Little Things

Garden of Malaya – I suppose this would be my last writing in GoM (Garden of Malaya). It was hard for me for the past one month, but alhamdulillah after two weeks of ‘kerja amal’, things (and emotion) are getting better. Looking at the new bright side of life, helps me a lot to re-adjust the fact I am no longer belong to UM.  This fact indeed, has this bleak sadness about it and I just can’t figure it out. I’m sad, for I had just to leave this earlier.

Suddenly I remember this entry which I posted two years ago.
If you are brave to say “goodbye”, life will reward you with a new “hello”.

And the verse from Baqarah:216
“But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But God knoweth, and ye know not. ” (Yusuf Ali)

Does it sound ‘enough’ to you? It is for me, at least. I do believe there must be something more to this happening. I believe in my taqdeer, our taqdeers. I hold onto my faith, knowing everything will turn great in future. I am convinced, inshaallah, ten years from now,  when I started to look back – this was the best thing ever happened to me.

Where else the best place for me other than being next to my other half? We were living in incompleteness all these while, and it would be my honour to put everything back together in it’s place. My Husband has played a major role in these ten (10) months. He got my back eversince we are married, being patient in our long distance marriage, keeps me uplifted during my gloomy times, and many more.

Should I say this time is the best for me to start practicing solehah to him, and get some sound of muslim personality :- strong religious beliefs and practice, intelligence, and good behaviour. May Allah bestow His Mercy and Guidance on me, and to all the wives out there.

Perhaps more than anything else, these three (3) years have taught me values of life – through my immediate professor, cluster deans, research officers, subordinate staffs, librarians, cleaners as well. A week ago, I had written a few of thank you notes but unfortunately they appeared only in mind, and got faded away by times. No one to blame, they just came, and went.

Here I am, strong-willed to get on a new track.
