Places to find love.

Where to find love?

From all the movies that I've watched

This is a list of all the places you can find love!

1. At a coffee shop - F.R.I.E.N.D.S
2. Next door
3. At work
4. At a deserted back alley - Enchanted
5. At a club
6. In school - Spiderman, Be with me, Beautiful Mind
7. At the expressway - The Japanese story about a fan who contracted A.I.D.S
8. At the beach - Just Married, Little Mermaid
9. In the jungle - Tarzan and Jane
10. On a cruise ship - Titanic
11. At home - What's that story, starring Keira Knightley
12. Aboard a pirate ship
13. On a magic carpet ride
14. In a space ship
15. In Bali
16. At a bookshop - Notting Hill
17. At the ER - E.R, Grey's Anatomy
18. In the slums - SLUMDOG millionaire
19. Over the internet - You've got mail
20. In another spiritual dimension - GHOST


Movies tell me that you can find love just about anywhere. But my experience tells me this.

1. At a coffeeshop - Nope.
2. Next door - Yes.
3. At work - Yes you may. Especially if your job allows you to meet a lot of people.
4. At a deserted back alley - Unless you get rescued.
5. At a club - Yes.
6. In school - Yes.
7. At the expressway - Worked for my cousin.
8. At the beach - Well if your wearing that little clothes, of course love happens.
9. In the jungle - I guess, with all the risk of danger and all that, it almost happened.
10. On a cruise ship - Never tried, can't say if it does work.
11. At home - What's that story, starring Keira Knightley
12. Aboard a pirate ship - Have never been on one.
13. On a magic carpet ride - Have never been on one.
14. In a space ship - Have never been in one.
15. In Bali - Yes.
16. At a bookshop - No.
17. At the ER - No.
18. In the slums - Did not happen for me.
19. Over the internet - Yes.
20. In another spiritual dimension - One sided attraction most of the time. Either way.

ramadhan

Ramadhan has ended and now this call to visit the holy city is really

Going to the holy city is not as easy as I thought it would be. First I need to deal with the fact that I am really short of funds.

Why punish myself to do this, if I am really not having money.

But why not?

They say hajj changes you

I'm intending to perform the small one

At the back of my mind right now.. I am picturing the base of brain searing with shocking and overwhelming and fleeting images...

My breath cut short
aND MY Eyes bulging out

I'm scrambling for the final chance and I'm not getting it.

I don't want that to happen to me.

I think this Umrah thing is going to demand a lot from me.
If I can see myself this time, this December in Umrah.

I know I'm okay.

If not.. I dissapoint myself.

there's a fine line between life and death

I don't know who will read this
but when you do

I hope you understand what I'm seeing and see even more perhaps

there's a fine line between the living and the dead.
what comforts me most is that this earth belongs to us both.
there's a time to be alive, and there's a time set for us to be dead.
we cannot do both.
and then there will be a time again, when we will live again this time, if Allah wills it so, then, forever

the body of the living is a shell for the soul that resides within
and the machine that allows the soul to function in this world
when devoid of life,
it becomes flesh, it disintegrates
and ceases to exist

there's a fine line between life and death
sometimes the soul persists
but the body disintegrates

both ways, it is difficult for the other living to witness

we all undergo the state of birth and death

it is a part of all of us

it seems that time
sometimes time makes us forget
the alternation of day and night
and our activities in between

we forget
that we die eventually as we were borne once upon a time

they say mortality rates have increased over the years
people live longer
another 20 years
and so?

I was once 5 years old
I still remember the memories I had done
I still remember the memories my father and mother created for me
the world, the cocoon, the night lights, and the fancy dresses,
the shoes, the dancing, the music, the coloring and how I fashioned my hair in front of the mirror,
I am 25 now
20 years have passed
and time will never return to the point I was 5.

People age, people grow old, things change, seasons pass

Although sometimes I feel like my mind always knew a lot of things
I just now know that I am passing the things I am meant to pass

And I pray that He forgives me
as I make my mistakes along the way

All I ask for as I am still alive
is to rid me of arrogance and doubt of Him
rid me of anger and dishonesty

Eventually my place is the cracks between the soil
And my fate lies entirely in His hands...

from him you come, to him you return...
this is life
that is all

you know when they say
smile at the world
and the whole world smiles back

there's a formula out there I am certain that will help us predict when good times will occur and when bad times will occur.

i really think there's a possible linking theory that can link everything up. Every single thing up.

And if I had the brain of a billion brains in one body. I will be able to calculate exactly when something is going to happen.

My theory is this. I must have done something right. I must have had strike lottery in the factors causing things to work in a more favorable way.

I believe Ramadhan has to do with it, now that there's no satans around. I actually believe in this. I feel a greater peace during Ramadhan. It is just different. You see the best in people in Ramadhan.

And then I believe praying to God plays a factor. Imagine your brain sychronized in a way upon prayer, affecting everything else.

And then winning God's favour.

I mean if God wills so.

You just grab it.

That is the formula of life.

So you hang on when you are having a shitty day. Just keep pressing on, make sure the factors are in line. Hold your ship down!
