Far away


This year Eid Mubarak, I celebrate it far away from my hometown. I am with in-law parent celebrating the festival in Pahang for the first time since 2 years after married. The environment is definitely different and there are people really active in Raya night with Mercun, Bunga Api and bakar-bakar as well as makan- makan. I'm happy with the environment hence I've got stomach pain because of sudden of having all the foods like satay, pacak, sup itik, sup ayam, rendang, ketupat and lots more. The gathering is so much fun, happiness and lot of things to share. Eventhough I am
far away from home, I still miss my hometown, Batu Gajah. It is still a rare feeling to be celebrate at where I've born. None of others can beat that feeling. Raya is the best for gathering among all siblings, but when come to life after married, I've more siblings and I need to consider them to be my precious and then my Raya at both side will be meaningful. Happy Eid Mubarak, hope this year onward will be showered by Rahmat from Allah S.W.T.
Amin.

The 27 update

Part 9

Few days more to celebrate Eid. This year preparation is quite big as I'm gonna celebrate it with new love, Aliya, new home, new hometown, new car and few other things which is new for me. Although all the newest come together into the Eid, I'm upset with what I've done in Ramadhan this year as myself seems like having very poor of intensive, awareness, actions or performances and the failure of time managing to get myself closer with Allah S.W.T. When come to the end of Ramadhan, I'll calculate the percentage of performance from what I've recorded in all days of the Ramadhan Month in order to build self awareness and action to be taken. 2 years back, if I afford to reached above the bench mark, but this year it is sad to say that it might be below that. Don't know where were wrong. I always wanted to make Ramadhan is my month of turning point as well as the starter and remain the momentum until the next Ramadhan. The graph went down drastically and for sure life is going harder. Since the performance is below from what it supposed to be, it posses a small momentum as my stock to live a year until the next check point (Ramadhan). From here, I know that I'm still weak as the more comfort I'm the more of ignorance in myself.

Raya Wave

August update - The month of 8 is nothing that really interesting for me to ceciter here. By the way, Ramadhan this year is giving me more awareness about self management, the knowledge to be filled in my head more and more again since the momentum internally going slow with old knowledge which has been cold by my own stubburness. I am taking action but still less than what it supposed to be and I am like bull move like a crazy with no specific destination. There is something I missing out. Recently, I went to Kuala Lumpur (KL) more often every weekend since month of June. I seek for the opportunities, meet a few successful and millionaire people, sending my wife for her class, shopping, seminars and visit KLCC for no reason. But, I am little bit upset when I couldn't make it for the Minisite class which is free organized by Richwork Sdn Bhd and also missed the opportunity of breaking fast event with PUIM, WangCyber, Majalah Niaga and others. I couldn't make it because I didn't have transport for that day - Saturday, 4th Aug. My car was in workshop after had broke down a week before at Behrang Highway. 5th Aug - My car repaired and ready to used, so I sent my wife for her class at SPACE KL. In my head, it would be nice if the minisite class and breaking fast event held at KL today and not yesterday. Nevermind, today I decided to visit Amcorp Mall to see what is happening there. Plus, today is the best day for me to shopping raya. KL, like always, jammed, jammed and jammed. Not only on the road, but in shopping complex too. There were soo many people shopping raya too. Macam ulat tahi. I and my wife bought something for our daughter for her first raya this year. KL, a lot of RAYA promotions to digged people's pocket. I am one of those people. Once a year, it doesn't matter. This is what makes me more worry, more and more output and less and less input. My Ramadhan activities also are very slow compare to previous years. The percentage of plan27 may be not going to reach 50% this year. Hmmm... This post is wake-up alarm for me.

Malam Qadar

Alhamdulillah! Kita sudah sampai di penghujung Ramadhan dan Carilah Lailatul Qadar di 10 malam terakhir Ramadhan dan di malam-malam yang ganjil. Pemurahnya, Adilnya dan Sayangnya Allah S.W.T pada kita sehingga Dia memberi peluang untuk kita meraih pahala ibadat selama 1000 bulan bersamaan 83 tahun yang hanya terdapat di Malam qadar. Betapa ruginya aku kalau membiarkan 10 malam terakhir ini berlalu begitu sahaja. Peringatan untuk diriku yang selalu alpa dengan dunia yang sementara.
