
Smiles and sun rise.
Hugs and laughters.
Helping hands and cats.

Breathtaking, serene.
Go forth and travel.
Meet new people and places.
Explore and be grateful -of so many gifts we get.

We'll be one happy soul.
And people can feel the vibe.

Alhamdulillah.

When you feel that everything in life rushes by,
Things go fast,
You notice yourself catching up with too many occasions,
Your feelings crumble,
Your confidence stumble,
And you start to rumble,

Maybe you forget,
To pause for a couple of minutes,
And look at the stars,
To feel loved,

Just that. Because Allah is with you. He made the stars specially for you, to tell you that He always be there for you. He is waiting, above.

Look up when you are down.

Someday,
What you are going through right now
Will end.
You won't be sad your whole life,
You won't be happy all the time,
All these feelings have its own time lapse,
It will come and go,
Start and end,
Be felt and gone...

It's the way you perceive and react to it, that's what counts beside Allah.

Life must go on, under the shade of His love, His ultimate acceptance, His pleasure.

Allahurobbuna.

Life is like a traveler, who comes across a shady tree, which offers a resting spot, before he continues his journey to his destination.

Don't focus too much on the tree,
for life itself is a journey!
Live once, and enjoy the benefits from your lifetime FOREVER.

Extract

"Introverts find social gathering draining.
Being in the crowd drains their energy. They charge their batteries while being alone. They enjoy their own company. They enjoy nurturing their habits, like gardening, reading, writing, keeping journals and even daydreaming. They learn best through observation. They listen more than talk. They are self-aware, keep emotions private, keep enthusiasm to self, interested in self-knowledge and self-understanding."

I see. Thank you Allah for making me see this.

Someone used to say, "you know yourself so much". I lost words to explain how I achieve that point but I know it is there with me for a long time.

I stayed aside in my very last gathering, a cohort dinner gala. I preferred sitting alone rather than clicking and snapping and posing and smiling for photography session. I was totally drained at that moment.

I used to hate crowds and that stays in me till now. Night market is the last place I would choose to go, unless I really have to find something there and it's very urgent.

But that does not mean I am not friendly and remain shut towards the world, no.
I hang around with my housemates then I will have my me-time in my room alone.

When I travel with a public transport like train or bus, I will choose a seat close to the window so that I can look outside, think and enjoy my time alone and relate myself and my life to it. It is always refreshing and fun to do that.

Thank you Allah. Now I know, and I am grateful for this chance. Should use it for the good of the ummah! InshaAllah.
