Lucky No '4'

Be an angel to someone else whenever you can, as a way of thanking God for the help your angel has given you.  ~Quoted in The Angels' Little Instruction Bookby Eileen Elias Freeman, 1994


I  have four best friends. They know who they are. We have known each others for 20 over years.
Recently, I was again blessed with four new good friends. I already have four and now God is giving me another four.

From today onwards '4' is my lucky number. I owned it and I plan to keep it that way. Nothing will ever shake me!


I HAVE A STORY TO SHARE WITH ALL OF YOU!


But, I am in the midst of final exam week and have a lot of readings to do which I have yet to start.
But let me tell you this, my next post will be something that touches your heart. It's about friendship, it's  about angels on earth. Wait for it!

Until later.

Love ya.

From A Girlfriend To Another, Regards Rock Chicks

“We're all lost. The best chance we got is to wander this life with the people who matter.” 
― Kristen Ashley


Dear Girlfriend,

I have not been feeling well lately. I woke up this morning feeling lost. I read Qur'an and I prayed. Don't know why I am still feeling edgy, tired and restless. I might need a vacation I guess. Your words last night really touched me so deep that I have never known it existed. I feel like I am missing something in life. I can't even describe what I feel because I do not even understand me. But I do know I feel empty. 

Thank you for sharing with me something beautiful last night babe. Do share and feed me with any happy news so that I can embrace the happiness if only for a day because I just want to take a day at a time for now. 

Regards,
Indy, 8.12 am



Dear Girlfriend,

You are thinking too much. Do take consolation in the fact that everything has been written, girl. I was a better muslim before and I felt so close to God when I was younger. So when I didn't feel the blessing when I prayed and do du'a these couple of years, I wondered what happened, why my mind was just not there and I felt that I have drifted away from Him despite the fact that I'm the kind of person who pray regularly. 

I remember when the stroke guy dumped me, I was sad. I seek God but I didn't feel it despite the sadness. So when the teacher who I dated dumped me, it hit so low I literally collapsed in my living room at my previous house crying loud asking God "why Allah? Where are You Allah? Where are You". I cried hard until evening and that night I called my girlfriend and we went out. I was okay for a while but the pain was so deep and I was depressed for months. God sent me a girlfriend who was there to listen and she kept saying good riddance bad rubbish. I was sad and when there was nothing I could do anymore to ease the pain that was when I learn to ask from God everyday only for happiness and strength to go through that day. 

I never thought that one day I have to ask God everyday to give me some strength so that my sadness doesn't affect those around me especially my parents. Honestly girl, all my accidents and almost got rob cases were the final blow and they made me realise that only Allah can help me, not only to overcome my sadness but also to protect me from danger and those with bad intention. But for that, I have to seek Allah and when I seek Allah when I feel sad, I know that I have someone to turn to. Until now I have long lost hope in life. I have no ambition and all I want is to have at least more money and some ease in life so that I can take my parents for holiday sometime soon. 

You just imagine girl I'm just 31 year old and I'm not looking forward to the future. What does this fact tell about me? And all I could think of is that all the good things in life are for other people but me. But in the midst of these, I am hoping that I can hope. So I learn to search for hope. I ask God for this everyday, girlfriend and I tell Him that I am just a nobody, other people won't turn twice to see me. And as such, in terms of finding my soulmate, if He didn't bring that special someone to me and show the one that I got something good in me then no one will notice me. So I ask Him to help, but I said if there is no one for me in this big world then teach me they way to accept this, and please turn me into someone who accepts me for who I am and the way I look. 

So the same goes about job, friends and life generally. What I'm trying to say is, girl, is that you are not alone, but you have so much good things in you, and you just have to step back for a while to see it from far. You got to give a pat on your  back for all the wonderful things you did for yourself, your family and your friends. You have also to come to term with the past  girl, it has been too long and you have now to tell yourself that he was not all the man you think he was, but maybe half of it. Search for hope, girl and to do that we must seek Allah...and let us do this together!

Regards,
Ally, 12.49pm

Dear Ally,

Your are like an 'Ally' to me and I hope I can be your 'Indy'. Thank you for being you and for always asking how I am doing and for checking up on me all the times. I now realized I am blessed with so many beautiful things in life.

Thank you Allah.

Love ya, girlfriend.

(Note: The conversation was a real one between Ally and Indy, though those were not their real names !)

Hello, Pretty Baby! Remember This..


Dedicating this one for all my MBA babes that I adore so much.
Suhara, Lily, Faizah, Nadhrah, Yun Yun, Lenora, Hanna, Farah, Hawa, Zetty, Acea, Diyana, Izza, Azreen, Sharon & Yoka.

This is how I picture you gals & this one is for you...



Hello, Pretty Baby
How's life treating you
Why are you looking miserable
Why are you not smiling anymore
What is hurting you
What is making you sad

My Pretty Baby
Please understand life lessons
Life is simple
Yet, can be hurtful the most
Life is easy
But we could always lose our ways

Oh, Pretty Baby
Please remember this
Do not push yourself too hard
Do not blame yourself for what go wrong
It is not on your shoulder to make everyone happy
It is not your issues if they do not accept you for being you

Always, Pretty Baby
Always remember that
You love your family & friends
You adore your colleagues and even your boss
You even care for your neighbours &
You cherish new acquaintances
You go the distance to do your very best for all that matter to you
You exhaust yourself
You sacrifice more than you can afford
You bleed yourself dry for them

Now, Pretty Baby
Whats Not To Like About You, Sweet Honey?
Whats Not To Love About You, Beautiful Angel?
From today onwards, do not think less of yourself
Never put yourself in that position again

Remember This, Pretty Baby
You are so special, nothing could ever compare to you!
I'm gonna miss you all babes!
