Winter withdraws a slow....

no no..it is still winter.. hahaha.. im just dreaming that it was over..hahaha :P

today was an enjoable day though. had lots of fun watching DAN IN REAL LIFE. :D haha its a must see movie people ;)

was abit more religious than usual tonight. was reading the holy book from 8 till 10pm without noticing. haha

anywho, my father once said to me... well through an sms la! haha..:
you must balance yourself in five aspects of life.





1) Education ( mind, studies, success, career)
2) Social (watching your favorite movies, songs, friends)
3) Physical (exercise, fit)
4) Mental (reading your favorite books)
5) Spiritual ( pray, zikir and such)

these were the main things i did when i felt esteem leaving my door steps. i had only my father to show me the way. but the path? i had to walk myself. 
Alhamdulillah, now i'm on the right track. insyaAllah im doing what i was initially here for. Education. Experience. 
etc.
Many things change day by day. But one doesn't. Commitment. towards family, friends, studies, religion.

Allah has asked us to take ablution. Which is what we always do before prayers. Everytime my face is struck with the calm water, i feel a certain serenity and steadfast of inner strength. I feel that, all my 'dirt' is cleansed. With Allah's water, we clean ourselves before we start praying to him. 

Water is ladies and gents, a strong element in this earth. Water being the most thing available around the world. Why did Allah ask us to take ablution with water? not with something 'hard' to find? difficult to see? rare to look at? Allah has made everything easy for us. Everything laid out in front of us. 

Though in Chinese Horoscope, i'm an earth dragon. yes yes... i might bite. :P but apparently, i like how water slowly moves around. how it can affect change. how it can create disasters and peace. what do you think?

let that question be the full stop for tonight. :)
