Taqabbal Allahu Minna wa Minkum

Bismillahirahmaanirraheem

Hamdan lillah

What better time to

materialize

some works of revivalism

than at a time when

joy and happiness and merriment fills the air!

Capture I shall this concurrent moment

when the ‘Alam of Mu’mineen rejoice

in One auspicious & celebratory event

An occasion defined by victory and vitality

an event triumphantly marking

our upgraded spirituality

O Allah the Almighty,

may we be worthy of an

Eidul Fitry Al-Mubarak

And that in essence, isn’t poetry… haha.. I’m sorry for the slight deception but they’re just essentially; some preliminary thoughts, expressed in arbitrary poetical structure. See, when you’re conditioned to poetry analyzing for four daunting memory-planting years, you are very highly prone to express your writing in poetical forms…

Syawwaal 1429AH – marking my official r e t u r n to my abandoned e-teratak yang dah ber habuk ni. Ya Allah sesungguhnya. It was really dusty when I first came back to take a look at it, percayalah there were invisible cobwebs everywhere. Lol (.. that’s what you’d call imagery at play. *For those who are new to my narrative, you may have to begin getting accustomed to a literature component called Imagery as I employ it actively in my writing, thank you )

But really, honestly speaking, I felt like the place was left in such a state. And this may sound comical, but when I first revisited this untended personal site of mine, I actually forgot how to get the blog to function! An amusing yet blatant truth. Ya Allah it was the funniest thing ever! I mean, upon entering the admin control panel I just stood staring at the dashboard actually trying to recall how to operate the blog…I felt so at a lost with the whole instrument panel and was like perplexedly enquiring myself “Hmm, lets see, …..okay…….so what do I do here…?” ya it got to that extent. Lol…

Subhan Allah wal-Hamdulillah for this Finale,

After some countless number of attempts through out the year;

I am fiiinnnnally updating my dhaeef blog. *..sympathetic laughter for the self*.. lol

Subhan Allah wal Hamdulilah wallahu Akbar.

Over the year, I have been graced with the favourite inquiry cum remark

And they all say it more or less the same way

“When are you going to update your blogggg?”

The word blog tu ada harakat sikit, 2-4 harakat. It was somewhere between pleading, requesting and reprimanding. Would you like to try that out? Yea why not and become the 25^th person to reprimand me for not updating my blog… haha.just jesting. ya, I have to jest because I am still trying to get over the fact that I am chided for leaving my blog unattended (???) …ah they care too much.

No .. actually I’m really thankful..Hamdan lillah, I feel utterly blessed to have thoughtful caring and concern souls and they’re mine to keep close at heart…

Yes, my heartiest gratitude kakFatin, kakSyida and Kawther for spanking me softly on my senses…lol.. I mean for simply waking me up. Yes Kaotsar everdearest companion; thank you for reminding me that I have a blog to write! And a blog I do have, to catch up on

There were actually several more people involved and from them I picked up the indirect drive to revive this forsaken electronic journal and I feel indebted to extend my appreciation to them, in particular; a certain 4 individuals who call themselves STAY … (apparently some smart wonderful young ppl found out that their teacher owns a blog… ((oh no I’m caught!)) Lol and the number are gradually expanding ((yikes!)) Lol squared), I would also like to thank you, Des Habebaty, yes enti DesertSoul7 min Em Em <3 and my newly found inspiring associate-colleague-adiksister Wan Mads

So to date, it has been exactly 1 YEAR and 4 MONTHS plus since my last post. LOL Masha Allah indeed. Some g a p that was (!)

Well what can I say… the unintended interval –the what-seemed-like a one year hiatus from the blogsphere is no more than a manifestation of reality. The past year has been a trying adjustment period to career life for the learning teacher, there wasn’t much room amidst the daily routine to even breathe properly, what more to be blog-writing, no somehow it just doesn’t seem to work, especially when you’re the type who takes hours to come up with a write-up…So somewhere along the way I had already made the confession that blogging isn’t really my thing

But then again, blogging is t h e r a p e u t i c, wouldn’t you agree? Yes I’m sure many would. And thus I cannot but remain steadfast in savouring the experience…

So, if there is the heart of the matter and the crux of the matter, then the truth of the matter here is that I haven’t stopped writing per se, it’s just that I’ve been writing ‘elsewhere’… haha. But now I’ve decided to make a comeback to my old and treasured blog. Because the sense of attachment remains …here.

So yaa, its Spring Cleaning time around here!!! I’d also need to hire a removal van to move all my bits and pieces from my elsewhere port and fling em all over ere… lol. So please bear with me while I cater to these transfer-processes

Hehe.. i think that shud do it with the humour… like a tank full of it…

With that we shall now move on to some more serious discourse

Dear respected readers, kindly take a moment to discern this picture…

Take a look at the hill tops at the top of the picture

The mountains seem so near yet we know they’re so far away

Likewise, in a similar paradoxical manner,

the j o u r n e y has been short but yet, it feels so far away

I feel like I’ve walked a thousand acres of a million multitudes of miles

In just a short space of less than two years

in time

The distance in ‘the Little Paradise’ has been short

But the cherished journey; long, far and wonderful…

ever enlightening, ever fulfilling, ever rewarding.

Illahi Rabbi, my praises can never match up to Your Elevated Blessings,

I Thank You My Rabb but can never thank You enough ..

Al-Hamdu lillah, I have truly enjoyed the experience of Teaching in ADNI and have witnessed quite a lot through out the way…and I hope to share them with you as time goes by.

Stay tuned.
