Sincerest Apology

"Selamat Hari Raya
Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin."

a phrase commonly used for Hari Raya Aidilfitri, but I guess to some people it
means nothing but some words. Words that we write in greeting cards. Words that
we write is sms-es. When we utter those very words, do we actually mean to apologize
with sincere intention?

Maaf Zahir dan Batin. Perhaps when it comes to it, we should limit the
word "Batin" to certain people only, as it doesn't apply to
everyone. Hehe. Of course I don't wanna say "Maaf Batin" to guys like
Atip and Zainal. But Nuar, you may wanna say that to Zainal. Not right.

During my 24 years of life, I may have done some things which I'm not proud of.
Stupid things, really. Therefore I would like to use this opportunity to
sincerely apologize to anyone, who may feel offended by my action, ignorance,
stupidity and lack of judgement. I'm truly sorry.

To all, please accept SINCEREST APOLOGY.

From the bottom of my heart, Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan
Batin.

Choose your friends like your books, few but choice. I also realized recently
that we should be extra careful choosing friends. Quality over quantity that
is. It's dissapointing and shocking to know that even some of my Non-Muslim
friends are being a better friend than Muslim ones. They are more concerned and
honest, when it matters the most.


When it matters the most.

" Sesungguhnya berkawan dengan orang-orang yang soleh (orang-orang
baik) dibandingkan dengan orang-orang jahat adalah seperti berkawan dengan
orang yang menjual minyak wangi berbanding dengan tukang besi. Maka
berkawan dengan tukang penjual minyak wangi terkadang dia memakaikan kepadamu
atau kamu mengikutnya atau mencium wanginya. Akan tetapi berkawan dengan tukang besi (peniup
api) mungkin terbakar pakaianmu atau kau merasakan panasnya. "

Hadis Riwayat Muslim

My Raya prayer: ( for you syg )

Ya Allah,    

Kalau dia memang jodohku

Dekatkanlah...

Tapi kalau dia bukan jodohku

Jodohkan lah..

Jika dia tidak berjodoh denganku

Maka jadikanlah kami jodoh..

Kalau dia bukan jodohku..

Biarkan dia tidak berjodoh sama seperti diriku

Kalau dia tak mungkin dijodohkan denganku

Jgn sampai dia dpt jodoh yg lain

Selain aku..

Ya Allah,

Dan saat dia tidak memiliki
jodoh,

Jodohkan lah kami kembali..

Kalau dia jodoh orang lain,

PUTUSKANLAH!!

Jodohkan dengan diriku

Jika dia tetap menjadi jodoh orang lain

Biar orang itu ketemu jodoh dengan yang lain

Dan kemudian

Jodohkan kembali dia dengan ku..

*Amin..

We'll find pleasure having true friends who never backstab you. Who never talk
shit behind your back. Who never fail to give you honest advice about life,
regardless whether it hurts so much. Who stick to
you through anything. Having said that, I wish I can be a great friend as well, as said by Ralph
Waldo Emerson, "The only way to have a friend is to be one." I wish.

I'm going back to N9 one day
before Raya (Monday). If you happen to be there silalah datang beraya di kampung
or di rumah Ampang.
I would also like to express my gratitude over the mental-stimulating
conversations, excellent insights and honest opinions in my previous entry.
Thank you.

I'm on vacation next week. No
computer.. so SMS me. =).. I’m on hiatus..
