Pedulikan

One the biggest mistakes people make when they’re trying to impress someone is that they assume people only pay attention to the important or “big” things they do. But the reality is that the little things are what matter most. It’s the little things we do or don’t do every day that shape us in to who we are. The little things determine how we respond when big things come in to our lives.
Many times, we are our own worst enemy. Happiness is really dependent on perspective. If we think something is a problem, then our thoughts and emotions will be negative. But if we think it’s something we can learn from, then suddenly, it’s not a problem anymore.
Our "Dunia Luaran"(outer world) is a reflection of our inner world. Don’t we know people whose lives are chaotic and stressful? And isn’t that largely because we feel chaotic inside? Ye dok? Yes, it is. We like to think that changing our circumstances will change us. But we have it backwards, we need to change ourselves first before our circumstances will change.
People fear change, that's natural. questions may lead to changes in a system, changes in the way we do things, changes in the way we think, it could even change you - hence people fear questions. personally i think, since we were kids, especially i speak of the malay society, we are trained to fear having questions, we can't question - the " saya "yang menurut perintah' doctrine. and as questions lead to reasoning/ logic, lack of questions will then lead to lack of logic. 

Pedulikan! But if we do compare ourself, compare ourself with people who have it worse than us. Unemployed? Be grateful that we live in a country that gives unemployment compensation, because most people in the world live on less than us. So you don’t look like Aaron Aziz? Well, I bet there are more people who don’t than do. And you are probably way better looking than most people. Focus on that

 When we are stuck in a bad situation, we think that there is no way out. We think nothing will ever change. But guess what? It will! Nothing is permanent except death. But we do need to take some sort of action for things to change. It won’t magically happen all on its own. Pedulikan!
Sekian.

Perempuan - masters of the universe

Bismillah..





Mak pernah told me once about how women are of 1 mind and 9 nafsu, while men are of 1 nafsu and 9 minds. i believe that nafsu here simply means emotion. theoretically then men are only capable of understanding a mere 11.9% of women's emotions while women could only see about 11.9% of men's logic. the rest of the 88% are spent in a vacuum where men and women argue and perhaps settle amicably over sex (although they still do not get each other). i'm pretty sure, when emak said that she meant the whole thing i've just said.
Mak too said, "women are always right". 



Arwah Nenek would always hug me and whispered, "belajar rajin-rajin, bila besar nanti, jadi orang besar-besar!" you see, this has a lot to do with quantum mechanics. size has a lot to do with mass, and mass is gravity. which means the bigger the mass, the bigger the attraction. which is why politicians, with many followers those who are attached to him are referred to as "orang besar-besar". That being said though, i never aspire to be orang besar.



my ustazah when i was 15teen, told me that "Nur" means light and is the guide that binds us. this too has a lot to do with quantum mechanics. Light is actually photon that binds matters. you need photons to bind atoms, atoms form molecules and hence forming objects. without light then, atoms will just be all over the place without a guide.My little sister when she was 16teen,. i recently found out that it meant a motorcycle if she did well in PMR. and she did.You see i believe women keep some of the greatest mysteries in this universe. some which might not be captured if a man kept pretending as if they were giving attention while in actual fact he was just thinking about the shape of the clouds.
