A worth sharing analogy from book ‘Life is an Open Secret’ by Sis. Zabrina


I borrow this book from my friend, K.Izzaty. Thanks k.zaty! sgt bermanfaat utk saya =) Hence, I want to share with u guys 1 analogy that I get from this book which MAYBE can make you think and reflect.




scene 1 :
I walk down the street, and there’s a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in it. It takes forever to get out. It is not my fault. (because I don’t know and I don’t realise the hole is there.

scene 2:
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole AGAIN! It still takes a long time to get out. It is my fault because I already know the hole is there.

scene 3:
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole AGAIN for the 3rd time! It’s fine for me, I know it is definitely my fault. I can get out from it immediately.


scene 4:
I walk down the street and see the deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it. This time, I don’t fall in it.

scene 5:
I walk down a DIFFERENT street. No more hole!!

Cute right this analogy? It is beautifully written, very simple and direct. So, what you get from this story? Same like Sis. Zabrina, I think this analogy made me think the fact in life that we can change. 

As Allah says in the Holy Quran, “Allah will never change a condition of the people until they change it by themselves their own condition, and Allah is All Hearing and Knowing” (Al-Anfal: 53).

You and me can change our behaviours with our own effort and actions. Allah will not change it for you. You yourself have the responsibility to change and to become what you want to be. Allah only gives you aqal, so that you can think and choose. So, CHOOSE WISELY! à Heaven or Hell???


To myself,
Change! or else I will never change!
“Turn towards Allah, O believers, every one of you, so that you may be SUCCESSFULL” (An-Nur: 31)

So Again, dear myself, Change! Turn towards Him and be successful.

Blog kenangan dapat buka semula! Alhamdulillah!

 Alhamdulillah hari ini, 6 OKTOBER 2023. Last sy update blog ni, tahun 2016 . Dah 7 tahun saya xdapat bukak blog ni...! Sebab template dia dah lama...google kata xboleh bukak.. tapi tiba2 dgn izin Allah boleh buka semula...! Subhanallah Alhamdulillah syukur. 😢 Dapat tengok balik post2 lama... post2 sebelum kawin, masa kawin dan lepas adanya Zahra Wajiha.  Setelah 7 tahun, saya masih diberikan nafas, umur saya telah bertambah lg 7 tahun, lebih matang, harapnya lebih dekat saya dengan Tuhan.  Dan dalam masa 7 tahun ni, anak saya pun dah bertambah lagi 2 org. 2 orang lelaki yang soleh insyaAllah... Muhammad Husnayn Haadi 5 tahun dan Muhammad Ilman Subhani 2 tahun. Syukur Ya Allah..  Saya dapat jalani kehidupan dengan seadanya... bekerja dari rumah, hilang segala keserabutan kerja mengikut waktu pejabat, dapat lebih masa berkualiti bersama keluarga. Alhamdulillah dapat juga menjalankan perniagaan yang saya minati selama ini... Tahun ini, tahun 2023 adalah tahun saya benar2 keluar dari pem

self reflection lagiiiilah.....

More time for self reflection...  Zahra ngn baba tgh tidur jd lehla smbg update blog ;) cani rupenye husband n wife kalau bekerja kan.. Blk keje 2-2 pengsan. Tmbh pulak skrng ni ulang alik nilai - senawang. Sejam stengah pergi.. Sejam stengah balik.. Penatnye dok dlm kete aduyai. Tp nasibaik kerja sekali.. Xdelah kena drive sendiri.. Al hamdulillah :)  Syukur pd Allah atas nikmat pasangan dan anak yg cukup membahagiakan. Betullah org kata.. Bahagia tu dtg dri diri sndiri bukan dari org lain. Dan sntiasa bersyukur apa yg ada tu adalah kunci utama kebahagiaan. Dulu masa mula2 kawin.. Baru nak kenal.. Selalu gkla merajuk.. Susah gak kan tiba2 kawin ngn laki yg xbrape nk kenal.. Pastu perangai e lain pulak dr pmpuan.. Kdg2 tu rs cam eh! Tak peka lgsg perasaan pmpuan! Tp tu lah pntgnya komunikasi kan. Apa2pun kena bgtau..sebab lelaki ni kalau xbgtau..mmg die takkan tau. Adoi. Haha. Nasibaik lepas bgtau ade improvement.. Kalau tak..mmg malas dhla nk bgtau. Tp Adela gk something
