I just want to share with you guys a very inspiring song from Zain Bhikha. I lately play this song over and over on my mp4 player.
Forgive Me When I Whine
by: Zain Bhikha
Today, upon a bus I saw a girl with golden hair,
And in my heart I wished that I was just as fair
When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle.
She had one leg and wore a crutch, but as she passed, a smile.
Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have two legs to walk upon and the world is mine.
I stopped to buy some candy; met a boy...

Are You Willing To Do Mistakes?
They always say that mistakes can teach us valuable lesson and I would jokingly answer, "Are you willing to do mistake then?". If it teaches us a great lesson, why is it that nobody is willing to do such? If anyone ask me that question, I would answer yes. I am willing to be wrong. I'd rather try and fail than to do nothing. To be willing to make mistake is to gain one's greatest asset, that is self-trust. I don't want to diminish myself...

On Making New Year's Resolutions
Photo: quizzle.com
In a matter of days we will be saying goodbye to 2012 and say hello to a new year. This is the time to make a list of what we want to do or accomplish next year. It's the time that we like to have a clean slate to start over again.
Every year, we also produce a sadly familiar repertoire of aspirations dealing with bad habits. On the first days of every year, we always mean well, but it's clear that some of us lack firmness...

The Story of a Blind Boy
"It is He Who created for you (the sense of) hearing (ears), sight (eyes), and hearts (understanding). Little thanks you give." [The Qur'an, Surah Al-Mu'minun; 78]
A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more...

I Wish I'm a Phoenix
I'm screaming behind this bars
On this world of selfish desire
Longing for an escape
Free myself, whatever it takes.
But try hard as I might
I always get lost every night
Each passing day I grow weak
No one to hear me as I speak.
So I pray my breath to leave
Take away my life with it
Consume me with fire from hell
Go forth, you have a story to tell.
And leave me alone crying
With burning tears never ending
Making a pool of...

Fairy Tale Story
Photo: katekingtherapy.blogspot.com
I knew you was my `once in a lifetime’. That you are the one who’ll always matter, the one who’ll always be different, the one who’ll always stand best.
You gave me my life back. The music I lost, I began to sing. The poetry and romance, I had lost my faith in and had forgotten, grew within me, all over again. It felt like I was alive for the first time, like everything was brand new, and that...

Firmoo Giveaway For My Comeback
I have been away in blogosphere for about 4 months. I have decided to get away from my so-called virtual life to find myself. Plus, I have been very busy with my work lately that I have no time to get on-line much less to write a post in my blog.
But hey, everything has an end, right? And my hybernation has just ended.
I just hope that my loyal readers are still here. And I have a surprise to all of you.
Whats a better way for a comeback than...
