Rain drop keeps falling on my head. It falls everyday telling me to write something or whatever I can write about. Well, I have decided to see the world in a more old-fashioned way and touch on our common, humble, unique, and heroic sensitivities that define the sorrow and happiness of our existence.

a perfect stranger..
that is the title of the movie at ASTRO...Thinking about it, am I a perfect stranger to myself? Searching, looking, and pondering at myself for so long, and yet I am still a perfect stranger to myself what more to others.. It is no more a physical world, all at the tips of the mind now. And mind knows not what is young and what is old or rather who is old and who is young. Everybody can be anybody and everywhere. Just keep on searching...and it is a world of mind and all the illusions of one kind or another. They speak love and they make love but are they really in love? Haha. A perfect world and a perfect stranger. It is all in everybody. Each and everyone of us has something to contribute...it is our world and everybody owns a perfect piece of something and not everything. Thus we are no friends in any way. We are just a perfect stranger to one another. And I am a perfect me, a perfect stranger in my own perfect ways...

Another day..
another evening, another night, another episode of existence and living. I am about to write something and what fear me most is what I am going to write about. It is just another day and I am not dreaming. Another day moving towards tomorrow. Tomorrow is another day with another life episode. A cry can be a smile. A smile can be a cry. A dollar can be a million. Anything can happen. You name it. What would be tomorrow like? For you and for me? Or is just a day like any other day? Strange things do happen but the occurrences are rare and not that many. As of now, I am sucked into a galaxy of a million stars. And wish tomorrow is not like any other day. It is going to be a day with one million smiles and one million ringgit...haha
Bangun dari mimpi...
Keseorangan. Tiada siapa di sekeliling. Mereka hanya menyembah diri mereka sendiri. Segala-galanya berkisar di sekeliling diri sendiri sahaja. Adakah itu lojik alam yang mana kita akan terus hidup walaupun tanpa bantuan dari orang lain? Who listens to you? They only listen with the intention of hearing them more. If ever they come to you they come with the intention of helping them more. If ever they need something they just buy. Adakah mereka ambil kisah siapa yang menjual kepada mereka? Mereka hanya kisah kalau sekiranya barang yang mereka beli itu tidak menepati gaya hidup mereka. Hidup mesti bergaya. Umumnya manusia jarang sekali berkorban untuk orang lain. Nampaknya kesedaran berkorban hanya dikejutkan oleh Hari Raya Korban sahaja. Ianya tidak merupakan amalan fikir dan amalan buat. Berkorban adalah soal kekuatan. Ramai yang bergerak hanya di sekitar alam kelemahan. Kuat tetapi takut hendak berkuat. Lantas tidak pernah kenal pun erti kekuatan. Justeru ramai yang sedang dan masih lagi tidur. Sudah sampai masanya mereka mesti bangun. Bangun dari mimpi.

mimpi..
Setiap orang bermimpi. Kita tidak mudah ingat apa yang kita mimpikan. kalau hendak ingat apa yang kita mimpikan pagi pagi lagi kena catat apa yang terjadi di dalam mimpi tersebut. Dan bercakap benarlah dengan apa yang diingati berserta dengan perasaannya sekali.
Semalam aku bermimpi berjumpa dengan pelajar pelajar perempuan yang menanyakan megapa menelipon mereka. Saya kata saya tidak menelipon mereka.Mungkin nombor mereka tergeser dan menyebabkan panggilan tersebut. Dan dari pancaran air muka, mereka nampaknya gembira dengan kesilapan tersebut dan mengharapkan aku benar benar membuat panggilan kepada mereka. Ada jugak aku berjumpa dengan seorang pelajar perempuan di bilik kuliah. Tetapi susana pertemuan tidak di IPTA tapi lebih menggambarkan suasana di sekolah menengah aku dahulu. Di saat aku menulis ini aku tidak tahu mengapa dia mesti aku jumpai dan di sekolah lama pulak.
Juga ternampak ratusan kereta berbagai jenama yang mana keadaan parkingnya sungguh teratur, padat, dan menghalang. Tidak mungkin satu satu kereta yang mana parkingnya di sebelah dalam dapat keluar. Mereka perlu berkerjasama pagi pagi lagi supaya semua kereta tersebut dapat dikeluarkan dari parking yang padat, teratur tapi menghalang itu.
Itulah mimpi malam tadi yang dapat aku ingat. Mesejnya apa? Boleh dirumuskan dari perasaan dan benda yang tercetus dari mimpi tersebut. Apa dia? Adakah mimpi itu merupakan satu `body language' yang mencerminkan siapa aku sebenarnya? Adakah aku seorang yang disukai? Adakah aku seorang yang berdisiplin? Adakah aku sombong? Adakah aku seorang yang tidak suka kepada suasana kerumitan? Whatever it is all a dream.

Fikrah dan Fitrah
Fikrah itu fikir, fikir untuk semua orang. Fitrah itu menyerah, menyerah kepada nafsu sendiri. Kedua dua perkara itu dah menjadi berlawanan pula. Tidak. Kita bermula dengan fitrah. Tapi proses perbuatan, keputusan dan dimensi kehidupan yang lain adalah didasarkan kepada usaha fikrah. Kalau tidak manusia tidak dapat hidup beramai dengan amannya. Tanpa fikir dan belajar dua insan akan melakukan persetubuhan maka keluarlah anak ke dunia ini. Melakukan persetubuhan adalah fitrah. Kita tidak dapat lari dan terpaksa menyerah kepada nafsu. Tapi perkahwinan merupakan dimensi fikrah. Membesarkan anak tersebut dengan pendidikan yang baik dan menjadi dia seorang manusia yang boleh menolong orang lain pula adalah persoalan fikrah. Justeru kalau kita asyik dengan fitrah semata mata tak jadi jugak. Kita kena belajar supaya pendidikan yang akan diberi kepada anak merupakan pengetahuan yang telah terbukti jayanya.
Dalam pemasaran pula, fitrah itu adalah `needs' dan fikrah itu adalah `wants.' Dengan mengenal sistem ecologi sesuatu tempat, maka terkeluarlah barang-barang dan perkhidmatan yang bersesuaian dengan penduduk setempat. Jadi betullah kata orang orang tua, ikut hati mati, ikut rasa binasa, dan ikut nafsu lesu. Fitrah dengan dibendung oleh fikrah maka terselamat umat dari malapetaka yang menimpa.
Nabi Ibrahim berkorban kerana Allah yang Maha Besar lagi Mengetahui. Fitrah manusia tidak akan menyembelih anak tetapi dengan fikrah maka Nabi Ibrahim menurut Perintah Allah Subahanawataala. Kerana apa? Kerana nilai berkorban untuk orang lain adalah nilai yang dapat membahagiakan ummah keseluruhannya. Fkirah memerlukan disiplin yang amat tinggi. Dan hasilnya membahagiakan semua.
Selamat Menyambut Hari Raya AidilAdha.

How serious are you...
Serious as in doing something...should we or should we not be that serious lest the fun is gone. Or must there be no fun at all or it is all fun? Tangible versus intangible. We cannot see the degree of seriousness on what we are doing. We sometimes make a blunder of the things that we do and the unfortunate happens. People get sick just by being so serious in their job. Politicians, they talk so much and in the end they are the one who suffers. To others, they are so serious in the relationship and when one of them dies, the partner just cannot being perfect anymore and life after that is hell. So how serious are you with what you say or don't say? Should we just let mistakes go by without really thinking of correcting it? I don't know. If I am not serious about it then why should I care? Do you?

We still have distance..Kita masih lagi berjauhan..
Adakah itu fitrah jika kita mengingini sesuatu itu tidak berjauhan? Atau kita mesti mempunyai sesuatu fikrah untuk berdekatan? Fitrah dalaman sentiasa menanya dan fikrahnya kita sentiasa beroleh jawapan. Lantas hanya dengan fikrah satu hari nanti kita akan dapat melenyapkan halangan halangan dan tersatulah seluruh kelompok manusia diseluruh dunia. Selagi fikrah kita tidak di baja subur, masih dibiarkan merangkak di bawah, dunia akan terus menyaksikan kepentingan fitrah diri menguasai kehidupan. Antaranya fitrah manusia suka melayani emosi bunuh membunuh lantas undang undang rimba dikekalkan. Mereka ada PBB, hakikatnya PBB juga menghalalkan bunuh membunuh antara satu sama lain. Fitrah berhibur kehingga pagi telah menjadi amalan dan dibudayakan. Fikrah menganggapnya sebagai satu kebodohan dan kesombongan manusia kerana ianya merosakkan. Fikrah manusia sepatutnya mengharamkan perang, tetapi fitrah diri pula menghalalkan bukan sahaja perang tetapi perkara perkara yang tidak diterima oleh akal tetapi diterima juga kerana fitrah nafsu dan keinginan rasa yang mengharamkan sebarang bentuk kawalan. Dan ada yang memberi alasan kerana ia mengalakkan aktiviti ekonomi. Lantas saya akan menanya, adakah penulisan saya ini hasilan dari fikrah atau fitrah?

Of age and wisdom..
Some stupid things we did but don't realised it sooner can make life miserable. Those at a younger age seems not to be holistic in their opinions and viewpoints. What's worst their decisions and actions would make our beloved country lag behind in everything. Being holistic meaning looking after things from insensitivity to creativity to infinity. But to those at the younger age bracket, their ego are a sad phenomenal for the sufferings caused are sure to be felt by the whole community and society.By chance or happen to be there are a common social approach and remark when doing things. As a result what they have been doing and producing won't last for long because `the products they produce have no taker except among those with only of their youthful imagination.' Their planning has no thrust and not forceful enough that can touch millions of imagination regardless of the age, wisdom, maturity, and insensitivity. But that is the reality. Or does it only exists in my fantasy? By the way, how old are you?

Unezee..
Just would like to say nothing. Staring at the cloudy sky. It rains everyday and everywhere. Feel uneasy. Does not feel like doing anything today. So many things that just do not goes well with me anymore. I have to be brave in facing things to come. It is not the individuals or people that I am against. I just don't know. Individuals come and go. But not the organisation. It must remain forever strong and heartless and cruel if that is the way it should be. Survival of the fittest, so to speak my free mind. As for me, the stance should be cruel and at par with the spirit of the organization you work with. If all the indications, actions, and reactions, are void of good heart and love, so must be you, as cruel as you can be and be combatant in order to safeguard your well being physical and mental. Feel unezee? Not anymore.

Opportunities abundance....
The man-made system has never been kind to us. Opportunities abundance. But the poor is getting poorer. And the richer is getting richer. Opportunities are abundance and are enough for everybody. Why the inequitable distribution? We are the victim of our own economic theories. So to speak my free mind. We are not created to bow to economic theories. It is the theories in everybody and our existence that can made the theories in economics irrelevance. But we succumb to the idea that we can do nothing if the economic situation does not permit. What nonsense. In us are the strength of 10 elephants in terms of physical. In us too are the strength that can penetrate the whole universe in terms of brain and mental strength. But perception has been accepted for a fact and lots more of things in this world that seem to be in the hands of the few. And they are the ones who make things difficult. In the name of politics and lots more label being given just stopping us from being nearer to opportunities which are abundance. Then, what is stopping you?

Elusive word of happiness
Happiness is a word that can be regarded as very hollow, elusive, and in certain situation, mystical. Look at this statement on happiness: in anticipation of love, happiness, and death. To the pharaohs, happiness might take the form of a pyramid. Can we conclude that the shape of pyramid is happiness? The pyramid is the symbol of happiness to the population of Egypt at that time, and it contributes to their happiness despite the hardship they have to face in constructing it. In the same breadth, have you ever wonder what does happiness mean to our Dr Mahathir Mohammad? Is it in the buildings or the people?
Today it is all work and reward. The more money you have, the happier you would become. Well, not so. Theories after theories has been developed and written on why people go to work. Hertzberg, McClleland, and Maslow were obsessed with the theories and their work has become references in all management courses. Money is a basic requirement and everyone can have it by just doing something for somebody.
Happiness is a relative word to the wage earner. Why not? Knowing his skills and qualification , $500 can trigger happiness of a kind compare to another individual with an expensive taste of everything. Stare at a friend's face and you would find all the three elements in love, happiness, and death. Everybody and everyday, they are always in anticipation of love, happiness, and death. As for me happiness should be seen as being contented with what you have worked for and at the same time hoping and working for the betterment of tomorrow. Again it is elusive, hollow, mystical, and religious. And as for the benchmark I have set, I am nowhere near it. What about you?

here comes the new superpower - the internet
Little did we know about power in the true sense of the word. But we do know about the power of writing. Newspaper is the traditional medium to wield power of leaders among followers of certain parties. John F. Kennedy makes another medium more powerful than radio and newspapers. It is the TV. Then comes another man who makes another medium a powerful tool to disseminate information and at the same time persuading. He is none other than Barrack Obama, the first black President of USA. He uses the cyberspace and the internet to influence. And now our prime minister, Najib is following his footsteps with his Facebook. And today I am asking myself about myself. I am a non partisan type of person and I hate hatred that can cause unnecessary divisions in the society especially those who are closed to your very existence. What should I do in order to disseminate information that can cause a lasting peace in everything? The internet - the new superpower that is super, fast, quick, and timeless.

Mengugurkan tulang-tulang krangka lepas..
Tidak bisa lagi dibelenggu dengan peraturan setempat yang membelit diri. Kena membiasakan baik mental mahupun fizikal supaya diri bebas dari segala bentuk kebelengguan yang penuh dengan kepuraan. Tidak ada lagi ikatan kepada sesiapa yang mana tujuannya tiada lain melainkan mengikat kemas kepada masa, semalam, silam, lampau, dan yang lepas. Tidak perlu lagi menyambut senyuman yang merupakan ikatan kepada kerja yang hanya tujuannya mengampu dan melegakan diri orang lain sahaja. Perlu mencari krangka kehidupan mental yang baru bebas dari kebelengguan kehidupan yang meminta dan penuh berharap. Satu persatu tulang krangka lama akan diganti dengan yang baru. Dan sudah pasti arahnya merupakan jalan yang baru dan lebih membahagiakan.

A taste of intelligence...
Have I ever tasted it? And what are the characteristics of intelligence? It cannot be defined. It is indefinite. It is hollow. It is neither been very bright and it has never been very dull. It makes no sound but it moves. It is there and the moment you are in need of it, it is gone. Therefore everything constitutes an intelligence.It includes people, individuals, and things. But with an exception. It is all love and no hate. It is all smile and no cry. Only a shed of tears. And it is all happiness. Immortality. It is stateless. It is heavenly.

Color Blind..
The colour within..is reflected by the choice of colours almost of everything from minute one in the morning to the last minute before going to bed. Haha. Colours can be extremely melancholy in some cases and can become very innocently strange in certain choices. Can be very brave and can be very timid. As one gets older the choice tends either to be wild or timid.. The two does not mix. Are there secrets in the choice of colours? Psychologist say yes. And a designer of anything says colour can make you go blind. Does that mean colour blind?

Landskap dan terrain kehidupan...
Tengok segala-galanya dalam konteks landskap. Jutaan atau ribuan landskap sesorang itu terpaksa lalui dan terbinalah dia sebagai seorang insan yang mendiami dunia ini hari ini di saat ini. Sangat bersendiran apabila di jengok dalam konteks landskap pemikiran sehinggalah dia berjaya memikirkan sesuatu yang mana orang lain tidak berupaya memikirkanya. Bila difikirkan kesemuanya itu terfikir juga akan diri aku yang mana tiada seorang pun yang tahu apa yang telah aku lalui. Nobody knows me and I am all alone in this world. Menakutkan tapi selepas mengenali landskap dan terrain kehidupan yang telah dan akan dilalui, datang satu macam keberanian yang belum pernah dirasai sebelum ini. Apa saya sudah sampaikah di puncak? Atau terkapai kapai menunggu sesuatu yang akan membawa saya ke terrain kehidupan yang masih sedang dicari cari? Sememangnya masih ada benda dan perkara yang masih dan belum difahami. Aku masih lagi berada di terrain landskap yang memerlukan ketabahan dan kesabaran bagi mendapatkan jawapan. Persoalannya bilakah rentasan ini akan berakhir di mana boleh aku ungkapkan kata kata yang berupa kejayaan yang abadi?

Faces of life..
It is different from day to day. I am different. So are everybody. Considering the different landscape and terrain of life we live, each and everyone of us can never be the same person everyday. But they are persons who expect us to be the same person 24 hours a day. Can we? I have my landscape and terrain to overcome lest I would fall into an infinity of regrets, sobs, and sorrow. It is not your sobs, it is not your regret, and it is not your sorrow. It is all mine. So I have to write because it is part of my mental terrain that I have yet to know the secrets. That is life. That is one facet of life. There are other facets on the other side of the terrain. I want to be there. Would I? InsyaAllah.

tactical and strategy..
Vision and mission...all are in a mess.But tactical and strategy do makes sense. Vision and mission are too good to be true. It is a small world control by the big corporations. As for the small men and small companies, live not by the mission and vision but by tactics and strategies. It is meant for the small world and small companies. We cannot fight the cruel world control by the super companies and super countries and all along with their super visions, super missions, super divisions, and super products, and the so called super taste. Go to hell with their super gates of visions, missions and segmentation that makes poorer countries poorer by the day. They are making tons of money and profit. And as for the distribution, is it equitable? We too can make money and profit and at the same time we are on our way to heaven. How? With tactics and strategies. It is the small roads and the path mark that shall be the focus. What matters is the final destination which is the now wish. The essence of the plan and programme is to downgrade when but upgrade how and what, and why. When? It is always now or never..!

Continuity...
What is in store in the days ahead? The night and day continues and so are existence and the planet earth. But when comes to oneself, the word continues would continue to haunt all living things. At one moment of their life, they have to stop and ponder on things that can discontinue the work they have been doing. In other words they would stop living. But aside death, what about in the interruption of what seem to have a beautiful continuity from day to another day? Continuity and form, continuity and life quality, and today I found that everybody makes everybody as a source of indefinite continuity if they can. The call from my former student gives me a tremendous boost to continuity of things that seem to be forgotten. Life is blessed with the continuity in spirit and not so much in a physical form. Continuity in thoughts...And so the stories continue...

Human rights..
Human rights? Never have been asked on anything on human rights. Not by anybody thus far. Why? Is it so big a topic and meant for lawyers and law to discuss it? We are all human. But are we being made to understand our rights? Cultural suppression is common among most societies not to question their rights. I know I have all the rights. But who like to listen to what I am going to say? I am not a member of the parliament. So what do you know about rights? Human rights are synonym with the UN. In their eyes we are just nothing in terms of human rights. So don't talk about rights if the term itself is confusing.

Opinions and viewpoints..
So many of it. Everybody wants to say something. Everybody is not tied to say something. Are we sure of anything? Nothing is certain about life. Uncertainty regarding a step taken. So many books written. We talk and walk everyday. We gather here today to give ideas on what is good and what is bad. Or I am good and you are bad. Or I am right and you are wrong. Questions asked but no answers. Bad guys good guys. Who cares? Everybody is unsure of direction to take. North? South? East? West? USA? Canada? Australia? European countries? Or China? Why not Indonesia and Malaysia? Many are on the move in search of their dreamland. Opinions and viewpoints. Some are with no basis of the things said. The danger is from those with no knowledge connection. The basis and the connection is the conflict within and being overpowered by only destructive emotions. It is a world of total darkness. Not that they do not read, but the emotions are stronger and tend to make them calculative of steps taken. Money is a rare thing to them. They might kill to their last breadth and in the defense of their lust for something they have never got before. Opinions and viewpoints. Yes they listen. They listen well, they smile and friendly in posture, but all in the name of self interest. Bad politics? Stab in the back. Who cares? So care to continue with my viewpoints? Any opinions?

A process...
Tak dapat lari dari pemprosesan kehidupan. Jahat jadi baik. Jauh jadi dekat. Tak boleh jadi boleh. Benci jadi sayang. Rupa lain dan wajah pun dah tidak sama. Ini adalah hasilan dari pergerakan dalam segala-galanya. Perubahan dalam makanan. Perubahan pada darah. Perubahan di luar dan di dalam. Jangan disebut sekitaran. Semuanya bergerak dan berlaku perubahan. Juga berlaku perubahan persepsi. Dan akhirnya perubahan kepada pemikiran. Wajahnya sekarang berseri seri. Apakah proses kehidupan yang dia lalui menyebabkan terjadinya demikian? Aku nampak kematangan di depan ku. Tidak datang secara mendadak. Tidak datang secara tiba-tiba. Kesemuanya adalah merupakan hukum kejadian sangat tertakluk kepada campuran dan pemperosesan. Aku dan dia. Akrab. Erat. Rapat. Menyenangkan. Satu keajaiban? Tidak. Pemperosesan. A process.

What a day for the entrepreneural..!
Two categories of individuals. One, who would say why wait? He believes in them are the solutions to the problems at hand.The other is the one who is hoping for the day when the problems would eventually be solved or someone would solve for them. They have been waiting for so long and hope for the day when the problems would be solved by it self and with little effort. Which type of person do you belong to? I have been a lecturer for quite some time now. And it is a rare sight to see individuals of the first category meaning not that many are a strong believer in himself. Many wait for the solutions to fall from the sky. Culturally two nations can be world apart in inventions and in resourcefulness. I have been to USA and I found that the people there are being categorised as hard working and high achiever. So are the Japanese. Success is generally seen as self-starts and self-generated. Unfortunately there are cultures which sees success as the work of rituals and still trust in witchcraft and magic. Haha. Don't believe I am writing all these. What a day..! And for the entrepreneurial , wishing you all the best..!

I have been thinking..
of something. Seems to think only on few things. Not that many things in my mind. Just a run through of the thoughts. Hell of a mess with some of the thoughts. For fun or just a busybody? Or just running away from the terrain of the ordinary? Extraordinary piece la. Lain daripada yang lain. Haha. Just give few things to concentrate on. Look around. Are that many things to ponder? No nothing. Not now. Just looking for something, love to write and experimenting with some of the expressions. I have been thinking. Thinking? Thinking of what?
Boleh je...
Gitulah..!Mesti positif. Jangan kata tak boleh. Ada orang yang suka kata`aku je..' Jangan dik, jangan begitu. Hidup ni tak boleh malas. Kalau ada peluang nak tolong orang, jangan tunggu tunggu, tolong je..Kalau ada yang nak pinjam duit..beri je..Haha. Pasal duit kena fikir banyak kali. Kalau sebut pasal duit, ada je nak datang meminjam. Ada je alasan yang diberi. Inilah. Itulah. Jadi apa yang patut kita buat dalam menghadapi semua ini. Nak tunggu je? Atau buat tak tahu je..? Haha. Jangan. Sebut `boleh je..'

effective and efficient..
Tak tahu nak cakap. Kita ini efficient ke atau effective sekali. Di jengok dari sudut dunia keseluruhannya, kesan dari perbuatan manusia sangat mendukacitakan sekali. Sungai tidak mengalir, udara penuh dengan debu dan asap yang mengandungi racun, longkang penuh dengan sampah sarap, dan banyak lagi perkara perkara yang mendebarkan dada para aktivist `efficient dan effective.' Kita ada `green peace' dalam usaha supaya kita lebih berhati hati menggunakan sumber alam. Dan banyak lagi aktivist aktivist yang mempunyai tujuan yang sama. Berjayakah mereka? Sebenarnya dunia kita sangat senang dihinggap penyakit. Penyakit ini pula boleh dikategorikan kepada dua. Penyakit hati dan penyakit badan. Kalau penyakit badan bolehlah kita ke hospital untuk menerima rawatan. Kalau hati sudah berpenyakit kesannya sangat menyedihkan sekali. Tengok gambar yang dipaparkan di posting ini. Ini adalah merupakan penyakit yang boleh buat orang lain sengsara. Kalau hendak ditambah pasal penyakit bolehlah dilabel sebagai penyakit penyakit berikut: penyakit orang banyak duit; penyakit orang banyak kuasa; penyakit orang terlalu glamor; penyakit orang banyak saham. Itu yang berada. Tidak terkecuali juga penyakit orang yang tidak berada seperti: penyakit orang miskin; penyakit orang kurang duit; penyakit orang tidak ada kuasa dan banyak lagi jenis jenis penyakit. Lantas apabila kita dihinggap penyakit persoalannya adakah kita akan bertindak `efficient dan effective?'

It is a matter of principle...
But what constitute a principle? Anything ranging from culture, religion to something social and personal. The principle can be a `birth-right', 'family-right' and on a large scale `societal-right.' Organization does not have principles, they have policies and procedure. If it runs parallel with our principles, then we would work with the organization a little bit longer, committed and harder. That is the reason why principle varies from one person to another. It is just like perception. We acquired it through time. In fact I can categorically say that perception of someone has to do with principles of his or her. If I were to favour someone, love someone, or committed to something or somebody for no obvious reason (no consideration), is it a matter of perception or it is a matter of principle?

Ada yang sangat berstrategi...
Mereka ini suka mengena orang lain atau kata lurusnya suka menipu orang lain dan menyebabkan mereka akan ketawa selepas berjaya melakukannya. Saya serious dengan pandangan saya ini. Kalau dalam hal pemasaran berstrategi ini adalah perkara baik. Itu pun setelah mengambil kira akan kepelbagaian dalam sekitaran. Ini kerana kita kena membuat pemilihan yang paling baik untuk diri kita dan dalam proses itu kelompok lain akan dapat menafaatnya. Tak apalah.Tentu kena berstrategikan? Tetapi ada strategi yang menyakitkan hati orang lain, dan mereka ketawa besar kerana berjaya membuat orang lain sakit dan menderita. Manusia apa ini? Walaubagaimanapun mereka tetap merupakan sebahagian dari kehidupan. Mereka dah begitu. Nak buat apat? Bolehkah mereka diubah?
Mengapa saya tidak begitu...
Saya sebenarnya takut akan kenyataan yang sedemikian rupa. Ianya membuat saya berperasaan sebagai sebatang kara di kehidupan ini. Mengapa? Kerana saya tidak ada kawan yang boleh berbicara. Tidak ada manusia lain seperti saya. Agaknya kita sememangnya dijadikan begitu. Tidak ada sesiapa yang menyerupai kita dalam banyak hal. Contohnya, saya sangat memiliki hati yang lembut dalam melihat alam luaran dan mencetuskan ayat demi ayat dalam menceritakan apa yang dilihat itu. Saya tidak akan berhenti menulis melainkan saya akan memberhentikannya. Adakah anda begitu? Tentu tidak. Semua orang dijadikan berbeza. Ada yang memandang keras terhadap apa yang dilihatnya. Ada yang keras diluar dan keras di dalam. Ada yang senang hati berkata kata tetapi mulut payah berbicara. Mengapa saya tidak begitu? Tulisan saya seterusnya akan menyingkap dan akan cuba menjangkau jauh ke alam (luar dan dalam) yang penuh dengan misteri ini.. Boleh tak? Mengapa tidak. Ini kerana semua orang tidak begitu. Kan seronok kalau kita menulis akan perkara yang mana kita tahu tetapi orang lain tidak. Dengan harapan dalam mengupas hal luar dan dalam ini saya akan dapat jawapan kepada soalan, mengapa saya tidak begitu...
Tense and tension...
Why put oneself in a a tense situation? Allah is Great. How Great is Allah? Allah is Great. Allah gives and Allah takes. Thanks to Allah if you can feel the Greatness of Allah in what you see, in what you touch, in what you eat, in what you hear and in the scientific inventions that can ease the tensions in the use of the five senses. But to some they have to go further and beyond the five senses and what generally being considered are not so easy to digest and understood. The realm of one's thought are the domain of one's own private life and personality. There are thoughts which are meant for the good of many. The conflict arises when one's own private thought in the sixth and the seventh (?) sense are extended to the public and indirectly force upon others to see them as the chosen one. Life is full of mystery. So many things in life are not easy to comprehend in the way we want it personally to be understood. Let the mystery remains. Allah is Great and the mystery would not remain a mystery for long until the tense and the tension are being understood in the manner that spells and speaks of Allah is Great, the Almighty and the Knows All.

Choose to be strong..
We are the chosen one. We must choose to be strong. Is there a choice? Definitely not. Security is not in the fence and the sophisticated security system. Not in the missiles and not in the nuclear weapon. The more we have those weapons and gadgets to defend us, the more insecure and tense we would become. We choose to be strong. The strength is in us, mentally and physically. We choose to be together in terms of spirit and being in harmony with others and nature. The strength is in the economy system. It is not found in the political and defense system. It only assists the strengthening of the economic system. And the strength of the economic system comes from us working together in harmony without fighting with one another for no apparent and acceptable reasons. So in togetherness we choose to be strong. And we have no other choices.
