It was horrid.... horrible.... being overwhelmed, lost, unmotivated and depressed.....
My goodness..... i hated every inch and second of it.... but i apreciate what came out of it. It MADE me think, restructure, organize and clear things....nope belum habis...banyak lagi kena buat..its still there. The to do list is very long mind you....
Oh why do i have this boundless energy and ideas in me? Its very tiring.... no its not about being ungrateful.... because i am...3 wonderful kids, a marriage that actually works, a job not everyone can get...(many can do i pessume), wonderful friends and family, enough to eat (a little more than enough), my faith still intact... i realize this....
(im actually taking a break from my assignment, penat perah otak...relax jap k)
Ok... i dont really expect you to read, but if you find my ramblings of any use...please by all means...just dont judge and criticize (wait...people do that unintentionally and automatically so go ahead, just keep it to yourself....but people like talking about other beings..it gives them pleasure and a sense of comfort....so what the heck...go ahead)
Comfort? Yes the comfort zone.... get out of it! Its bad...your hips get larger.... go prickle your life with struggles and uncertaintie like me..... and get frustreated if things dont work out later....OR just stay there.... dont change...dont strugle and live a life of peace and harmony!!!
do the same thing over and over....get the same results...just dont complain. Im young...im ambitious...just let it be..ill mellow down at 40....!
:) gtg and string words together...anyone wanna help?
i know......siapa suruh baca?
Just Take Care ok everbody...and dont be nasty nor naughty.... wait...you get it.....

Thursday, October 15, 2009
I somehow find peace and think well while driving.... my mind wanders off, in out and about ... traffic jams better.... coz then i think about so many things... thats how hectic life is in KL....masa nak contemplate pun tak ada. Wait, thats because i have 3 kids.....now i think well when driving ALONE....terlupa nak selit pulak...Theres no time to sit and reflect sebab dari subuh ke isyak adaaaa jee benda nak buat...... jadi bila memandu, itulah masanya segala apa yang hendak dan patut dibuat terpancar dan menyala-nyala....dengan laju....
Laju...my mind laju.....tapi hari tu....blank...i went blank on air!!! i was like a zombie....that was the effect of stress mind you...(my fren kata, DIna even OPrah has her bad days...) thanks...a lot for trying...but.....oprah does have a good team...a really good team to cover her up...
so, my mind jumps from one thing to another with a snap of a finger.... you know some people are soo organized....semua benda kena tulis.... well technically, phsysicaly yes...the house, the cupboards....but my life? the to do list...and everythings all over...and then i add things to my plate.... my friend said..."thats the problem with you Dina...you dont know what you want".....dari dulu lagi...
Well, we dont HAVE to know what we want kan? jap....jump back to all over...its like bilik professor yang bersepah dan berterabur....JANGAN bersihkan...walaupun berterabur i know where everything is.... if i ever try to be that composed little lady....its not me...when its not me....its dead boring.....
but yes a little cleaning up wuld do good...haha there i go again.... ok to something that has been in mind among others....
Of Iraq and Afganistan and how stupid and helpless we are.... i have always been following the world news, maybe.... to a certain degree Abi influnced this fascination with 'other people and other matters in other countries that has nothing to do with you at all' ... i hate the thought that we are sometime to cooped up in our own litle world, hung up with our own litle views ... masa kecik2 dulu....pagi-pagi when we rush opur parents room, the litle grey radio will blast with BBC news....dulu tak ada Astro... so yes our parents habits do to a certain degree effect us..... and then theres that other habit that i just wont share..... i hear you mas....just shut the door!
Ok.....tadi ternampak dekat berita macamana Obama dok justify perang kat Afgan....kununnya sebab....US memang kena proceed with this war supaya mereka tak akan 'terkena' lagi serangan seperti 9/1...
Haloooooo......knock kncok...whos there...obama? obama who? o......ba ru menag nobel prize tapi hantar lagi tentera kat afgan.....mr obama sir with all due respect....serangan 9/11 telah dirancang di German dan Spain.....dan dilakukan oleh oarng dari Saudi.... berpusat di US sebab marah dengan dasar US yang dok mengipas Israel....
Taliban tak tahu menahu...yang dok bagi duit kat Taliban bukan Us ke......
I have to tke a break....coz my baby is crying and the bigger baby is leaving for Jakarta....let me pack his bags.....

Steal the heart......Safe guard It.....
Some people make their goals the stars,
They may live and die never reaching them,
but in the darkness of the night, those stars will guide them to their destination,
because they put them in their sights.
I might never reach my star.... i might never feel its qualities and properties in this palm of mind....i can only imagine...the brightness....the glow, the heat.... but i can see it.... and its guiding me... and at times it is dark.... but that shiny sparkle from the star i see..... from people around me keeps me going...... ok.... im doing that again..... rambling to nowhere.... thats just me.. and i love that in me...it makes me ...ME.....
lets take a look at this quote below.....
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
- Jalaluddin al-Rumi
I deliberately opened up Purification of Heart again.... Its a book i keep at my study table so i can easily reach it, when i feel the heart needs to be purified again.....when i need my heart to be sound again.....
If the heart is sound our actions will be sound....we need to work on our hearts...society needs to work to mend hearts which are filled with diseases.... like other disesases it is treatable...but first we have to recognize the signs and symptoms.... and then we need to treat it...
Says Hamza Yusoff...but just like medicinal prescriptions, the physician cant force you to take it...no one can force u to swallow it down....
"The heart is designed to be in a state of calm.....which is achieve with the remembrance of God. This calm is what the heart seeks out and gravitates to. The heart yearns for it...."
"BUt when God is not remembered, when human beings forget God, then the heart falls into a state of agitation and turmoil. In this state it becomes vulnerable to diseases because it is undernourished and cut off. Cell requires oxygen, so we breathe. If we stop breathing we die. THe heart also needs to breathe, and the breath of the heart is none other then the remembrance of God"
A sick heart needs nourishment.....Heedlessness starves the heart, robs it of its spiritual manna. WHen people are completely immerse in the material world, believing that this world is all that matters and all that exists and that they are NOT accountable for their actions, they effect a spiritual death of their hearts"
Wrongdoings irritates the heart....i feel that...and whenever i do i jump up again..... i just pray for the strength..and no one can give it to me except for Allah.
The heart is so incredible.... it beats 100000 times a day....it pumps 2 gallons of blood per minute and over 100 gallons per hour....that IS an exhausting task...... the heart does this even before the brain is formed.....the heart was created first.....
Listen to your heart and not your ego. Your ego prompts you to boast of vain assertions to obtain the glory of this world. Turn away from vanity and seek Him in the recesses of your heart and soul
[Fayuz E Yazdani]
Lately ive been questioning why things happen the way they did...why me i ask.... at a point of time i actually feel i dont deserve it..... but this attitude is a denial of God's qadar....but should we be happy when bad things befalls us?
God knows whats best for you.We cant choose what befalls us yes.....some are inevitable true.....The prophet went through worse....he never met his parents, hes beloved wife died...so did most of his children..... he was called a madman, a liar, people threw stones at him until he bled...whats that compared to our life? That should always put us back on track again.
..... the response is patience...a beautiful patience, a skill i have yet to master....
God is testing me....., but it is His will and there is wisdom in it.....
Its not that bad i say.........i can still smile and play.....
Alhamdulillah...
LOve,

Warning...this entry does not make sense...:)
Its tough...... yes it is.....its life.....
Some get it easy...... some dont...some wants it easy......some just complicate theirs....some keep it simple....some just dont care...some throw theirs down the drain...some...some just let it be...just let days pass......wasting it away..... like old dry leaves.... wrinkled creased, crisp and craggy.....
Theres decisions and then theres actions ....
Theres implications and then theres causation....
Theres things you just want to do...but never get to do.....
And then theres things you dont want to do but .....just do...coz err....u have too??
its not about wanting...its about doing what needs to be done.....
i dont make sense do i.... nevermind...i rarely do..... tu yang mengacara macam budak sekolah tu....
Ada tak orang baca artikel dalam utusan hari tu?
now,now...yes im not the best.... i make mistakes..... i have my moods...sometimes theres so much problems that although i try to hide it on air..nampak jugak kecelaruan tu....
I try though... tapi komen2 yang clearly sebab dengki dan iri hati tak patut disiarkan.... i would think if im a datin or married to someone yang kaya raya, ada pangkat....mesti tak keluar surat mcm tu...
Manusia.....lagi2 kat Malaysia (sebab kat Aussie, serious tak ada penyakit gila gelaran dan harta serta kereta macam ni) if you dont have the money, you dont have the contacts (i rarely send hampers to reporters and meet them nowdays, in fact i never do...theres the problem maybe.....) then they think they can trample on you..... except those who actualy know me, sat down with me.... but i dont have the luxury......
i would and will try to improve...but dont bring me down sebab sakit hati...dengki atau iri hati.. read hamza yusofs purification of the heart.....! WOuld do u, me and all of us some good....... im reading it again now! But wait..... i have my thick textbooks to read...! arghhh so little time....so many things to do.... time management..........any experts out there? coz im seriously desperately need to regulate my time.....
anyway, anyhow.....a scholar once said...dont run away and shun your enemies...for its them who will tell you the truth..... so listen to them.... and i should and shall do just that...thank you....
Yes the world is round.......round...rolling..... so is life.....
the pins knocked by the heavy rolling ball.....
If yours go into the drain..... try again.....

Kembara
Ive always admired Dr Asri Zainul Abidin.... he's words, his thoughts, his opinions on matters, on religion, in politics, in life and just the way he views and put words together...
Thank you for being 'you' Dr...we need more people like you around... i wish to be if not equal (err i dont think ever for now....) well, .at least somewhat of a bit of a person you are..... like maybe sikit sangat2 je pun jadi........ plan and plan and read and learn and yearn.....
Ok...ok..enough...tapi artikel Dr Asri pada 16 Ogod di Utusan Malaysia beanr-benar memberi saya inspirasi..... kenapa? kerana ianya begitu jujur sekali..... bukanlah sebelum ini ia tak jujur, kadangkala techniqal sangat so sometimes ill skip the para......and go right to the conclusion....this article, adalah mengenai pandangan Dr mengenai hidup yang kita SEMUA boleh jadikan iktibar dan renung-renungkan..... It made me stop and ponder... yeah i do that often and do that all the time.....
Dr berada di Lampeter ketika menulis artikel itu...samalah Dr, saya juga cuma dapat berdoa supaya satu hari dapatlah saya menjejakkan kaki dan belajar serta mengembara ke sana suatu hari nanti.....Dr sudah termakbul dua'nya....saya? Mana tau....siapa tahu.....well, not to Lampeter per say...but just study, live and learn in the UK....it has always been a dream... for when we explore the world...we learn to adapt and change our world views and we open up our minds and we strive to understand things or people or 'other-different ways' of doing things...of seeing things....of 'experiencing' the moment and 'feel' and touch..... its just the people i want to meet, the great minds i would like to talk with and exchange ideas with...i want to see what they do, HOW they do it......
"Hari berganti, manusia berubah kedudukan, keadaan dan berbagai lagi. Allah mengubah iklim dan warnai hidup kita dengan berbagai cara. Kesemua itu menerusui dalam perjalanan kehidupan dunia. Maka kita pun sedar, kita adalah kembara yang merentasi benua kehidupan untuk sampai ke satu perhentian yang bernama 'kematian'"
"Hidup ini bagaikan lautan yang luas. Kita hanyalah perahu kecil yang sedang menongkah gelombang. Lihatlah betapa ramai yang 'gah' dengan kedudukan dan jawatan mereka semalam, hari ini tiada lagi kemegahan itu. Siapa yang dapat memastikan hari esok membawa bahagia kepadanya? Sebagai muslim, untuk merentasi benua kehidupan ini, tiada lain yang dapat kita bertaut meainkan at-tawakkal 'ala Allah ata bergantung harapan pada Allah. JIwa apabila benar-benar bergantung harapan kepada Allah, keajaiban hidup akan berlaku tanpa diduga" nak menagis baca okay...???
i loved this quote Dr Asri made from Abu Firas al-'Amiri a poet known as Majd al-'Arab ;-
"Berpisahlah nescaya kaudapat ganti orang yang kau tinggalkan. Menggembaralah di bumi nescaya temui petunjuk dalam perjalanan itu. Singa jika tidak meninggalakan hutannya tidak akan garang. Anak panah jika tidak meninggalkan busarnya tidak akan mengena sasaran" - Man, how do people know which book to read......beautiful ey? Arghhhh... nothing is more beautiful than a written word...
People change when they travel.., it will leave a mark, a memory, we learn a thing or two...or some may learn none maybe......if they're intention to travel is only to have FUN and SHOP...how shallow some are...but hey, we come in different packages, we all say......
Imam al-Syafie changed many of his fatwa's when visiting Iraq..also when he saw new things in Eygpt...
We need to change for its vital for our survival..yes indeed..change its not ever easy and can be really scary....but its a necesity... however having said that, we never ever 'change' our Islamic principles...it just grows and we develop further understandings and appreciate different interpretations by different people....
"Hidup adalah kembara. Semua kita pasti akan sampai ke satu destinasi yang bernama kematian. Cumanya dalam kembara di benua yang luas ini, setiap kita melalui denai, lurah, lorong, lembah, jalan dan dataran yang tak mungkin sama. Namun perhentiannya satu, kita akan Menghadap Tuhan yang Maha Adil. Perjalanan pasti akan berakhir. Cuma yang kita rungsingkan adalah bagaimana ianya akan berakhir. - my god, i question that constantly...about almost everything..but this next sentence...... made it crystal bohemian glass clear.... - "namun tiada yang lebih indah daripada perasaan bergantung harap kepada Allah. Benua kehidupan terlalu luas dan menakutkan. Banyak kejahatan dan juga kebaikan. Moga Allah selamatkan kita sema dalam meneruskan kembara hidup."
Lovely Dr....thanks!
Nite! i soooo need to finish my novel and book...and mummy diary..... arghhhhhh! Endless responsibilities....
but as long as we remain calm, serene, collected and focused, we will see how easy it is to get through....i have to repeat this like every day when i start to fluster and get kelam kabut....
its just that - sometimes were the statue and sometimes were the pigeon indeed...i would prefer to be a gull though...wait maybe a dove...urgh..... :))
Love.....

Frankly....its Franky and its Creepy.....
Mary Shelly's Frankestein....
I dont know why tapi saya teringat sangat dekat Frankenstein..... one of the most famous horror stories of all time...... an epic love story, a study of human relationships, ambition and pride the story also deals with science and was set in the 1700's - the age of enlightenment and reason...... go figure...brilliant this Mary Shelly seorang Romantis.... i likeeee.....
full of parallel, contrast and ironies...gosh sounds seriously like my life...maybe yours too....
Victor was a sad case.... we cant play god.... we shouldn't play with fire.....never ever....never ever...now that song by i dont know who is humming in my mind....never ever.....STOP!!! urgh....the irony of the story is that it all started with love but turned out the utmost opposite....
Frankenstein....the movie directed by Kenneth Branagh portrays real life.....yes it does....cuba tgk balik.....it illustrates the both good and evil qualities in life. It showed the cost of running away from your responsibilities and how it took only one man to create a monster.
Franky was initially not a threat at all....he started out as kind and wanted to understand his surroundings....he longed for friends after learning of love, compasion and acceptance from a distance.... he was fond of the family he spied on....very much indeed..... he hoped the 'family' would appreciate the good things he did for them......
then...ta da....maybe big mistake he made (tapi sampai bilakah seseorang itu harus bersembunyi bukan) - he made his apperane presence - but alas!!! only the blind old man accepted him...the others? they were disgusted by the sight of this Franky 'creature' assuming the initially kind Franky was there to harm them.....
Oh dear...oh my.....physical appearance means so much more than mental capacity...physical appearance means so much more than what someone has inside them to potentially give...... and what struck me was that we all...all of us have a little bit of this ugly character inside of us.....
Tragedy by tragedy confronts him, but his creator was no where in sight to take responsibility... hes creator betrayed him.....Franky wanted revenge......he ran away and opted for the easy way out...just shoot Franky he says....how could you Victor...how could you shoot something you yourself created....
It wasnt his fault Franky acted like that.....you Victor...youre suppose to be the smart one....but initially he lost to a 'monster' he didnt even finish off..... in this case my dear readers...(err ada ke readers?) being 'intelligent' only brought misery......
we all need love......but love alone is never enough, for what is love??? SOmeone once said, okay not someone but a quote or proverb or something like that...." Love is when you lust for whats inside and Lust is when you love what you see".... oh dearie!
We need love, yes we do....but discipline and guidance...being balanced...will make sure we dont turn into a selfish, self centered immature man like Victor Frankenstein ****thunder and lighting bolt strikes*******
Never start something if you know you cant uphold your responsibility to it...you could and many people do...until its too late....well...perhaps we can all learn.... just continue to learn......

I dont know why tapi saya teringat sangat dekat Frankenstein..... one of the most famous horror stories of all time...... an epic love story, a study of human relationships, ambition and pride the story also deals with science and was set in the 1700's - the age of enlightenment and reason...... go figure...brilliant this Mary Shelly seorang Romantis.... i likeeee.....
full of parallel, contrast and ironies...gosh sounds seriously like my life...maybe yours too....
Victor was a sad case.... we cant play god.... we shouldn't play with fire.....never ever....never ever...now that song by i dont know who is humming in my mind....never ever.....STOP!!! urgh....the irony of the story is that it all started with love but turned out the utmost opposite....
Frankenstein....the movie directed by Kenneth Branagh portrays real life.....yes it does....cuba tgk balik.....it illustrates the both good and evil qualities in life. It showed the cost of running away from your responsibilities and how it took only one man to create a monster.
Franky was initially not a threat at all....he started out as kind and wanted to understand his surroundings....he longed for friends after learning of love, compasion and acceptance from a distance.... he was fond of the family he spied on....very much indeed..... he hoped the 'family' would appreciate the good things he did for them......
then...ta da....maybe big mistake he made (tapi sampai bilakah seseorang itu harus bersembunyi bukan) - he made his apperane presence - but alas!!! only the blind old man accepted him...the others? they were disgusted by the sight of this Franky 'creature' assuming the initially kind Franky was there to harm them.....
Oh dear...oh my.....physical appearance means so much more than mental capacity...physical appearance means so much more than what someone has inside them to potentially give...... and what struck me was that we all...all of us have a little bit of this ugly character inside of us.....
Tragedy by tragedy confronts him, but his creator was no where in sight to take responsibility... hes creator betrayed him.....Franky wanted revenge......he ran away and opted for the easy way out...just shoot Franky he says....how could you Victor...how could you shoot something you yourself created....
It wasnt his fault Franky acted like that.....you Victor...youre suppose to be the smart one....but initially he lost to a 'monster' he didnt even finish off..... in this case my dear readers...(err ada ke readers?) being 'intelligent' only brought misery......
