Kebahagiaan

Kebahagiaan itu tidak terdapat dalam garis keturunan, dalam harta benda dan emas berlian. Tetapi kebahagiaan itu terdapat dalam agama, ilmu, sopan santun dan destinasi yang kesampaian.- Dr. 'Aidh Abdullah Al-Qarni
- dari Nurul Hamzah's YM

Berdoa...

Masing2 mencari kepenuhan untuk mengisi kekosongan. Masing2 mencari kebisingan untuk menghilangkan kesunyian. Masing2 mencari ketenangan untuk mententeramkan hati yang kegundahan. Semua itu sudah menjadi lumrah bagi setiap insan bernama manusia. Berdoalah dalam ketenangan agar dapat mengubati dan mengisi kekosongan hati yang sunyi dan bergelora. Sentiasa ingat dan memohon kepada Yang Maha Esa agar diperkenankan segala doa tentang kebaikan, doa tentang keinsafan, doa tentang kejayaan.

Miracles...

"Sometimes miracle happen when we least expected"
- from the movie "All I want for Christmas"

Love. complete

"Love's not about the sparks...It's about you're not feel complete until you're with the person you love.. "
- from the movie 'All I want for Christmas'

Life.....

I could not, at any age, be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived. Curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life
-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

Courage

Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow.
-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Dorothy Thompson

Happy..happiness

There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Carl Jung

Time...

Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.
-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Patrick Stewart, from the film "Star Trek: Generations"

Brother David Steindl-Rast

Gratefulness is the key to a happy life that we hold in our hands, because if we are not grateful, then no matter how much we have we will not be happy -- because we will always want to have something else or something more.
-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Brother David Steindl-Rast

Three passions...

Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.

Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.

this has been my life; i found it worth living..

-from Seha (Nur Saleha Razali) on 17th Dec; quotes by Bertrand Russell

Believe in yourself

If you believe in miracles and dreams that all come true…
You will find as if by magic they will unfold in front of you..
No matter how dark the burden nor how heavy the load you hold..
Those dreams are waiting for you..
All shimmering like gold..
Just believe within yourself..and keep focused every day
And never for a moment, allow them to slip away!
Then simply try to recognize ..the strength you have within…

God bless...

May trouble, worries and problem never linger, may they only make you stronger and wiser..And may you rise each day with sunlight in your heart and success in your path. God bless.

Prayer..The lady...

Dear God: The lady reading this is beautiful, classy and strong, and I love her. Help her live her life to the fullest. Please promote her and cause her to excel above her expectations. Help her shine in the darkest places where it is impossible to love. Protect her at all times, lift her up when she needs you the most, and let her know when she walks with you, she will always be safe.

Someone to love...someone to make us complete..."The Wonder Years"

“ All our young lives we search for someone to love, someone to make us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope, all the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, someone perfect is searching for us..”
- From The Wonder Years -

One perfect person for everybody..."Forces of Nature"

“ I always thought that there was this one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know and when you found that person the rest of the world kind of magically faded away, and you know, the two of you would just be inside this kind of protective bubble, but there is no bubble, I mean if there is you have to make it, I just think life is more than a series of moments, you know, we can make choices, and we can choose to protect the people we love, and that’s what makes us who we are and those are the real memories”
- From the movie Forces of Nature -

That moment.."Never Been Kissed"

“ You know, that moment when you kiss someone and everything around you becomes hazy. And the only thing in focus is you and that person. And you realize that person is the only person that you’re supposed to kiss for the rest of your life. And for one moment you get this gift. And you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that it will go away all at the same time..”
- from the movie Never Been Kissed -

I guarantee...."Runaway Bride"

“ Look, I guarantee there’ll be though times. I guarantee that at some time, one or both of us is gonna want to get out of this thing. But I also guarantee that if I don’t ask you to be mine, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life, because I know, in my heart, you’re the only one for me…..”

The sorrow of life

The sorrow of life will teach us… to accept many new beginnings…
To smile…even though it hurts…
To reach out.. even if there’s no one there…
To aim high.. and never say die..
Cause there’s always sun at the end of the night….

In times of sorrow

In times of sorrow I will listen to you, hold you, be there for you and rock you, and take your grief and make it our own. When you cry, I cry.. and when you hurt, I hurt. And together we will try to hold back the floods of tears and despair and make it through the potholed streets of life…

Hargai apabila berdua.....

Hargai apabila berdua, Sayangi apabila bersama, Maafkan apabila terluka, Rindui apabila jauh di sana, Fahami apabila berprasangka, Ingati saban ketika..kerana Allah kasih tercipta...

Never wait..

"Never wait for such moments to show your affection. Have you told your loved ones, your friends how much they mean to you? If you are not the "talking" type (like me), show him or her how much they mean to you...today..now"
- Foo Hee Boon in Facing Cancer, page 36.

"There is no pain worse than not achieving a dream when it is your fault. If God did not want you to have it, that is one thing. But if you do not get what you desire because you are lazy, there is no pain worse than that"
- Will Smith in “Will Power – One driven guy” – From Readers Digest Jan 2007.
