Nak buat apa untuk terus hidup

Satu persoalan yang ringkas tapi susah untuk dijawab, Nak buat apa untuk terus hidup. Persoalan ini bermain di kepala hujung 2016 lepas.
Dunia ini kian dinamik. If you don't change, you will be changed.
Yang pasti, keluarga diutamakan.
And leaving no major regrets on the deathbed.

3 Songs About Turning Back Time

One time or the other, we want to turn the back the clock. Me too. I get nostalgic for old memories, want to redo some stuff I did.

I woke up from this want when I realized two things

• The past made us what we are today. Love it it hate it, embrace it and learn and apply from it.
• The present is all we have to affect our future. Focus and work on the now for a different and hopefully better future.

Enjoy these songs below

Aqua -Turn Back Time-


Cher -If I Could Turn Back Time-


Johnny Hates Jazz -Turn Back The Clock-

The Real Problem

My problem is not forgetfulness, it is I don't forget.

Masalah aku bukan lupa ingatan, tetapi kuat mengingat.

Memories make us what us human ...

Kebenaran dan Realiti

The truth hurts, katanya ... Tetapi yang lebih menyakitkan kalau tidak menerima kebenaran itu sebagai realiti kita.

Bila kita terima realiti, baru jalan depan akan lebih cerah ...

Kyoto, I miss you ...

Don't Know What You Want Tapi Sudah Tidak Boleh Bagi Lagi Dah

Memberi lebih baik daripada menerima, tetapi berjaga-jaga bila memberi, dan berpada-padalah.

Keikhlasan hati itu penting bila memberi dan hanya anda tahu tentang hati anda ..

Minat dan Komitmen

Bebberapa hari lepas berceramah dengan Zara mengenai apa yg beliau mahu buat. Saya kata dengan beliau... Nak buat apa2 mesti minat Dan Komited untuk melakukannya. Sebab, kalau tidak kena penyakit hangat2 tahi ayam sahaja.

Truth to be told, ini nasihat yg i needed to hear years ago. Oh well, you learn from your mistakes

The last post is related to this as well.

Fokus

What you focus, expands. Buat apa yang perlu dan mahu dibuat.

Yes, sir!

An all-time favorite video of mine - What Have I Done To Deserve This?

loved the song for ages ... my favorite song by them ....

Muddy Road

A Zen koan called "Muddy Road":

" Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy rain was still falling.
 Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection.
 "Come on, girl," said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud.
 Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple.
Then he no longer could restrain himself. "We monks don't go near females," he told Tanzan, "especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?"
 "I left the girl there," said Tanzan. "Why are you still carrying her?"

It's a lesson about not dwelling on the decisions of others, the trading style of another person, our own mistakes, or our trading victories. We do what we do and then we move onward.

Got it from an email from Rob Booker ...

An answer to a few past questions in my head today ..

Boys Like You - Who Is Fancy Featuring Meghan Trainor and Arianna Grande -

This song is so playing in my head .. I could watch the videos below repeatedly.

The first video is their live performance in Dancing With The Stars around 2015.



The second video is the official video. It is an animation.




Who is Fancy? hahaha ... figure it out yourself la ....

The lyrics to the song ...

"Boys Like You"
(feat. Ariana Grande & Meghan Trainor)

[Who Is Fancy:]
I'm in the deep end, cannonball jump
Thinkin' of your love
And my heart beats like a drum
Not feeling guilty
'Cause the water's just right
Oh, it might be wrong, might be the time of your life

So jump on in with me
Let me set you free
I'll make you feel like you're dreaming

Try, try, try to follow the rules
I break everyone of them with boys like you
My, oh, my, doing what I always do
Yeah, I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you

Boys like you, you
Tripping, freaking, falling over boys like you

[Meghan Trainor:]
It's getting hot out under that summer sun
I'm not playing games
I'm just a girl having fun
I need to cool down
'Cause I know we're just friends
But one look from you baby then I'm falling back in

What's a girl to do?
I got it mad for you
You make me feel like I'm dreaming

Try, try, try to follow the rules
I break everyone of them with boys like you
My, oh, my, doing what I always do
Yeah, I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you

Boys like you, you
Tripping, freaking, falling over boys like you

[Ariana Grande:]
I get a feeling
Looking you in the eye
Know you wanna take a bite of my cherry pie
Get so excited
Boy, you're making me blush
Let's just take our time now, there ain't no need to rush, no

Why don't you make a move?
You got nothing else to lose
Just make me feel like I'm dreaming

Try, try, try to follow the rules
I break everyone of them with boys like you
My, oh, my, doing what I always do
Yeah, I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you

Boys like you, you
Tripping, freaking, falling over boys like you

I got that something I know you can't resist
I'm gonna make you feel it when I blow you that kiss

Sudah 3 Hari Syawal

Sudah 3 hari Syawal ... how do I feel? happy. Tetapi, yang menarik, ini adalah Syawal yang paling sempoi, tetapi hatiku senang kerana keluarga happy. Fokus kepada kebahagiaan mereka, InsyaAllah, things will be alright ...

Malam ke 28 Ramadhan

Malam terakhir Ramadhan , malam aku dapat tidur dengan nyenyak, kerana aku tahu apa yang perlu buat. InsyaAllah, terima kasih Ramadhan. Jumpa lagi tahun depan.

Malam ke 25, 26 dan 27 Ramadhan

Dapat saya rasakan Ramadhan kali ini  menolong membersihkan minda tentang apa yang perlu dibuat untuk sekarang dan masa hadapan. Yang lepas itu lepas, lepaslah ia ...

Paradigma baru dan tindakan baru penting bagi mencapai matlamat masa hadapan ....

Malam ke 23 dan 24 Ramadhan

Tahun ini rasanya persiapan paling minima bagi diri ini, sejak mendirikan rumahtangga. Bila isteri dan anak-anak seronok dengan persiapan mereka :) Kita adjust apa yang kita ada .... ok what :D

Malam ke 22 Ramadhan

Ingat lagi masa awal2 zaman kerja, persiapan untuk Hari Raya sebagai orang yang dah bekerja. Esp, berkira duit raya untuk sepupu2 yang masih bersekolah dan belum bekerja lagi. Boleh tahan juga belanjanya :P .. pada masa itu la.. Masa itu bujang, most of the time thinking short term and irrelevant things ...
Now dah bekeluarga ni, anak2 didahulukan ... daddy's sempoi je OK :)

Malam ke 20 dan 21 Ramadhan

Bulan Ramadhan kata dengan kenangan cinta, esp Zaman sekolah dahulu. Kirim salam Raya, kirim kad Raya dengan kata-kata puitis kpd si dara adalah lumrah.
Antara diingat kad Raya manis masa form 1 yg dihantar kpd suhaliza, zuraina dan zarina. ;) kad murah je Tp it's the thought that counts.

Malam ke 19 Ramadhan

Sebelum muncul SMS kemudian WhatsApp dan Telegram, orang hantar kad raya. Macam-macam jenis  ada, sesuai untuk keadaan. Yang ringkas, kelakar, ibu bapa. Romantis, dll.
Seronok menerima, best hantar..
