Life is the greatest gift

I’m back again.Still in a good shape but tireddddddddddddd to death.What happened was, my mom still ok when I’m home after driving 4 hours and half from KL.She’s a bit shock but didn’t scold or nag at me.Hohoho..what a relief.Anyway,still my pa & ma would like to accompany me on my way back to KL.Mom would like to pay a visit to my sista,sis maziah.They would like to see her brand new house.Pa said, he & ma must come over here to see their children,to spend the time with their children,to get close to them.I noticed that, the more older he is the more caring he is towards his kids.My pa used to be the very ‘garang’ dad before.Now, it is the different thing.Hehe..


My pa already show a sign of ageing, he can’t recall exactly the location of streets.I know I may lose him in any time and I have to be ready.He walks very slow and always complaint he suffer a pain in his chest.I know if I didn’t follow my parents and my sister to perform umrah on last June, I may not have the chance again.I mean the last chance to perform umrah together with my parents.At least I’d done something to them.They take a good care of me from I’m a small baby girl till I able to take care my ownself.Now, it’s my time to repay.It’s now or never.Not much time left.

One thing about my dad that made me so touched is dad will always severe all of the gifts I gave to him. Even if the things already is too old to be used he will just keep it.He never dump it.Daddy still wear the watch I gave him till now.I learnt the lesson from him.If you really love a person you’ll keep safe the gift from him/her.It has sentimental value, no amount of money can buy it.It become my habit, I always cherish the gift I’ve had.Furthermore, I originally came from not so well off family.Therefore,since I were small,I always appreciate everything that I had.Life is the greatest gift from Allah,at least be thankful that you still alive,can breath some fresh air.

Things a woman must do before she turns 30

My sister phoned me asking me whether I’m going back or not for this coming Eidul Adha.My answer is very simple,if you see me at home,meaning I’m back at home,however, if you cannot find me anywhere at home,meaning I’m not there.Poor sis, for having such a wink wink younger sister like me.Ehehehe..

The truth is I’m planning to make a surprise. Yes, I’ll be back at my hometown by car, my precious silver cutie, I mean. I’ll do the driving alone for the first time.Hopefully, mom will not be so stressful after learnt about this .Mom, I need to do something I didn’t do before I turn 30,including this one. Travel back home all by yourself. I must try long distant driving.

So what are the other things in the list?

• Change your car’s tire all by yourself
• Travel somewhere by yourself-a foreign country, another city or just a weekend road trip
• Dump your toxic friend
• Break someone’s heart, get your heart broken too
• Quit your sloppy job
• Make a killer joke (this one I must try hard) ahahaha
• Dine in a fine restaurant unaccompanied
• Volunteer for a charity you really care about
• Forgive someone who wronged you; apologized to someone you’ve hurt
• Drive a wickedly cool car, even if you have to rent it
• Find out which friends you can and can’t trust,and learn not to take it personally
• Learn the CPR and Heimlich manoeuvre
• Buy a complete set of screwdrivers and a cordless drill
• Do something kind but don’t tell anyone

These are to do things list women should experience before their turn 30, I got it in a magazine. I found this quite interesting. Sometimes, you should do something you never do, something different, in order to taste the sweet and bitter of life. You better experience this in order to be more matured, grown up and stronger.

Can I Borrow $25?

This is an old story that you may have read it before somehow from somewhere.

Read it again cos when i did.... my tears nearly roll down again....and of cos it reminded me that i should spend my time more wisely.. :)

Read on....




A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'

DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.

SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the man said angrily.

SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'

SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.

SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $25?'

The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard everyday for such childish frivolities.'

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.

The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down , and started to think:

Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $25.00 and he really didn't ask for money very often The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.

'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.

'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the man. 'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $25 you asked for.'

The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.

The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.

The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.

'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the father grumbled.

'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.

'Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.'

The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness. [Agnes ] after this line (in blue) my heart feel sour and sad and touchL

It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $50 worth of your time with someone you love or someone who really loves you so much, cos you mean everything to her/him.

If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of hours. But the family & friends & Loves one we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.

Please don't break this even if you only pass it to one person. Thanks

luna: i also found this one is very touching.how sweet the little boy.i got this from an email.so pls pass around.money is useless without our loved ones in life.

My Favourite Song



AKU DAN DIRIMU

Tiba saat nya kita saling bicara
Tentang perasaan yang kian menyiksa
Tentang rindu yg menggebu
Tentang cinta yang tak terungkap

Sudah terlalu lama kita berdua
Tenggelam dalam gelisah yang tak teredam
Memenuhi mimpi mimpi malam kita

Reff:

Duhai cintaku sayangku lepaskanlah
Perasaanmu rindumu sluruh cintamu
Dan kini hanya ada aku dan dirimu

Sesaat di keabadian

Jika sang waktu bisa kita hentikan
Dan sgala mimpi mimpi jadi kenyataan
Meleburkan semua batas
Antara kau dan aku…. kita


Anyway, it is not to late to wish,congratulations for the singer of this song,Bunga for his newly wed to Ashraf.

Taking Care of Yourself

To answer the question of how well you’re loving yourself, ask yourself the following question: Do you spend a lot of time focusing on other people’s problems? It’s much easier to focus on the problem of others than to deal with our own flaws.Maybe we look at others than to deal with our own flaws. Maybe we looks at other people’s problem because we are truly concerned with their well-being. Or we do it because we feel responsible for other people-more responsible, even than we feel for ourselves.If you develop a good, caring, honest relationship with yourself, you will be able to help others when they need it. When you take a good care of yourself and your emotional life, you allow others to see you as a model of self-love. You automatically pass it around If you want to have a positive influence on your friends or family, do it by setting an example through your own behaviour.

Collin Mortensen of Chicken Soup For The Soul.

Luna: Sometimes I do think I focus more to other’s people problem more than my own well being. True to say, I quite a caring person. I can’t help being so concern about others especially somebody who are very close to me. Nowadays, I have the feeling that I also need to take care my own self. If I don’t appreciate myself who else will appreciate me?

Yep, it is easy to look into other people problem and their flaws rather than our own imperfection.To look into yourself, you must see it through the mirror.The nearest mirror is your friend, try to see yourself from their eyes.You will get some input.


Yes, I do feel responsible towards my family,my friends and people around me.But as the time passed, I realized that as long as that person able to take care himself / herself ,no need for me to meddle into their own affairs.I have to look at myself now, whether I take a good care of myself and my emotional life.Only after I assured that I’m taking care of myself properly then I can give my best to others. I’m trying to be realistic.You see ya,if you yourself looks so vulnerable and disorganize how you gonna help others?That’s the idea.Yes, you can help others but not to the extent you deprive your own need. What I wanna do is I want to be fair to myself.

Furthermore, my friends always said to me: “We always think about others, but do they really care about us?” They got the point.Only appreciate people who appreciate us, forget about those who don’t.Life is too short and friends are too few.

Trying to be my own besfriend

Being a friend to yourself is as important as anything you will ever do. Things will instantly begin to improve for you. And the better friend you are to yourself, the better friend you will be to others. All in all, the end result of being good to yourself is more inner peace, self esteem and overall happiness.

Think of yourself as a friend. No one deserves to be treated with love and respect more than you do. In order to understand the concept of being a friend to yourself, think about how you act with your very best friend and then make a conscious effort to be that way with yourself. Be supportive, understanding, lighthearted and most important, when you make a mistake, be forgiving.

Remember that self esteem and being your own best friend are not the same as arrogance or selfishness. You know when you are being selfish, and you know when you are just taking care of yourself. Taking care of yourself feels good, whereas being selfish does not. The same is true with confidence. A confident person has no need to put others down. In fact, it is the confidence, self assured person who is supportive of others and wants them to succeed.

Kimberly Kirbeger from the book of Chicken Soup For The Soul.

Luna: My dear, will try to be your best friend. Will treat you with love and respect.
As kind and gentle I treat my bestfriends you also deserve the same treat.Will do what I have to do to make you happy and be very appreciative to you.You also deserve to be happy, I should take a good care of you.

What does besfriend do for his/her friend in need

All of sudden I feel so sad.So deep it enter my mind, body and soul.My body is also in pain.It is very unfortunate,2 things at the same time.

Quoted from today the stars newspaper, Mr. Razak Baginda answered when he have been asked what lesson he learnt from the ordeal.
“When you are down, you are basically alone.I still have family but when you are down, you are basically alone.”

It is true what he said. I have my family & my friends around but only me understand what I’ve been through. Look at my character, most people describe me as cheerful & a warm person. To really understand me, you don’t just look at the outside but look deep into my eyes .The eyes never lie. The eyes will tell what is inside.

Sometimes I blame myself. Do I love myself enough? Do I taking care myself enough? I realized that I should treat myself as my own best friend. And what best friend do for his/her very dear friend? Before you wanna love others you have to learn to love yourself first. That is the lesson.

The Sexiest Hunk

People names Jackman 'Sexiest Man Alive'
Published: Nov. 19, 2008 at 11:07 AM




Australian actor Hugh Jackman attends the fourth annual "A Fine Romance", a tribute to Hollywood and Broadway to benefit the Motion Picture and Television Fund in Culver City, California on November 8, 2008. (UPI Photo/Jim Ruymen)

NEW YORK, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Australian actor Hugh Jackman has been named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive for 2008.
The 40-year-old film star has played superhero Wolverine in the "X-Men" trilogy and won a Tony Award for his work in the stage musical "The Boy From Oz." He will next be seen opposite Nicole Kidman in the big-screen epic "Australia."
Kidman said she thinks Jackman, a married father of two, is a good choice for People's highest honor.
"Women's jaws drop when Hugh walks into a room," she told the magazine. "Hugh is tough and romantic at the same time. Australian men are a different breed. They're rugged and they sweat."
Deborra-Lee Furness, Jackman's wife of 12 years, said the actor may have a "body of doom," but insists she likes "what's inside."
Asked what his wife's reaction was when she heard he had been declared People's 2008 Sexiest Man Alive, Jackman recalled: "God bless her, she said, 'I could've told them that years ago!' And then she said, 'Obviously, Brad wasn't available this year.' And I said, 'That was a joke, right?'"
Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Matt Damon are some of People's previous Sexiest Man Alive title-holders.
The magazine's 2008 list of sexy men also includes Daniel Craig, Jon Hamm, Zac Efron, Robert Buckley, Blair Underwood, Ed Westwick, Michael Phelps, Javier Bardem, Blake Shelton, Lang Lang, Robert Pattinson, Joshua Jackson and Mark-Paul Gosselaar.

Luna: For me Mr. Jackman is the most macho Hollywood hero I’ve ever seen in the screen.The tough guy yet so romantic also.He has the charm. Nicol is right,women’s jaws will certainly drop whenever they see Mr. Wolverine.My jaw are are going to drop also.ahahahaha..Congrats,Hugh.

The Healing 3 Words

Dear friends & readers,

Speak it as frequent as you can to your loved ones,for they are powerful words.I would like to practice it and see how it works.Now, go & say it,see the miracle it brings.

I’LL BE THERE

If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night,to take a sick child to hospital,or when your car has a broken down some miles from home,you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase ‘‘ill be there’’.Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give.When we are truly present for other people,important things happen to them and us.We are renewed in love and friendship.We are restored emotionally and spiritually.Being there is at the very core of civility.

I MISS YOU

Perhaps more marriages could be saved and strengthened if couples simply and sincerely said to each other “I miss you’’.This powerful affirmation tell partners they are wanted,needed,desired and loved.Consider how ecstatic you would feel,if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of workday just to say “I miss you”.

I RESPECT YOU

Respect is another way of showing love.Respect conveys the feeling that another person is a true equal.If you talk to your children as if they were adilts you will strengthened the bonds and become close friends.This applies to all interpersonal relationships.

MAYBE YOU’RE RIGHT

This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and restoring frayed emotions.The flip side to “maybe you’re right’’ is the humility of admitting “maybe I’m wrong”.Let’s face it.When you have a heated argument with someone ,all you do is cement the other point of view.They,or you, will not change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you and them.Saying “maybe you’re right’’ can open the door to further explore the subject,in which you may then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more rationale manner.

PLEASE FORGIVE ME

Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit mistakes and ask for forgiveness.All of us are vulnerable to faults,foibles and failures.A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the wrong ,which is saying,in other words,that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

I THANK YOU

Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy.People who enjoy the companionship of good,close friends are those who don’t take daily courtesies for granted.They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness.On the other hands,people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.

COUNT ON ME

Friend is one who walks in when others walk out.Loyalty is an essential ingredient for the true friendship; it is the emotional glue that bonds people.Those that are rich in their relationship tend to be steady and true friends.When troubles come,a good friends is there indicating you can “count on me”.

LET ME HELP

The best of friends see a need and try to fill it.When they spot a hurt they do what they can do to heal it without being asked,they pitch in and help.

I UNDERSTAND YOU

People become closer and enjoy each other more if they feel the other person accepts and understands them.Letting your spouse know in so many little ways that you understand them in so many little ways that you understand them is one of the most powerful tools for healing your relationship.

I LOVE YOU

Perhaps the most important 3 words that you can say.Telling someone that you can say.Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person’s deepest emotional needs;the need to belong,to feel appreciated and to be wanted.Your family,your friends and you,all need to need to hear 3 little words. “I love you” when spoken or conveyed,these statements have the power to forge new friendships,deepen old ones and restore relationships that have cooled.These 3 phrases can enrich every relationships.Use them!

Luna: sometimes people just want to hear those words.You may not know how important of those word to them.
