When Life gives you lemon, throw it to the person who spoils your day

Demi waktu. Tick tock.



Time. These four letters word is very valuable, precious and meaningful indeed. What is the value of it? Priceless. What is the cost of it? Infinity. What is the use of it? Everything. Time is indeed a very important part in our life. Without it, how can we know when is the right time to wake up? When will our class starts? Is it time to perform our prayers? Everytime we want to do anything, we will straight away look at our watch and decide if to go with the plan or not.

Time cannot be reversed, we cannot turn back time. We cannot re-visit the past. We cannot rewind back our mistakes. What we can do is to make the best of the time we have left. No rich man can buy time. We can't go to the shop asking, 'Apek, ada jual itu masa tak? Gua mau bila la.' or we can't go to the market and ask, 'Makcik, masa sekilo berapa ah?' I dare someone to ask that and let me know if you get a high five on your cheek by the end of the question, okay? :)
 
Being a university student, what I have learnt is that there is never enough time in a day! 24 hours seems so short! I have to do so many things within a day, up to the point I think I need another extra 10 hours in a day! Although my routine seems very similar to others, I mean, I wake up, shower, go to class, do my prayers, study, tutorials, bla bla bla. But sometimes, especially when I have assignments to be submitted, I always feel as though I have to rush time! And that is when I learn how valuable time is for me. I can do anything I want in a day, for as long as I complete my priorities, I pretty much feel accomplish :)

Time also does not wait for anyone. When the time comes for us to meet The Almighty, we will have to leave this Earth eventually. There is no such thing as asking for an extend or not being ready to meet Him. The truth is, everyone is afraid of death. But us as a human being have to accept the fact that we will all leave the Earth one day. Our time will come. So, let us do good deeds while we still have time and try to stay away from sin. I'm just a regular person, full of mistakes and flaws. 

So, while we still have time, do not forget to tell those we love how much we love and treasure them in our life. Tell them how important they are to us. And never never ever take them for granted. Because truth is, you never know when will you get to see the again, right?


p/s: A reminder to myself, *Amirah, dari you membazir 10 minit stalk orang kat Facebook, lagi elok kalau you stalk blog che det or akadirjasin. Lagi berguna. Sekian :) *

Till then,
Let's get a new watch people! :P

  1. Hai, there love,

    A good piece. But, Mama said, like my blog, there are some mistakes in yours. For example, it should be ….. Time, a four-letter word. Never mind, just try to be more careful and not to rush. Then again, like you said – and I agree wholeheartedly – time is priceless. So do not spend to much time blogging. As for Mama, you and I can say to her: Mama where’s your blog? Hehe….

    Another poem from one of my favourite poets, Kahlil Gibran. This time it’s on TIME to add to your own thoughts on the timeless subject of time.

    [And an astronomer said, "Master, what of Time?"

    And he answered:

    You would measure time the measureless and the immeasurable.

    You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons.

    Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.

    Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness,

    And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.

    And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space.

    Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless?

    And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless, encompassed within the centre of his being, and moving not form love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds?

    And is not time even as love is, undivided and paceless?

    But if in you thought you must measure time into seasons, let each season encircle all the other seasons,

    And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing.]

    Love you. Take care. No stress-stress ok?

    Abah
