Fantasy Land




 “In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have never achieved his title. Do not lose your knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind and a step that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.”

-Ayn Rand-

Love the Earth



We were taught since we were in primary school how tree produce oxygen & consume carbon dioxide
Oxygen is a very important gas for all living things crawling on Earth
Yet, the greedy human chop off the trees, pollute the water, and contaminate the air.
That's not all, they even fight with each other for power and fulfill their greediness.
Please people, LOVE THE EARTH!!!

A T-Junction in LIFE

 


I don't quite like it when in a Straight Road of Life, I stumbled upon a T-Junction where I have to choose which turn to take
However, that's what LIFE is all about

The Road Less Taken




Its a long road ahead. You will never expect what is the outcome up ahead. At least for my case, I found a gas field in the middle of no where. Funny how life works.

I have decided to take the road less taken.

Life Changing Experience


Life has a way of getting us. In a blink of an eye, wars can be won and lives can be lost. We all live in a world where we do not know what is in store for us right behind the corner. Recent experience on a rough sea made one realized, what a fragile human being we all are. The idea of being at the mercy of the blazing waves is sickening. Helpless. 

This life changing experience made me realized what I want and what are my goals in life. It made me brave enough to admit, to give in, but alas, it is too late to do anything about it. The worse part is, being thousands of miles away, there is nothing much that I can do about it. Someone once told me that "hope are for losers". Well, I hope for the best be it in the past, the present or the future. Hopefully, we all see the sacrifices other people made for us.

For now, the phrases "I should have..." and "If only..." will always keep on repeating itself inside. The world would definitely be a better place if we practice and understand these 3 sentences; "Thank you", "I am sorry" and "I love you".

To you my dear, all we need is a little patience.

PS: Thank you to Fariz for letting me chip in. He is one of those who can really stand all the crap I put in and for being there when I am up or down.

La Tahzan - Jangan Bersedih


Jangan bersedih, kerana kesedihan hanya akan membuatkan air yang segar terasa pahit, dan sekuntum bunga mawar yang indah kelihatan layu, kebun yang menghijau kelihatan seperti gurun pasir yang gersang, dan kehidupan dunia terasa bagai dipenjara.

Jangan bersedih, kerana anda masih memiliki dua mata, dua telinga, dua bibir, dua tangan, dua kaki, lidah dan hati, kedamaian, keamanan dan kesihatan tubuh badan.

Jangan bersedih, kerana anda masih memiliki agama yang anda yakini kebenarannya, mempunyai rumah sebagai tempat tinggal, roti untuk dimakan, air untuk diminum, pakaian untuk dipakai dan keluarga untuk anda cintai... jadi mengapa harus bersedih..

Tetaplah kita sebagai hamba yang bersyukur...
dipetik dari buku La tahzan-Dr. Aidh Al-Qarni

Jatuh, Bangun!!!


It is mesmerizing to learn how a tree prepares itself for the challenging winter during autumn
Then to only learn that how amazingly they grow back into a tree with blossoming flowers during spring
We, human should prepare our self for the worse that may come
And don't get knocked down but to bounce back to stand as tall as you can
