Happy 9th!

I know that some of us blog about today's date. A nice date, eh. It won't happen again for sure. So whatever we do today must be something extra meaningful and beautiful. Right? Well, maybe.

This morning when I passed by a multi-purpose hall @ Dewan Suarah, I saw lots of cars parked in that area. I thought that there are some kinda event that I am not aware of (as always) until I realised a big notice board : Mass Marriage Registration.

Oh! It's because of the date.

Some choose to do carve something nice on printed papers.

Some choose to let the day passed by.

And some choose to update the status on FB, twittering every minute details on what will they do today.

And some, blog about it.

Yours truly is doing all the above.

Happy 9th, fellas! May you have a good one! :)

Only 16 para.

What happen when what we want is not within our reach?

Pray.

Will that be enough?

Perhaps a lil harder.

Pray hard.

What if it is still the same?

Couple the prayer with action.

Fast. Would that justify?

God's will.

And if I still not get what I want?

Perhaps it was never meant to be.

That's it?

Perhaps there are other good things coming your way.

Consistent pray.

Determined action.

This will pass. Soon.

Eh!

It seems that I have lost the touch of penning down splashes of my thoughts in this blog which was left abandoned by yours truly for ages! Could it be writer's block? Or could it simply be - lazy? Oh well..from the LiveFeedjit stats on the right panel of this blog, those flocking here from all over the world are looking none others than 'wishing upon shooting star' or about 'kureneko tango' and my poem about 'Neither me nor you'. Other entries couldn't make it on top of the search list though. Pffft.

But fellas...that is not what I wanna say with this entry.

My mind at this moment is thinking about things happened recently since my previous entry. Since July 8th, to be exact. Due to the cobweb, I couldn't recalled much except news of passing of another souls each day...regardless of whether he/she is connected to us or not. It's about the passing of the celebrities to the passing of politicians to the passing of friends relatives acquaintances fellow bloggers et cetera.

When I posted the entry of "The (Short) Story", to be honest, initially, I do not really think of the other world that all of us are heading to one day, but just to cut the story short, I end up telling about the ending. So when I read the entry over and over again, I was thinking hard on what are the things that I have collected so far along the way..as the ticket to the other world. But then again, I do not want to burden myself with such a thought, not because I did not want to think about the other side of the world, but I choose to let it flow and let it be for the time being.

But again fellas...that is not my main point with this entry.

What I really wanted to say now is that.....

I should be back in a while. But don't wait, coz I don't know when I'm coming back. But I hope you had an enjoyable trip down memory lane, in this blog, should I decide to leave it as it is..but as I am uncertain of what to do next, I shall leave you with this:-

Happy Ramadhan & Salam Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir & Batin.

The (short) story.

I was told of a story that goes like this...

"Once upon a time...

in a far far away kingdom...


there live a beauty princess...

who wait patiently by the window...

looking at the beautiful scenery of God's creation...

then suddenly...

...

...

...

...


the end."

Yup. That is a story that I was once told, some time ago. What happen, I asked. The one who told me said this : "Life is not a fairy tale."

I was puzzled. Before I had the chance to say "huh?", the story teller said : The End.

I then smiled. One thing I learn from that is:

Life is full of surprises that comes in different sizes and packages. What ever things in between will always remain mysteries, awaiting to be search and found by those who are willing to seek and participate the celebration of life. How we want to celebrate our life totally depends on ourselves. What remains the same is the fact that we will meet the Creator. That is 'the end'.

What's your story? Make it short (and sweet) if you can.

Adieu! ;)

Lie. Or. Truth.

Why do we like to tell lie(s)?

Is there any difference between lie and not telling the truth? Is there any form of ‘acceptance’ if we are not telling the truth when in fact we condemn those who tell lie(s)? Can we forgive those who choose not to tell the truth when in fact we hate those who lied to us? Will you forgive me if I lied to you, once? Will you accept my ‘not telling the truth’? Will you hate me then?


In whatsoever religion, faith, or belief in this world, none permit the act of telling lie. We’ve got to tell the truth and nothing but the truth to another, even if it will hurt that particular person. But what if we are not telling the truth? We don’t simply lie but we don’t tell the truth due to some circumstances that is unavoidable. Is it tantamount to lie? Is the act of not telling the truth will give you the feeling of relieve and/or comfort because you possibly think that the other party might not or at least spared from being hurt should you tell the truth? Or vice versa. But, how sure are you that the other party will be hurt with your statement of truth? Or is it simply because you are afraid of hurting your own feelings? Well...we may say that 'we are not lying, but deviate from the truth'? If so, what prevails then?

Preaching, it may sound, but what does it got to do with today’s entry? Treat it as one of my mumbling sessions.

Adieu!

I do move on...

It has been more than 2 months that this blog was not updated. I bet most of you know the reason, nothing but being busy. Oh, with life too. There are times when I am unable to scribble some thoughts in here despite ideas kept flowing like leaking pipe. I would not equate my ideas (and thoughts) like a flowing river because it would not do justice to myself.

So here I am. Updating this blog once again. Probably this blog would transform to what it should be in the first place. Time will tell. Enjoy the updates, fellas.

Adieu!
