All That Glitters Is Not Gold..

Exactly..

But only a handful of human souls can comprehend this.

Every Child Is Gifted & Unique..

Never compare my children to others even if you think others are better at it.

You may say it positively that "Child A works as a doctor while Child B works as an engineer or Child C is bright while Child D is good-looking", but all my children will remember is how incapable they are at it.

Praise my children for who they are. Stop this typical culture of comparing, competing & thinking that everything they do is never enough.

Every child is unique. Why compare one against another?

You don't hear them comparing how "fat or thin, selfish or well-mannered, dumb or clever, pretty or ugly" you are with others your age.

For We Are What We Make Of Ourselves..

Everyday, I keep telling myself..

• That today's gonna be better than yesterday.

• To smile even for the littlest gust of wind blown on my face.

• Never dwell on certain things & always hope for the best in everything.

Becoz lifting one's self up has to start from within. One can have a thousand or even million friends out there who can be so kind enough to give words of encouragement & moral support. But if nothing starts from within, one will still feel empty as a whole.

The heart though very fragile, it needs to be strong; though delicate, it must stay resilient.

For we are what we make of ourselves..🌹

Not Everyone Will Like You..

Not everyone's gonna like you nor will they have the heart you have. Neither will they appreciate you & the things you do for them.

You're not for them & they aren't for you. You're not their cup of tea & they aren't yours either.

Never waste your time & heart trying to convince those who doesn't wanna be in your life, for they will never buy what you're selling even if you had to bargain with them. 

It won't be easy but when you've come to accept this, it doesn't seem to affect you anymore even if you have the entire world turning its back on you.

You're not born in this world to please everyone in the first place..

Respect Cannot Be Demanded..

I keep saying this time & again.. I don't care how old you are (related or unrelated), respect cannot be demanded nor can it be given. It has to be earned. 

One has to put themselves with a level of mannerism, trust, honesty & responsibility before others could see a reason to respect them.

You give me respect, I will be glad to return it. This is not self-importance, it's called self-respect. It's a two-way thing; if you want it, you gotta give & earn it.

Don't just keep going around trying to mind other people's life matters when in reality, you're living a life full of shit & flaws yourself.

Dunia & Akhirat..

Harta Dunia..

This.. Lumrah manusia.. Memang ada jenis species macam ni..

Especially species yang jaga orang tua macam nak tak nak, lepas tu bagi macam2 alasan.. Orang tua saket ke, masok hospital ke - setakat "touch n go"..

Kubor orang tua maseh merah, dah tanya mintak share.. Ada orang tua maseh hidop lagi dah tanya pasal harta.

Aku tak hadap ni sume. Yang aku kisah, bab jaga orang tua biar ADIL.

You don't show the keen-ness in taking care of the elders yet you deserve a "fair share" in everything & the respect?

Species macam ni aku tak bole brain..

Reposted from @bawangchannel Pesan kat adik-beradik kita..

Bila dah besar, dah ada kerja, dah ada pendapatan, dah ada duit, cari harta sendiri..beli rumah, beli tanah, beli aset..

Bagi ada harta dgn nama sendiri..

Jgn direbutnya tanah sekangkang kera dikampung tu nnti.. jgn disebabkan harta tak seberapa itu, kita adik beradik bergaduh, bermasam muka.. bertelagah..

Tak guna...

Kita ni sulung ke, kita ni lelaki ke, nanti bahagian kita lebih dari adik beradik yg lain ke, jgn fikir, jgn berharap.. jgn letak target yg kita nak rumah, kita nak tanah, kita nak kebun atau kita nak harta..

Jangan..

Sebab nanti bila tak dpt, kita mula la nk marah, nk bergaduh dan nak menuntut.. walhal ketika "harta" tu ada, bukan kita yg jaga, bukan kita yg usahakan, bukan kita yg berbakti...tup² bila harta tu dh tiada pemiliknya, kita nak sgt² "hak" kita...

Hak apa yg kita nak?

Hak apa yg kita tuntut?

Kita berhak ke?

Usaha sendiri utk kumpul harta sendiri tanpa perlu meletakkan harta pusaka sebagai matlamat kita, cita² kita...yg lebih utama ialah menjaga ibubapa kita, baik sihat mahupun sakit tanpa perlu mengharapkan apa² dari mereka...

Ini tak, kita buat mereka seperti bola..sekejap pass sana, sekejap pass sini..

Kita sebagai anak yg perlu bagi "sesuatu" kpd org tua kita dan bukannya menunggu dan berebut "sesuatu" hasil penat lelah mereka..

Kalaulah kita berebut menjaga org tua kita sebagaimana kita berebut harta pusaka, mesti untung org tua kita kan.. tapi byk yg jadi bodoh dan hilang akal hanya disebabkan sesuatu yg bernama "harta pusaka"..

Time sakit taknak jaga, time dah tiada datang menuntut pula.. 😥
