Marriage



A very touching story about marriage:

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly.

She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane.

When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.

She requested that every day for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Jane about my wife's divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.

My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.

On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.

I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.

Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.

At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push thru with the divorce.-- At least, in the eyes of our son--- I'm a loving husband....

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!

The Incident

there is a certain incident that happened in our class today. today we are supposed to pass up our summary assignment but somehow, Dato' forget about it. at the end of the lesson, he left the class without asking for it. so one of my friend reminded him about the assignment.


guess what happen afterwards? those who did not completed the assignment started to criticize him upon seeing his action in reminding Dato' regarding our assignment. Dato' gave us the assignment two weeks ago. so basically there is no excuse at all if we did not finish it on time.


it did not stop there..at the library, one of them even have the guts to openly criticized him, yet again. what kind of attitude is that? my point is, my friend here are innocent. in fact, he did the right thing! those who criticized him are a bunch of dumb ass. seriously. why the heck they are trying to blame someone else when the fault lies within themselves? go blame yourself! if someone else can finish it on time, why can't you? what they did is really stupid.


if you guys read my blog, you know who-you-are. seeing that kind of attitude made me sick. you guys are pathetic!

FrontierVille

sape yg tak cube lagi, boley la cube main. but don't blame me if you get addicted like i did =p ..kat bawah ni pix of my farm. heheh. decoration ala kadar je, xde mase nak hias cantik2. LOL

FYI, i've completed all the quest. huhu. baru je abiskan quest peanut td! phewww. now am waiting for Zynga to introduce a new quest. wondering when that's gonna happen. hmm

p/s: for beginners, don't be shy to ask for tips from me. i can guide you. XD

MERDEKA!!! MERDEKA!!! MERDEKA!!!

One Step at a Time

salam & good morning world!

i'm suffering from a flue right now. *non-stop sneezing* . it happened since yesterday, but i didn't take any meds, so naturally its getting worse. blimey! i hate taking the flu meds because of the side effect. a big NOOOOO! i rather had the flu rather than facing the side effect! *yes, to that extend!*
nevertheless, everything else seems fine. like
i said in my previous post, the 1st wave is over-end-period. a big relieved there. braving myself for the 2nd wave right after raye. LOL

this week, i got two official offers from the bank. one from Bank Rakyat and the other one from CIMB. but after considering the pros and cons of both offers, i've chosen Bank Rakyat. talking about their allowance, its really little. some of my friends said:

friend A: sikit nye, mcm x berbaloi je.
friend B: sikit la, ko tau kan KFH nye berkali gande lg tinggi.

well my dear friends, all i can say is, i've made my decisions based on long term benefits, not short term. as a wise student, we must plan for our future progress, not short term progress. =p

i also heard that the possibility of Bank Rakyat to offer their practical trainee a place in their organization is quite high. i'm hoping that i'll be one of the few lucky person *insya-Allah*. you just imagine how much bonuses they're giving away to their employees each year. *drooling* haha

just like the saying of one of my favorite quote:

" jodoh pertemuan ,rezeki dan ajal maut Allah yg tentukan"

so as His servant, we must strive our best in all our doings. now, i better start reading the book Dato' told us to read and write the summary. otherwise, something realllyyyyyyyy bad is going to happen. LOL

see ya around!

Uno? Uno Game!

Sepatotnye, skrg ni dah bley blk rumah. hari ni cuti, Nuzul Quran. ikotkan, lepas claz semalam dah bley troz blk. Tp nk wat cmner, ade test hari sabtu ni.iskkkk. Since next tuesday pon cuti & hari isnin pon ade 1 claz je, alang2 la kannn..baik extend je cuti tuh. hahaha


so the plan is, sabtu pagi lepas test troz blk, hari selase/rabu baru blk sini blk. wh0000t. baru bestttt cuti lame2 sikit! hakhak

Alkisahnye, minggu ni memang byk test + assignments + presentation. so memang stress habis la. so the solution, main UNO!!! normally after claz, ble ade gap sikit ktorg akan lepak kat library. org pg library study etc etc..tp ktorg pg sane utk main UNO, tido & yg sewaktu dgnnya. muehehe. since last week lg, sejak zuhri bwk UNO, pantang ade gap sikit mesti main. time ni la nak release tension, gelak2 ape sumer. mase mule2 stat dulu, dlm 5 org je yg main, but now..sampai budak claz lain pon bley terpengaruh utk join sekali. haha

before raye break, secare official nya tinngal 1 test je lg. so agak lega la rase. the 1st wave is almost over. after raye, the 2nd wave is comin'. *gulp* .

nak cite byk2 pon mase x mengizinkan. satu ape pon x study lg utk test esok. ngeeeee. till then, take care!

-out-

Happy Happy Happy

i finally got the offer letter!!! wh00ot wh00oot. *happy mood* ^__^


now, who knows in next couple of days, more offers will come by. haha XD

Refresh Hati

Bila kita memulakan sesuatu...
Kadang-kadang kita lupa letakkan niat
Kadang-kadang kita lupa baca Bismillah
Sebab tu bila ada masalah,
Kita cepat menyerah...

Bila kita berniat...
Kadang-kadang kita lupa letakkan usaha,
Kadang-kadang kita tunggu disergah baru hendak mengolah,
Sebab tu bila kerja tak menjadi,
Kita mula angkat kaki...

Bila kita berusaha...
Kadang-kadang lupa pula hendak berdoa,
Siang malam kerah tenaga dan masa...
Sebab tu bila kerja masih tak sempurna,
Kita mudah putus asa...

Bila kita berniat, berusaha dan berdoa...
Kadang-kadang kita lupa pula untuk bertawakkal pada Yang Esa.
Bertawakal pun pada bicara tapi di hati masih buta.
Sebab tu bila dilanda masalah,
Kita marah tak tentu hala...

Bila kita berniat, berusaha, berdoa dan bertawakal...
Kadang-kadang kita tetap alpa,
Nak sebut Alhamdulillah pun payah,
Berdoa pun sekali sekala,
Bersyukur sekejap cuma..

Sebab tu bila kita berjaya,
Allah datangkan ujian dan musibah...
Supaya kita ingat dan kembali ke jalan redha,
Tetapi kita kecewa sampai mencari jalan mudah..
Membenci diri memusuhi nadi.

Sedangkan...
Kita manusia ciptaan Allah,
Bernafas di udara yang sama,
Bila lemah Allah itu ada,
Bila derita Allah itu bersama,
Senang, susah, sedih, gembira...
Allah takkan lupa pada langkah kita.

Tapi sememangnya lahiriah kita,
Kadang-kadang lebih suka dipuji,
Sebab itu kita jarang memuji Yang Maha Terpuji,
Kadang-kadang lebih suka dicintai,
Sebab itu kita lupa menyintai Yang Maha Menyintai,
Kadang-kadang kita lebih suka menyendiri,
Tapi lupa Allah sedang memerhati...

Sebab itu teruskanlah bermuhasabah pada pencipta,
Kerana dalam firman Allah;

"Bagi tiap-tiap seorang ada malaikat penjaganya silih berganti dari hadapannya dan dari belakangnya, yang mengawas dan menjaganya (dari sesuatu bahaya) dengan perintah Allah. Sesungguhnya Allah tidak mengubah apa yang ada pada sesuatu kaum sehingga mereka mengubah apa yang ada pada diri mereka sendiri. Dan apabila Allah menghendaki untuk menimpakan kepada sesuatu kaum bala bencana (disebabkan kesalahan mereka sendiri), maka tiada sesiapapun yang dapat menolak atau menahan apa yang ditetapkanNya itu, dan tidak ada sesiapapun yang dapat menolong dan melindungi mereka selain daripadaNya. (Ar-Ra'd:11)"

Kerana itu..
Pada masalah harus bersabar dan redha
Pada ujian harus tabah dan teguh
Pada kegagalan harus usaha, doa dan tawakkal
Pada kejayaan harus usaha, doa dan tawakkal..

Sama tetapi tidak serupa,
Kerana kejayaan di dunia bukan pengukur kejayaan di sana
Kekayaan harta di dunia bukan jaminan kebahagiaan di sana
Kesusahan dan penderitaan di dunia belum tentu bersambung di sana
Kealpaan kita di dunia pasti menjadi kesakitan kita di sana...

Di sana itulah yang perlu kita kejar,
Agar dunia mengikuti dengan redha...

Di sana,
Akhirat yang pasti...
Syurga yang terindah,
Atau
Neraka yang menyala!

Hectic Week

what a hectic week!!

nevertheless, i am done with two tests and one major presentation. verdict? hmmmm. regarding the tests, all i can say is *i've tried my best!!*. the questions are tough. no doubt bout' that.

i was quite nervous before the presentation. to make things worse, two of our group members are M.I.A. *time wat keje nak xnak, pastu present x dtg! elok la sgt tuh!!* . i had to present regarding the calculations of the warrants, using a lot illustrations, i somehow managed to make the audiences understand what the heck i am babbling in front. LOL. even the lecturer did not ask much questions about it. *lega2*

due to our two M.I.A members, i had no choice but to also present their slide, *differences between Islamic and conventional call warrant *..spontaneous. T__T! just by using logic + the general knowledge that i possessed. alhamdulillah, it went well.
my group presentation ended with a loud applause from the floor + "very good" remarks from the lecturer. wh00t whoot!

now, comin' up is two more tests and a presentation.

going to bed now, tomorrow am going for shopping. raye kan dah nak dekat. haha XD

Food for Thought

salam & morning peeps!

lately i'm having difficulty to focus in the class. why? the reason is quite simple, because i'm freaking sleepy. LOL. lack of sleep nowadays. its the main culprit! before this, i used to sit at the front (normally opposite the lecturer. haha), but now, i have to sit at the middle or at the back, so that i can get some rest *you know what i mean XD*. quite stressful because i was like " huh? what? i don't recall what was being said by the lecturer". now that's not good! luckily, i'm not the type of person who reallied a lot on the lecturer's talks to get my knowledge. yeah, lucky me. books are still the best way to enhance my knowledge.

yesterday, i have a class with Mr.Nizam. he's a cool lecturer. simple, superb explanation, funny etc..i don't feel sleepy at all in his class. haha. in fact, i loved going to his class. after he's done with his teachings yesterday, he showed us some hadith and told us some story. i can't recall the full version of it, but more or less it sounded like this:

1. in this world, no matter how much we loved our parents, one day they're going to leave us.

2. if we loved our child so much, one day he/she will also leave us.

3. no matter how big our house is/how much money we possessed, at the end of the day, its going to be the same with everyone else when we die. *go figure*.

4. this world is only a testing ground for us, its temporary.

5. the world is coming to an end, nowadays doing the right things is considered wrong and vice versa. *go figure*, look at your surroundings, and you'll get what i mean.

now, everything he told us yesterday was right. he even gave us a lot of examples. i have to go now but before i go, please read this and think =)

a) " mujahadah itu pahit, kerana syurga itu manis. Nafsu itu tampak indah, sedangkan neraka itu tidak terperi azabnya"

b) "tinggal dunia, tinggal segala. Hanya amalan jadi teman bicara"

Alert!!!

teroverslept pulak tadi T__T..now i only have 6 hours before the test starts & i haven't cover a single chapter, nil, zero, nothin'! 5 chaps in 6 hours? you gotta say "i'm lovin' it!!!"


initializing, STUDY MODE

-out-

A Quickie

just got a call from the BANK this morning. *excited* haha. well, i'm still not sure whether i got it or not, but they asked me to fax my IC as well as the confirmation later from UiTM. gonna settle this matter with them tomorrow ASAP. i would say as for now, the chance is 50-50.


enough with the BANK, moving on to the test today. IFS, well the first question is pretty easy, i think i can nail it =p. but the second one, OMG! *blurrr*. yadaaa yadaaaa, i messed up pretty badly on the second one. seriously! *sad*

well, after the class, i went down to the parking lot feeling a bit relieved that one test is over & the presentation is postponed to nextweek!! thank you SIR!!!! ^__^ . but once i arrived at my bike, guess what, *kertas biru tuh dah terselit kat motor ku* . tgk pon dah tau ape mende. terus hilang mood hepi.

the thing is, there are actually two parking lots for bikes at my faculty, but the one located exactly opposite the faculty is being renovated. so that left us, the students with only one parking lot, located behind the faculty. just imagine, even with two parking lots, it is still not enough to accommodate all the bikes, inikan pulak ade satu je!!! so we have no choice but to park our bikes behind the law faculty (restricted area).

what the heck the so called "pak guards" are thinking??! suke2 hati je saman, dah tau parking x cukup pon nak saman student. ngekkkks. bulan2 puase ni, tolong la bertimbang rase sikit. ni takkkk!!

i'm outta here! bye peeps!

let us start with the new semester..hmm..6 subjects, 24 credit hours, need to settle the practical application, tests and quizzes are non-stop, tons of assignments, classes are pack like sardine, crazy timetables..what else..ohhh and this semester is bound to be my LAST SEMESTER. *finally*. if everything goes well, come November i'll be entering the real world. ohhhh yesssssssss. even though its only practical, but hey, its the real deal.

Moving on to *PREDATORS*, this one sux big time! 1 hour ++ talking, less than 30 minutes action. you'll be falling asleep before you even arrive at those action scene. LOL. Enough with the movies.

Being Me is the greatest challenge
to keep on moving when everything messed up
to keep on going when my vision turns upside down
to keep calm when my anger explodes
to keep smiling when all I have is sadness
to enjoy the real happiness that came only for a while

but only this way
these lessons had taught Me how to live

these challenges that made me stronger inside out
these stories that gave me strength to my weaknesses
so I thank YOU GOD
for each fate that u wrote for my Life
is nothing better but THE BEST!
