THE SOUL REMEMBERS


Assalamulaikum,


It has been quite a long week for me, juggling between classes and my new self profound job as a transporter can sometimes be quite tiring. (Can't imagine once the tuition classes start but Alhamdulillah I can't wait!). One thing I like about my new job is I get to meet different customer(s) almost every time. I am obviously a people person so listening to people's story and their thoughts really enlighten my mood. People are human library- talk to them and you'll find amusing stories and lessons. 

The highlight of the week is actually what I listened in one of my classes. It really left me in awe. In that class, we learn about testing and assessment and we came to this topic; measurement. In our life we agree on measurement that has been set for a long time ago ; kilometer, meter, centimeter. We agree that 1 meter long is what's on the ruler. We agree that 1 kilometer distance is what's measured. We agree that gold is valuable. We agree that getting A in exam is equal to smart. 

Without realising, we really are obsessed with measurement.

"Because our souls remember that we too are being measured. We believe in rewards and punishments. We believe in the creation of heaven and hell. That's why we always strive for the best to get the best measurement; the jannah"


No matter how far we go, no matter what course we take, no matter what we do, there is always room for us to relate all those things back to the Creator, Allah Almighty. It's just whether you choose to see or you choose not to.

Social Media Detox

It was all started about a month ago, life was crazy at that time, one submission after another, school had a series of events before the academic year ended and I was freaking tired. To cut the story short, I randomly uninstalled my social media applications on my phone and dang I think I said it few months ago to go social media free by the end of this year. I haven't reached to that point yet, still scrolling down Twitter before I sleep but I am off Instagram and Facebook for quite some time already. There are times I feel like yknow reinstall those apps again but man my 24 years old brain cannot even remember the password. But LET ME TELL YOU I feel much calmer, less insecure and no unnecessary sakit kepala! Thanks to my forgetful mind, I stop checking on social media every 2 hours, scrolling down people's feed or timeline(whom I don't even know) and putting the pressure on myself (because I haven't achieved what people have). It's true lah afte...

MAK CIK SARIAH

My addmath teacher when I was in highschool told me "Be significant, wherever you go." My 16-year-old brain couldn't understand that of course, too young too dumb to realize. I thought what she meant was for me to be the best in whatever I do, be kind you know leave mark wherever I go. Just that, I couldn't see the impact of being significant. Well, that's not technically wrong, it's just I didn't understand the purpose of being significant at that time. Being me, I need reasons to do things. You need to tell me WHY before you ask me to DO.  Until one day I heard my favourite makcik kantin in my primary school passed away. She was one of the highlights during primary school - she put on a smile every time she saw me, she didn't have much but that didn't stop her from giving, best makcik kantin ever! That's when I realised - one of the importance of being significant in your life does not only for this world but for the hereafter, imagine...

Death end road.

It may look like a death end road, things beyond this junction are too blurry thus it makes those who want to try walking pass that stop feel eerie, but I will pick up piece by piece of my courage to step on the thorny path, because I need to. Things are going to be tough, it will be a living hell but I have had enough of this pain, I’m not going to live with this pain supressed to every inch of my rib. Not anymore. I’m going to outlive this pain. Hasbunallah Wani’mal Wakeel Ni’mal maula wannikman Nasir. “Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.”
