Wishes fulfilled..yeeaayy!

Helloooo..everybody...I am back on the track..

See...I told ya...This one "IT+workaholic" kindhearted person...has solved my problem...

I remembered being told by one of my friends that men do not have to go far to sharpen his problem solving skills..everything in the house offers him good subjects....: D

I am so happy+grateful...

So..lets see...where did I stop?

Longing for the news


Sometimes I wonder...if I am thought so often as I do ..(.never fail.) .towards them...

I kind of surprise when being told. during the last school holidays ..:"the warden said we cd not write letters la mama..becoz, the system is not there yet...no one is available yet to post our letters.....and phone booth is only available during evening between 5-6 only and Saturday weekend, ..and becoz of the tight time table and at times long queue..payah le nak tepon mama.tapi mama jgn risau le..kitorang ok...""

Say what??

Back then during my school years..I remembered my friends and me ..normally during those little time before lights shd be put off...or secretly during prep....each and every one us..(at least for those next to my compartment).wd quietly scribble something...No matter how the letters shall be read later by the prefects or teacher in charged..we found solace in writing...

...And I do think those letters help a lot in sharpening our writing skill...(tak kira le ..merapu ..merepek..meraban)..I do think also..when receiving letters from my parents...or friends..or penpals..(he..he..I think the latter were most welcome...well.. talk about exchange exam papers kunun!..the rest is self-explained!!)..they really played as a boosting factor..for the morale..etc..

..Also..I think everybody was looking forward for their names to be announced at dinner for registered latter, parcel, what-so-ever

But I guess..those were the days..now every school probably opt for new system...for the better...I presume..

So..as a mother who misses so much of the children ...what more can I hope for??

Crazy I am..if I heard beep for sms or the phone suddenly ringing..I wd go frantic...(even when being in the t*****)...frustrated if it turned out to be fr unexpected source, e.g: celcom announcing my prepaid credit wd expire in the next couple of days...alamak!!bowink!

It has been quite some time now...as a result of a long break ..I can see that my handwriting is like 'cakar ayam'..but I still write..even though...the chances of getting a reply is very slim...

...But to my dear kak long and kak ngah..if u happened to drop by your computer lab...at least do not rush to open you myspace, friendster., whatever..la... Do care to drop me a line..pls...I know u r online at ym...even though u r invisible..I simply know...mother has instincts what!!!jeng-jeng-jeng!!

Penantian satu seksa yang tidak tertanggung..
Oleh tubuh ku yang kering dan layu...

Kepastian satu penawar, dalam suka dan duka
Yang meniti hidupku...
~ excerpt form lyrics : Penantian by Zubir Ali/Harmoni~

OOOooo Why?



Last night my daughter - M3 suddenly crashed a news: " Mama...mouse problem...tak syok la.."

Of coz, it aint the mouse as it sounds...

But one of the computer devices at home suddenly not responding...


So thats it..why now??? OOoo...why?...(hujung-hujung bulan ni...aduhai..not in my budget...)

So ..what to do??

Funny that now I am sitting in front of my pc..trying to compose a post without a mouse..can u imagine..I just have to crack my mind and fingers actually..to patiently tab and tab....and tab agian..(Right from switching on this computer..finding the icon..connect to internet....this is certainly the least I expect to happen...)oopppsss...I just passed that icon..so ...shift tab and the cursor wd move back..but how about reducing the window...alamak..ini bikin saya banyak susah hati....bikin banyak kerja..lama kelamaan rasanya hampir putus asa....lambatnye...I cd go berserk like this...pls don't laugh!!

Again , I am announcing here..sorry...apologies....until I cd find a new mouse...

Resting my case....Shall miss every one!!Nice day..

Do not forget to remember me...( I must find another hobby for the mean time...)

A day without internet....poor me.....

Ta! Ta! Not sure whether this shall go through...Cross my fingers...

Tidak sempat..? (haven't got the chance)???

During my working years...I used to jot down a 'to-do-list' in my journal..normally early in the morning..before I start whatever task to be done that morning..as I ve been told..my list should specify very clearly:-

  1. Priority and most important and urgent
  2. Important but not urgent
  3. Urgent
  4. Important
So..years after that and now a full time mother at home..I thought planning is important..and time management is priority and stress management is urgent...

But who'd care...what more..everything cd go hay wire..especially when one are managing people..and please..those HR practitioner out there..please give me a pad at my back..no..not on my shoulder..please..as I think ..I carry enough burden.

Grounded at home...I used to think I could handle everything...especially the 'kebajikan' of my kids and to put up to my En Musa's expectation...to pay extra attention to my kids' studies...(Amboi...main perintah-perintah lak!)..pas tu nak kena pulak maintain cun bila suami pulang..kena berlakun jadi isteri solehah...

As there are so many things in my head..i mean..err..the to-do-list...which one to do first...some times they all got jumble up and down..Senang cerita...buat ape yang termampu je lah...banyak yang tak sempat...haven't got the chance to complete many task...By the end of the day..I normally seek Allah's forgiveness..for my all wrong doings of the day..especially if I did not carry out my obligations properly...Aku hanya insan biasa...aduhai..

Serupa juga dengan suamiku itu...yang antara paling aku nak komen..adalah kerana tidak pernah sempat menjenguk blog ini...sekali dulu semasa baru 'launched'..kot..

Macamano tu!!Ape eden nak buek dengan spesis makhluk ini...?

Itu lah..eden dah kato yang suami eden seorang penggiat IT yang sangat komited...tak percayo..

Ini bermakna..jari2 ini akan lebih laju mengetuk papan kekunci...meluahkan rasa hati..yang terbuku..yang terpendam...harapan..cinta..gejolak rasa, gurindam jiwa dan air mata..hu..hu...

Tapi sempena cuti maulidul rasul hari ini..eden ade gak sound kat suami eden yang pencinta IT sesungguhnya itu..(mujur bukan pencinta wanita lain yg tidak sepatutnya!!...alamak kalau ade pun..eden pasrah la oiii)..bahawa:-


It is ok..I can manage many things...U wouldn't have the chance to find my faults ok...everything tip top punya...and It is ok too, if u wouldn't have the chance to peek into my blog...(lagi la eden suko.!!oops..para bloggers kehendak hatiku tidak sesuai untuk kamu ikuti..)....but..but...and but..


If you ever forget that the kids are ur priority too..than...sendiri jawablah nanti...ini amanah datang dari siapa?..ponat leh eden ni...rasonya..kalau bole..bila lah nak pencen??Anak2 yang bosar kelmarin masa coti skola..tak do menulungnye.apo kono eh..budak2 asrama serupa ini..sibuk kerja sekolah jo!..kosian la kat eden ni...Eden frust la gak dengan anak2 yang manja..tapi apo nak di kato!!

Ampun maaf..dari hujung rambut sampai hujung kaki...almaklum..syurga para isteri di tapak kaki suami...(Omak den pun pernah kato dulu...Ekau yang pilih sendiri..La..ai..raso je lah..jgn ngeluh panjang-panjang....)..

Tazkirah ..A wife...

This article was posted into my ex-school egroup and I thot..why not share in this blog..a reminder..as well..a tazkirah...a good example of the Prophet Muhammad S.a.w..

Salam Maulidul Rasul

***************A Wife**************


A talk by Shaykh Abdullah Adhami

By getting married you are not just getting a wife,
you are getting your whole world.

From now until the rest of your days
your wife will be your partner, your companion,

and your best friend.

She will share your moments, your days, and your years.

She will share your joys and sorrows, your successes and
failures, your dreams and your fears.

When you are ill, she will take the best care of you;

when you need help, she will do all she can for you;

When you have a secret, she will keep it;

when you need advice, she will give you the best advice.

She will always be with you: when you
wake up in the morning the first thing your eyes will
see will be hers;

during the day, she will be with you, if for a
moment she is not with you by her physical body,

she will be thinking of you,
praying for you with all her heart, mind, and soul;
when you go to sleep at night, the last thing your eyes will see will
be her; and when you are asleep you will still see her in your dreams.

In short, she will be your whole world and

you will be her whole world.

The best description that I personally have ever read
describing the closeness of the spouses to each other

is the Qur'anic verse which
says: "they are your garments and you are their
garments"
(Surah Al Baqarah 2:187).

Indeed, spouses are like garments to each other
because they provide one another with the protection, the comfort, the
cover, the support, and the adornment that garments provide to humans.
Just imagine a journey in the winter of Alaska without garments!

Our spouses provide us with the same level of comfort, protection, cover,
and support in the journey of our lives on this earth as garments would
do in the Alaskan journey.

The relationship between the spouses is the most
amazing of all human relations:

the amount of love and affection,intimacy and
closeness, mercy and compassion, peace and
tranquillity that fills the hearts of the spouses is simply inexplicable.

The only rational explanation for these most amazing of all human
feelings is that: it is an act of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala,

"And Allah has made for you Mates (and Companions) of your own nature ..."

(Surah Al Nahl 16:72)

Only our Almighty Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala in His Infinite Power,
Boundless Mercy, and Great Wisdom can create and ingrain these
amazing and blessed feelings in the hearts of the spouses.

In fact Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is reminding those who
search for His signs in the universe that these feelings in the
hearts of the spouses are among the signs that should guide humans
to His existence as He says in the Qur'an,

"And among His signs is this, that He created for you mates from among

yourselves that you may dwell in tranquillity with them and He has put love
and mercy between your hearts: verily in that are signs for
those who reflect." (Surah Al Rum 30:21)

But Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala knows that

the human heart is not a static entity,

it is sometimes weak and at times dynamic.

Feelings can and do change with time.

Love may wither and fade away.

The marital bond might weaken if not properly cared for.
Happiness in marriage cannot be taken for granted;

Continuous happiness requires constant giving from both sides.

For the tree of marital love to remain alive and keep growing,

the soil has to be sustained, maintained, watered and nurtured.

Remember that our Prophet Muhammad Salallaahu 'aliahi
wa'sallaam had found the time to go out to the desert and race
with his wife Aisha. She out ran him but later

after she had gained some weight, he out ran her.

Remember that the Prophet Salallaahu 'aliahi
wa'sallaam took his wife to watch the young Ethiopians playing and dancing
their folk dances. The show of emotions is necessary to keep the
marital bond away from rusting and disintegrating.

Remember that you will be rewarded by Allah Subhanahu
wa Ta'ala for any emotions you show to your wife as the Prophet
Salallaahu 'aliahi wa'sallaam said

"one would be rewarded for anything that he does
seeking the pleasure of Allah even the food that he
puts in the mouth of his wife."

Never underestimate the importance of seemingly little
things as putting food in your wife's mouth,

opening the car's door for her,etc.

Remember that the Prophet Salallaahu 'aliahi
wa'sallaam used to extend his knee to his wife to assist her up to ride
the camel.

Try to always find some time for both of you to pray
together. Strengthening the bond between you and Allah Subhanahu
wa Ta'ala is the best guarantee that your own marital bond would
always remain strong.

Having peace with Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will always
result in having more peace at home.

Remember that the Prophet Salallaahu 'aliahi wa'sallaam gave glad
tidings for those couples who wake up at night to pray
together. The Prophet Salallaahu 'aliahi wa'sallaam even urged the
spouse who rises up first to wake the other spouse up even by
throwing cold water on his/her face.

Always try your best to be good to your wife by words and by deeds.
Talk to her, smile to her, seek her advice, ask for her opinion,
spend quality time with her and always remember that the Prophet
Salallaahu 'aliahi wa'sallaam said

"the best of you are those who are best to their wives."

Finally, it is common that spouses vow to love and
honor their spouses until death do them part.

I do believe that this vow is good or even great, but not enough!

It is not enough that you love your wife.

You have to love what she loves as well.

Her family, her loved ones must also become your loved ones.

Don't be like my colleague who was unhappy about his wife's parents

coming to visit for few weeks.

He candidly said to her "I don't like yourparents."
Naturally, she angrily looked at him straight in theeye and said "
I don't like yours either"... Also, it is not enough that you love
her until death do you part.

Love should never end and we do believe
there is life after death where those who did
righteousness in thisworld will be joined by their spouses

(Surah Al Zukhruf 43:70) and offsprings.

The best example in this regard is the Prophet
Salallaahu 'aliahi wa'sallaam whose love for Khadija, his wife of 25
years extended to include all those she loved and continued even after
her death. It was many years after her death and he never forgot her
and whenever a goat was slaughtered in his house he would send
portions of it to Khadija's family and friends and whenever he felt that
the visitor at the door might be Khadija's sister Hala, he would
pray saying "O Allah let it be Hala."

And these days..I am more sentimental.....appreciate ur spouse!!!

To my friend who has lost her husband


My Dear Helza,

You will not, I hope, think me intrusive at such time if I write a few lines to tell you of my deep sympathy and sorrow for your bereavement.

Nothing that one can say in such circumstances can adequately express the feelings which all entertain for you, but it will be some little consolation for you to remember even in your deep grief that your hubby was so greatly loved and respected by us all, and that we sincerely mourn the loss of a friend who had endeared himself to every one......Alfatihah.. I enclosed here an excerpt of my friend's blog who had known your husband : wanshana ( article entitle : apolitical no more...hope u don't mind shana..)..in one of her postings :-

.
.....A friend of Ayah's just passed away 2 hours ago. He was 40 years old. He finally succumbed to colon cancer which was only diagnosed less than 2 months ago.......He left behind a wife, and 4 small kids - the youngest being 3 years old.........May you rest in peace, Jim - Allahyarham Zulkifli Muhammadun (1968-2008)...AlFatihah....
...and Helza was calm that night..


Here is her husband's comment ( in reply to my comment) :-
Arwah Zul M was one of the nicest person I had known...A very good Muslim, who never uttered a bad word about anyone. I was with him the night before. We had a good chat. He was being himself..in his usual high spirit.
We have indeed lost a truly remarkable friend. Sama2lah kita doakan agar roh arwah dicucuri rahmat dan ditempatkan bersama orang2 yg beriman...

See, Helza, your husband was famously known as a very nice muslim..I am sure isn't this what all of us been hoping..to be remembered in the nicest way when we are gone...My prayers that his/your generations and ours follow suit...and as we have known each other since Abr** days..I know you are strong..remember u were also the one who had given me support during my grief over the demise of my mother..


I loss my dear mother due to the same cancer. I was with her performing umrah in Mecca when the doctor said she has just another few months after the operation but she survived almost a year.. She was a survivor until the end of her life...It wasn't easy carrying her around on a wheel chair..I guess that time it was Allah strength that had made me strong...Remembering her endless cried at night of the pain, boredom of swallowing pills, bloated stomach and knees for water retention..(cancer had spread to her liver), calling after her dear ones when nearing her death...I surely know the feeling taking care of our dear ones...each time counting minutes..not sure whether I had done enough to lessen the pain...or even worse..sleepless night...scared of i'd be dozed long enough without having the chance to see her the next morning...I miss her so much..still am..but as I mentioned in my sms to u..Allah has his plans...he has promised test to each and every one of us...Be strong my friend..

Also, my dear daddy left us behind for stomach cancer...again and again during his days..asked me to take care of my children..take care....take care...that last touch on my cheek was actually his last touch...a father to her daughter...still miss him..

I hope..you are strong..and do not let grief take over you for a long time as it did to me...


I was quite worried as u didn't reply any of my calls and sms...but later the next evening pop up this sms of urs (and I am very relief.).:-

Thx K.ita. I'm ok. Pls pray for Allah to give me strength to take care of the 4 zuls...
Later in another reply to my sms when asking how are the boys doing...u replied:-

Ok. 1st excellent.2nd demam. 3rd refuse going to school. But its ok. Stil in tadika. 4th stop asking for Zul coz t answer is still t same.Alhamdulilah..Slowly adjusting..
You will, I trust, pardon my suggestion that if I can in any way be of assistance to you in your trouble you have but to tell me.

Trusting that time may serve to lessen your great sorrow, and heal the terrible wound you have sustained, I am, with true sympathy...

Insy'Allah..both of you shall be reunited again in Jannah..


Salam Kaseh sayang....K.Eta

p/s: I am adult orphan...that left me with a husband...for me to confide in many things. ...I'd rather not say here of my worries if the same thing happen...so from now on..I am saying to myself..to appreciate my partner...cherish the love..for as long as we'r still together..Merajuk pada yang sayang..Berkasih pada yang sudi...

Kalis rindu..

If translated into English..simply means..

Ooo..oo.. not that easy..Can anyone help?

If 'kalis bunyi' = sound proof

If 'kalis air' = water proof

The list go on...

But this 'kalis rindu'...a new song mad by the new generations..a catchy song..I simply go blank..

Am missing somebody?..am missing something?

So..what am I rambling about at this moment???

Perhaps ..too much..of Raja Lawak jokes, or too much worried over a friend who'd just lost her husband or recent polls' result..(couldn't be..) .or end of school holidays that I loss all the energy and require badly for the 'mc'...and ayah has to go iron his own baju..becoz...isterinya mengambil kesempatan untuk cuti berehat..setelah berkecimpung dengan giat melayan kerenah anak-anak masa cuti sekolah yang baru-baru ini...



To be continued...

p/s:..Pemikiran tiba-tiba menjadi agak perlahan..entah ape-ape yang difikirkan


( Will be right backk!!)...I remain....a mother of four...

RM 25.90...

That was it...I lost a RM25.90 battle over my kid's school shoes..and I'm pretty mad.. actually..very mad at this 'one person'..that i swear...come rain or shine..that wd be my last visit to his shop..and I'd swear..my generation would either!

I bought m3 school shoes yesterday...as a birthday present and also to replace her worn shoes bought 2 years ago...i did not realize actually the shoe's magnet actually is not 'up-to'..but when i got home yesterday my instinct just feel 'not-right' as the box looked a little funny..

I quickly wipe 'shoe-white' on it..so that it'd dry fast ..and I think I did saw that the buckle was somehow funny as well..but I was not that clever ..continue to finish the wiping..leave them dry.. ..hopefully m3 wd get to wear them.

Today around 1 pm, m3 complained that she cd not buckle the magnet..'dah patah'.. broken..luckily she still has another shoe which she doesn't quite like...sebab tapak dah haus....

La..I was...$#@*?!!!!

I went back straight to the shop after sending m3 to her school together with goodie bags for her classmate...

I showed the shoes to the 'pakcik'..but becoz I had wipe them with show white..that 'pakcik' arrogantly denied my request for an exchange...grumbling and nagging over the loss and other losses that he had suffered becoz many parents request for exchange...

He nagged...on and on..

I cd feel that I am losing my temper..so I said:-

Me: " Pakcik..saya pelanggan tetap...sejak duduk sini saya..rasa hampir 4 tahun..macam2 kelengkapan sekolah saya beli di sini..baju pengakap, puteri islam, kasut, beg, baju sekolah, baju dalam, topi, selipar,tudung..,anak tudung...dsg...ini kasut ..saya rasa pakcik saje tak perasan..masukkan dalam kotak ..yang dah koyak hujung ni...jual pada orang..entah2..ni kasut reject..pakcik ..saje jual..kot-kot pelanngan tak perasan dan malas nak susah-payah pulang..jadi pakcik untung le....lepas tu... pakcik...bising tentang kerugian..tentang orang lain yang buat pakcik rugi...Ini rm 25.90...rm25.90!..berbaloi kah dengan jumlah untung pada barang lain yang saya dah beli!!!( Ape lak nak jawab pada Ayah!..ini pakcik tak mau kasi tukar kasut!!)...My heart beat faster...

Pakcik: "Tak boleh tukar!..Saya dah rugi banyak!
For few seconds..I was speechless...(ape ni???? I said to myself!!)..tried hard not to burst my anger..
Me: Tak pe lah pakcik..simpan je lah kasut ni.....kiralah untung pakcik banyak2!! Jgn lupa ..ade 2 lagi kedai kasut baru buka kat sini.......( there goes my big mouth!)..Was i rude?

I went away..with all the 'not-nice' feelings..I was frustrated...I think I just let the pakcik won...I think it's just not worth arguing with that st**born old gr**y man..I am sorry..I am damned angry becoz I've lost my right as a consumer ....why wouldn't I stand for my right?..chic ken!!!
I am angry for my foolishness....

I loss RM25.90..real lot that I cd use it instead for a couple of magazines/story books for my kids..or even..over a very delicious couple of KFC dinner plate..hu..hu...

But actually..when i think back..its the principle or attitude or to be exact ,his way of conducting the biz..that had annoyed me..

I abhor the incident!..really!!

The morale is...pls recheck your item..keep the receipt..in case u need to return them...if they are shoes..remember do not splash them with shoe white unless double check they are perfectly ok...

I am poorer today by RM25.90..sorry for me being so emotional...( but I least I think I had managed to get the message across to him...or maybe he just couldn't careless...)

Kasih, kekasih


Slot Alkulliyah di TV3 Jumaat yang lalu mengupas satu topik yang cukup menarik bagiku dan aku pasti untuk sekelian insan di muka bumi ini...

Dimulai dengan pengenalan erti kasih, kekasih dan siapa yang berhak dikasih serta yang paling penting..

Kasih dan cinta pada yang satu..Allah u Rabbi..Ar Rahman ArRahim..Ini ynag paling utama..seharusnya...

Kasih Ibu kepada anak2nya....tidak akan terbalas oleh anak2nya

Kasih anak kepada Ayah Ibunya.........

Cinta pasangan Suami Isteri

Cinta sesama insan dan segenap makhluk di muka bumi ini...

Mengakhiri slot hari itu adalah jawapan dari penceramah kepada beberapa soalan antaranya iaitu:-

"Bagaimana mahu mengekalkan kasih sayang di antara pasangan suami isteri?"

  • Nilailah pasangan pada perkara yang baik-baik sahaja..walaupun ade kekurangan kerana setiap insan begitulah kejadiannya...jangan dicari2 kelemahan...jangan diungkit2 kesilapan serta perbaiki kesilapan dengan teguran yang paling berkhidmah...Ibarat percaya pada kehebatan Allah..hebat juga pasangan anda...sudah pasti cinta bertaut berkekalan hingga ke akhir hayat..
  • Pamirkan pada pasangan anda perkara yang baik2 juga..try to impress..always try...ibarat seperti baru bercinta....harum dan wangi...menarik sentiasa...

"Bolehkah cinta pada suami tapi minat pada lelaki lain???"

  • Minat kerana apakah?..why minat..? boleh minat contohnya..minat kerana bentuk penyampaian ceramahnya...cara percakapan..cara berhujah....tetapi awas!!!! jangan lebih-lebih..nanti pasangannya cemburu....tak baik!!!
Kupasan topik begitu bernas..tapi sayang...satu jam..sesungguhnya tidak memadai....walaubagaimanpun..satu pengisian rohani buat diriku ..yang aktiviti seharian..hanya berkisar pada rumahtangga...anak-anak dan suami...and I long for an evening with old friends..over teh tarik and roti canai perhaps..I do miss just hanging out with friends during those lunch time..exchanging stories..jokes..gossippss???....loneliness kills...

Didalam setiap perjalanan hidup kita..pasti kita akan berjumpa dengan mereka-mereka yang berpengalaman tentang soal hidup..tentang cinta...yes ..love is cinta...cinta monyet, cinta remaja..cinta dewasa...

Langsung mengingatkan aku pada perbualan lewat tahun 2004 bersama arwah Prof Muhammad AlMahdi ( Founder of Khalifah Institute)..iaitu..

Your other half is worth more than you could ever think of...respect each other..love each other.....

Itu juga mengingatkan aku pada bait-bait tulisan warkah arwah ayahandaku apabila membalas warkahku dari perantauan..(tatkala memohon restu bagi sebuah persahabatan) membicarakan tentang perkara-perkara yang perlu difikirkan sebelum memberi kata putus pada bakal suami..sebelum membuat keputusan..

  • Sejauh mana dia menghormati kita
  • Pernahkah dia mencegah ataupun menghalangi Eta dari mendapat sesuatu
  • Bagaimana kerjasama Eta dengan dia dalam sesuatu perkara
  • Apa reaksi Eta terhadap keputusan keputusan yang dia buat
  • Bagaimana pula halnya tentang urusan keewangan
  • Apakah dia seorang yang suka memperendah-rendahkan martabat kaum wanita
  • Bagaimana pengaruh keluarga dia dalam hal ini
  • Bagaimana hak-hak Eta sebagai suri rumah tangga
Diakhir kalam ayah menambah :

Self-sacrifice and forbearance are the passwords to happiness in married life

Indeed self-sacrifice and forbearance are representative of our religion that we profess very assuredly. They head a big family of new virtues, economy, sobriety, and steadiness in social relations and patience and sweetness of temper in private relations. There will be no chance of friction between the husband and wife who practise them, and absence of friction means that the machinery is running smoothly....

Ayahbonda merestui pilihan Eta semoga bahagia sampai ke anak cucu....penghujung warkah yang cukup berharga dan bermakna buat diriku pada sekitar hujung 1990...

Itulah sebagagian kasih daripada ibubapa kepada anaknya....dan aku pasti tiada tandingan...tidak akan terbalas...dan lagu ayah dan ibu dendangan Allahyarham Sudirman Hj Arshat menusuk kalbuku...serta lagu Gerimis semalam dendangan Seila Majid..menggerimiskan hatiku...dalam kerinduan yang tidak akan pernah padam ...selamanya...buat kedua2 arwah ayhbondaku..( I am sorry my hubby..my father was the most beloved man in my life...u don't mind, do u?...) AlFAtihah...

and I love strawberry....


and I love to remember all those people who had crossed my path..who had bring great joy and happiness to my life this so far..
