(this post is just a reminder, mainly for me, because i’ve been noticing a lot of emotional instability going around.)

sometimes things happened and we get overly stressed about it. and then, bad thoughts start creeping in, and we start comparing with all the others and asking all the why questions. so i did some reading and realized a couple of things that i want to share here:

Always be patient with every sadness and dejection. because for every beginning there will be an ending and so will that small broken feeling that we feel.

Always be grateful for all the goodness that we’re blessed with. but bear in mind to be thankful kepada Yang Maha Pengasih, takut-takut ia menjadi istidraj.

and perlu jugak kita ingatkan diri ...bersyukur dengan cara yg betul..ialah bersyukur pada Allah..yg komunikasinya hanya antra kita dengan Nya..bukannya menghebohkan pada dunia yg kita SEDANG BERSYUKUR...

tanyala pada diri..adakah kita berterima kasih pada Allah ataupun kita sedang berbangga2 pada dunia 

Allah berfirman: Setiap kali mereka menambah/ membuat maksiat yg baru maka setiap kali itu Aku menambah/ membuat nikmat ke atas mereka”. 

(al-a’raf:182)

it’s true. not all that is given by God means that it’s a good thing. kadang-kadang Allah sembunyikan murka-Nya pada setiap kenikmatan yang diberi.

Maka tatkala mereka melupakan peringatan yang telah diberikan kepada mereka, kami pun membukakan semua pintu-pintu kesenangan untuk mereka; sehingga apabila mereka bergembira dengan apa yang telah diberikan kepada mereka, kami siksa mereka dengan sekonyong-konyong, Maka ketika itu mereka terdiam berputus asa. (al- an’am: 44)

subhanallah.

that is why, just because some things don’t go as planned or it did not happen as how we hoped it would, bukan bermaksud Allah sudah benci… :) because the truth is, maybe that is His way of showing kasih-sayangNya. 

and vice versa.

rasullulah saw said: “when Allah swt intends to finish off a termite, He would give them wings to fly.”

p/s: i think the best remedy if you ever feel down and wish to stop yourself from dwelling on all those bad thoughts is by spending the whole day with beloved ones munching on sugar cookies and trying out the icky-looking princess cake only to realize that it’s actually extremely good.
