Reach for the Stars


Some people thinks that its too difficult, its tiring, impossible! Well, they maybe right, especially if they believe it that way. It’s true though, it can be tiring… that’s why most people would rather spend their time just watching the stars. But when does tiredness stop those with passion, surely it doesn’t. 

some think that it can be painful, well yeah, if you want to reach the stars, you got to get rid of the acrophobia, risks yourself falling not just a few meters down, but a thousand miles, where the ground won’t be friendly to you. You’ll get injured along the way, naturally, self inflicted, or by other person. One way or another, you have to find a way to heal. You have to get better, because you don’t immobilized yourself if you want to reach the stars. The fracture from the fall may unite, but who can say that there will be no mal union, delayed union, hopefully not non-union… you may get fragile for a moment. But if you got the guts to make a step towards the stars, you’ll know you can never stop; overtime you will find the strength to do it. When you try to strike even though you’re injured, you may fall again. The people around may think that you have fail, but unless you give up, they can never really say it out loud without being sinful. Just keep on reaching for the stars, so what if you fall, the question is, will you give up? 

If you want to reach the stars get yourself ready to face all the asteroids along the way right? Not just to think of a way to reach for it. Your goal is just to get there, no time frame… if you die along the way, at least you’ll die as someone who is reaching for the stars, giving all out every time, and never giving up rather than dying as someone who just spend their time watching the stars. Do your best in everything you do for the sake of the One who created you, the universe, love and happiness on earth so that even if you don’t reach the stars you’ll see on earth, you’ll end up even higher up in heaven

Datuk Sosilawati's death...Or not?

The murder case of the millionaire Sosilawati shocks the country, not excluding my family. The story became the main issue during this Raya season. Me, the one longing to become a pathologist is more than excited. I keep wondering wether the case was taken to HUKM or not. Even if it was, I didn’t have the chance to talk about the case with Dr. Swarhib or Prof Shahrom. Yep, they’re the best when it comes to the whole question and answer session.

Basically we know that they were murdered and then the body was burned and thrown into the river. The story is the same one every time in the newspaper, but still sells like hot goring pisang. What’s up with that? I can’t imagine what its like for the family; it must be really hard for them… anyway, all this commotion makes me think of something, DYING MESSAGE

If you watch a lot of detective conan you’ll know exactly what’s a dying message is, and its totally different from a suicide note. Of course a suicide note could also be a dying message too, I learn that from watching too many detective conan too. I’m not sure what’s the true meaning of dying message because I couldn’t find it (on the internet). But base on my personal opinion (correct me if I’m wrong) it’s the last message made in any form by the victim just before their death to tell something about their death, and usually the culprit. And if you watch detective conan you’ll know how twisted a dying message could be, its so twisted that you keep saying “are kidding me?” Maybe the reason I couldn’t find the definition of this dying message is because in real life, do people really make a dying message? Who in the right mind would be so clever think of a twisted way to tell others about the culprit when they know they have no chance to live in this world. I mean when you’re about to die, you couldn’t care less about whatever that will still go on in this world, or you may think of a way to escape or stay alive.

Anyway, I’m way off track… I was wondering you know, what if there is still a chance that some of the victim are still alive? I mean hey, in a murder case where the victims are burn to the ground, you can blind a lot of people, the police, the pathologist, even the detectives. Placing DNAs to a murder scene is not really that difficult… I learn that from watching too many CSI. Me? Honestly, I can think of a way to put the DNA to the murders scene (as if…). if only there was a dying message you know, or some kind of clue to point to whether she really was killed or is still alive. But when I think again, why would anyone want to fake her death in this case? Usually people would want to fake other people’s death (or maybe their own) if there are a lot of benefit. There may still be a possibility you know… so to say that I am 100% convinced that Sosilawati had died, I would say no. but then again, its not like this is my case or anything, hehe…

Doa Rabitah

YA ALLAH,
Engkau mengetahui hati-hati ini
telah berkumpul kerana mengasihiMU,
bertemu untuk mematuhi perintahMU,
bersatu memikul beban dakwahMU,
hati-hati ini telah mengikat janji setia untuk
mendaulat & menyokong syariatMU,
maka eratkanlah YA ALLAH akan ikatanya…
Kekalkanlah kemesraan antara hati-hati ini
akan jalanNYA yang sebenar,
Penuhkanlah hati ini dengan cahaya RabbaniMu
yang tidak kunkung malap,
Lapangkanlah hati-hati ini dengan
limpahan iman dan keyakinan
dan keindahan tawakkal kepadaMU,
Hidup suburkanlah hati-hati ini dengan
ma’rifat (pengetahuan sebenar) tentangMU,
Jika Engkau mentakdirkan mati,
maka matikanlah pemilik hati-hati ini
sebagai para syuhada dalam perjuangan agamaMU,
Engkaulah sebaik-baik sandaran
dan sebaik-baik penolong,
YA ALLAH,
Perkenankanlah permintaan ini…
