Kurang faham orang yang ambil mudah adanya isteri. Saya kira apa yang saya rindu beristeri dulu; doa dan teman setia yang paling baik. Banyak mudahkan urusan saya sebagai suami. Saya kalah dalam mencintainya, dia lebih mencintai saya. Namun tiada penyesalan, hanya kenangan 🙂
Kurniakanlah aku sepasang mata yang suka mencari hikmah, sekeping hati yang mudah bersangka baik dan sepasang tangan yang suka memberi. Cukuplah barangkali bekal untuk menghadapi dunia yang penuh dengan ragam dan tingkah laku manusiawi.
Eight years have swiftly passed — just one with you, and seven in your absence. Yet, every moment feels both fleeting and eternal. Coming down today to lay flowers by your resting place is probably the least I could do to celebrate us. Happy 8th anniversary, my dearest sayang ❤️
“You deserve a slow love. Uncomplicated. No rush. Sure. Stable. Consistent. You deserve that love. You deserve someone that’s sure of you, that you’re sure of.”
Standing here annually to feel the still air breezing through the wind of sorrow and misery. I already lost count of which year this has been since you went away. Probably signifies how far I am at the other side of grieving. Happy seventh anniversary sayang…
Nowadays I like my circle small, and prefer to be unnoticed wherever I go. This way, I could focus on each friend that I already have, and less overwhelmed with my surrounding.
Some will test you. Some will use you. Some love you. Some will teach you. But the ones who are truly important are the ones who bring out the best in you.
You have to stop the habit of explaining to others. You owe nobody explanation. Do your thing, care less about what others think. The only explanation matters is to yourself.
Something I learn recently: Try not to simply cut people off, instead draw boundaries. You still acknowledge their existence, but accept the fact that you aren’t close anymore — on completely two different pages.
“Please be patient with me. Sometimes when I’m quiet it’s because I need to figure myself out. It’s not because I don’t want to talk. Sometimes there are no words for my thoughts.”
Tak semua bertuah bila bercinta.
Ada yang diambil tuhan disaat berdua,
ada yang disibuk dengan orang ketiga,
ada yang tersepit pasangan berdusta,
ada yang hiba keluarga tak menerima.
Mahal harga bahagia, tak semua dapat merasa.
Peringatan untuk diri sendiri: Ikhlaslah dalam persahabatan. Dalam keikhlasan ada barakah. Bila ada barakah, kekal di dunia dan mungkin berjiran di syurga kelak.
“She struggled with her sadness, but tried to conceal it, to divide it into smaller and smaller parts and scatter these in places she thought no one would find them.”
“Deep in my heart I know I am a loner. I have tried to blend in with the world and be sociable, but the more people I meet the more disappointed I am. So, I’ve learned to enjoy myself, my family, and a few good friends.”
Being fluent in English doesn’t instantly certify intelligence. True smarts go beyond language proficiency. It’s sometimes reflected in the quality of ideas, the impact of actions, and the depth of character. There’s no language monopoly on brains!
Oh dear, when you are nice and kind; you don’t go around expect people to be nice and kind to you too. Life sadly doesn’t work out that way, but if you get back what you give then consider yourself lucky. Probably give, but never expect.
Kalau ada perasaan marah, saya akan senyap. Ada yang salah faham cakap saya merajuk dan tarik muka, bukan begitu sebenarnya. Elok saya diam dari berkata-kata. Bila berkata ketika marah, penyesalan hasilnya. Saya ambil masa untuk bertenang sedang saya berdiam diri.
So far nobody ever said to me healing is easy. It is not easy when it comes to healing. It comes with challenges, and these challenges eventually grow you. You will never be the same person.
Nobody ever really knows how much anyone else is hurting. You could be standing next to somebody who is completely broken and you wouldn’t even know it. That’s why you should always try to be kind.
My parents’ anniversary today, standing strong at 45 years of marriage. Mine only lasted a year but god knows what is best for them and for me. Alhamdullilah ala kulli haal 🍂
Jangan biasakan memendam rasa bila hati terluka. Akhirnya yang binasa kita juga. Lepaskan dengan cara yang kita selesa. Asalkan sukma kita terjaga. Selamat mencari ubat yang kena dengan jiwa dan raga.
Healing is lonely, something that you learn on your own, and only real to you. Nobody could do that for you. When you begin to heal, it should be the first priority in your life.
“The older I get, the more I realize the value of privacy, of cultivating your circle and only letting certain people in. You can be open, honest, and real while still understanding not everyone deserves a seat at the table of your life.”
If you knew how hard it was, and how long it took; to rebuild my little universe of peace and happiness then you would understand why I’m so picky about who I allow in my life.
Memujuk hati, hidup bersendiri. Mungkin bukan rezeki di dunia, tapi rezeki di akhirat kelak. Bukan dunia namanya, kalau tidak diuji. Sabar itu makannya, agama itu udaranya.
“Deep in my heart I know I am a loner. I have tried to blend in with the world and be sociable, but the more people I meet the more disappointed I am. So, I’ve learned to enjoy myself, my family, and a few good friends.”
Mana yang berkehendak ingin meninggalkan saya, pergilah. Saya jauh dari hendak memaksa untuk terus bersama. Asalnya sayang, saya lepaskan. Saya kalah pada kehendak orang lain. Demi bahagia mereka, saya bersedih seketika tak mengapa.
“No one is afraid of heights, they are afraid of the fall. No one is afraid of the dark, they are afraid of what's in it. No one is afraid of love, they are afraid of the broken heart.”
