#96 Karakter

"Kau dah banyak berubah."

Salah.
Tidak pernah berubah,
cuma bertukar topeng
yang berlainan cerita setiap satunya
yang aku guna-pakai
di lain-lain masa.

Kau juga ada.
Mereka yang lain juga.
Cumanya,
topeng-topeng kau,
tidak pernah aku beza-bezakan.
Kerana selagi si pemakainya; -- kau,
masih tetap aku suka.

itu bezanya orang yang pandang rupa,

dengan orang yang suka karakternya.

#60 Matahari

Bulan pernah beritahu aku,
ia tidak bercahaya, cuma pinjam cahaya
dari bintang bernama Matahari.

Jadi kini,
Matahari mendapat tempat lagi tinggi,
di hati ini.

kerana;

Matahari bikin aku bahagia,
Hanya dengan senyum lebar,
Dari pagi hingga senja.

Matahari buat aku gembira,
Cuma dengan memancar terang,
Beri aku cahaya.

Kamu buat aku senang,
Cuma dengan
sentiasa ada
susah dan senang.

#34 Chantek

Rungkaikan ikatan riben merah itu.
Biarkan rambut kamu mengurai.
Kamu cantik dengan begitu.
Rambut kamu manja ditiup angin lalu.

Sisipkan selendang kamu dengan rapi.
Sematkan kerongsang di bahu kiri.
Kamu tampak ayu begini.
Angin menyapa tudung kamu, lembut sekali.



Cantik itu kan subjektif ?
Cantik itu berbeza bagi setiap lensa. Ayu itu tidak sama bagi setiap kaca mata. Masing-masing punya citarasa sendiri. Tapi tidak perlulah sampai mengeji. Elok kamu berdian diri, bimbang ada yang terguris hati. Kerana setiap satu kejadian punya hikmah tersendiri.

Buat permata hati sekalian,
usah bimbang, atau gundah-gulana,
kerana di luar sana,
ada mata yang melihat anda
cantik seperti apa adanya.

Allah's creations are the most beautiful thing. 

Every single of it. Each one of them

have its own uniqueness.

Don;t worry, you are beautiful

just the way you are.

Just the way He made you.

#33 Baju Kurung

Mother : You have to learn how to sew your own baju kurung. Until when you expect me to sew for you ?
Daughter : Sampai bila-bila.
Mother : But you have to ! You're turning 21 in a bit. Back in my time, when I'm in primary school, I can already sewed my own baju kurung. Don't you regret when I'm gone one day.

The daughter walked away because she tried to hide her tears. Afraid that her mother will see.




That doesn't means she don't want to learn the skills from her mother, she just can't accept that one day, her mother will left her, or maybe she's the one who will leave, first. That one fine day, where she don't knows when. People gonna die anyway. It just that she can't accept the fact that they're gonna be separated by death. If and only if, she knows or confirm that they will be reunited in Jannah later, maybe she won't cry silently like this. She still hope that she will always be her mother's little daughter. Sampai bila-bila.

because Ibu knows my body, my curve very well.

#14 Everyone Was Born with Talents

Some people are born artists. Some people are born as athletes. Some people are born as scientists.  definitely believe that we can practice…practice, practice, practice…until we have perfected whatever we have been practicing. But it won’t be good if we don’t have a passion for it. And passion is something we are born with. 

Some people spend their whole lives studying and perfecting their stroke techniques, become god-like painters that can capture human emotion with oil on canvas. Others spend their days in the gym, in the training room, and on the field or court, jumping, hurdling, kicking, and tossing at whatever type of ball their favored sport requires. And there are those who are book-worms and spend all their days studying biology and ant life, and the different kind of trees. Studying electricity, chemistry, physics. Some study math.

But before all of this, at the moment of conception (Or maybe even before?) something in the universe lines up just so, and a passion for a certain thing is burned into our DNA. Without this passion, we could never achieve our true potential.

If we were born with a passion for painting, but spent all of our lives studying to be a doctor, our life would be wasted. We could, most definitely, be a great doctor. But we could never be as good a doctor as we could have been a painter. This is our inner voice, this is our soul speaking. This is our passion. And nothing drives our  determination with such vigor and agility as out passion. This is truly the fire of our soul, the light of our existence. Why, then, would we spend all of our short eternity  away from the warmth and the light?

As for me, I love math. I love numbers but not really into accounting subject. Mathematics, Additional Mathematics were always going to be my favorite subjects because it keep me wide awake for the entire three hours of lecture.To me, it has always been my easiest. I have always understood math. It’s always been simple. 1+1=2. And to some degree, every form of math is just that: a problem, and an answer. And it didn't matter how you got to the answer, as long as you followed the rules, and got to it. And there was always only one right answer. I really liked that about math. There was one answer only. No “there is no right or wrong answer” bullshit.

English, on the other hand, was very confusing. Because every question I was asked was an opinion, and it’s very hard for me to give an opinion because I like to be as un-biased as humanly possible, which meant I’d be giving at least two answers, because there are two sides to every story. But I loved English class. I love reading. And, I discovered, I love writing. Sometimes, I found out that English is the best way in expressing myself in some aspects. That's why I like about writing.  I could express everything on such a greater level than ever before by writing it. By keeping my mouth shut, and typing whatever is on my mind comes so damn easy to me. It’s just natural. It flows like a damn river. Words gushing out and spilling into whatever mouth awaits.

Whatever you're doing now, you should have believed in yourself. Do something that you will never get bored, never get tired of. Something that you will never hate and regret in the future. If you believe in your passion and talents, make a living off of it.

Because some people are born as athletes and painters, or maybe as a writer. Remember, you are born with your own talents ! Make used of it. :)

have faith, keep believing.

dreams big,

spread the wings,

and fly above the ground.
