Harapan Ramadhan

Ku mengharapkan Ramadhan
Kali ini penuh makna
Agar dapat kulalui
Dengan sempurna

Selangkah demi selangkah
Setahun sudah pun berlalu
Masa yang pantas berlalu
Hingga tak terasa ku berada
Di bulan Ramadhan semula

Puasa satu amalan
Sebagaimana yang diperintahNya
Moga dapat ku lenturkan
Nafsu yang selalu membelenggu diri
Tiada henti-henti

Tak ingin ku biarkan Ramadhan berlalu saja
Tuhan pimpinlah daku yang lemah
Mengharungi segalanya dengan sabar
Kita memohon pada Tuhan diberikan kekuatan
Ku merayu pada Tuhan diterima amalan

Selangkah demi selangkah...
Dengan rahmatMu oh Tuhanku...
Ku tempuh jua

Slowmophobia

Working as lecturer has transited me into a slower lane. It may be because of the new geographic location or it may be because of the new working environment. Being a student my whole life was truly a hectic life, especially as the education level ascended. There were deadlines to be adhered, assignments to be submitted, theses to be written, journals to be read and understood, examinations to be excelled and of course, irresistibly, movie premiers to be caught up. So many things to be done, so many things that were running through my head that the last one and half year of my life as a student went by like a foggy dream. I was constantly travelled from home to university to complete everything that was asked of me; I was living on a fast lane.

But as I graduated from the student life and as I was transferred from a fast lane to a slower lane, I am becoming more languid – relaxed. My life begins at nine and more often than not, finishes at three. My life is also lacked of deadlines, lacked of expectation and lacked of drives. Sure enough it is a life that I often wished for when I was running on a fast lane. But when I am on a slower lane, I have found out that the lassitude is – astonishingly – more tiring than the constant adrenaline. I am not used of this perpetual state of languidness.

However, as the time goes by – as I become more and more used to the relaxed life – I suddenly fear of becoming too used of this kind of life. I fear that living on slower lane will actually slow down everything in me that was used to be fast. Be it the way that I think, the way that I move, the way that I read, the way that I write, speak, act, decide, articulate, explain, and understand and so on. It was the irrational fear that I think I have sometimes. Okay, so most of time.

This fear, I think, is the drive behind my compulsive reading and writing of almost everything that I can come across. Since I fear this kind of life will slow down everything that I was, I have this irrational urge to force myself to be faster in this slower lane.

I am afraid of slowing down.

That has got to be a new phobia in medical world.

P/s: I went through the list of phobias. You know, in case my newfound fear is actually recognized and look what I have found instead.

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia (Fear of long words).

That is kind of cruel, isn’t it? ^___^

I'm Proud to be a WOMAN

To celebrate the coming of Mother’s Day, I’ve recently come across an unforgettable piece of poem that praises the beautiful nature of women. Every woman dreams of becoming a mother sometimes in the future and I thought to myself, why not share this poem so that all of us (both men and women) can appreciate the way Allah SWT creates women and what roles women need to play.

Truly, women make world complete in so many ways. Truly, women are special and needed to be treated as such. And for that, I think a complete equality between men and women in terms of rights, haq and Islamic rules (as what being spread by Sister in Islam as a propaganda) will actually strip off women of the privileges and the sense of special that have always surrounded women.

Allah intends men and women to be different. Men have their own privileges and so do women. I think that by appreciating the differences between the genders, we will appreciate even more us being a woman!

Aku Seorang Wanita

Orang kata
Aku
Lemah, mengada-ngada tak sudah
Pemalu, kadang-kadang tak kena waktu
Suka menangis, hati mudah terhiris
Akal singkat, bercakap tak kenal penat
Degil, mudah rasa jengkel
Namun aku
Tetap bersyukur kerana
Aku punya tempat istimewa di sisiNya
Aku mulia kerana
Aku
Seorang anak
Yang baik lagi terpuji akhlak
Rajin belajar, membuang masa pastinya tidak
Aku
Seorang isteri
Kakasih terhebat suami
Cinta suci penambat hati
Menantu yang disayangi
Pandai memasak dan pandai mengambil hati
Aku
Seorang ibu
9 bulan 10 hari mengandung anak-anakku
Azabnya hanya Tuhan yang tahu
Seorang mentua
Yang penyayang dan senyum selalu
Tidak pernah cerewet dengan menantu
Aku
Seorang sahabat
Duka nestapa akulah pengubat
Janji rahsia ku genggam erat
Aku
Tunggak masyarakat
Membina generasi bersemangat
Pencetus wawasan keramat.
