The truth is out there..........

Alright..

I’m currently in the middle of watching project runway season 8 ep 13. And Grechen(one of the top 4) said something that really2 intrigues me and it makes me stop watching the show for a while and scribble(type actually.I just want to use that word ^^) this one out.

She said “ your friends rarely tells you who you really are..”

And its true right?

I mean, if you look really carefully, friends usually tell something that what the others want to hear rather than pointing something out. We shut our mouth rather than voicing out our opinions. I’m not saying that we lied, we just...... shut up. And we kinda do it unintentionally.

Why? Because the truth hurt. And who like being hurt? and as a friend, you don’t like hurting your friends? Kan? Betul tak? And truthfully, we sometime don’t want to be the one who pointing out the wrong just because we don’t want to argue. Or secretly hoping someone else would tell them out. Familiar with the situations?

Me? I don’t like people saying that I’m not right. I don’t like being pointed out that I’m wrong. And I will surely fight back. But honestly, how you’re going to be a better person if you don’t know the bad side of you? kan?

And the thing about me is, I don’t like keeping inside what I felt when I’m around my friend.

I’ve got a friend(miss her!) and she said that I really do speak my mind. And sometimes it kinda offends someone else. When she told me that, I kind of get a bit pissed. I mean, do I have to mind my word among my friends now? Just because they cant handle the truth? Just because they don’t want and cant see the truth? Because to me, what’s a friend for? To tell you all the colourful and joyful of life? I mean, I don’t want to be that kind of friend.....that’s what I felt then...

It took me a while to really think about what she said. Yes, sometimes I’m a bit harsh with my words. And maybe, what she meant was to tone down a bit. Tapis the words a bit. And not always object what people says (I admit. I kinda enjoy being the one who’s always in the opposite side..who's always disagree). But, it’s hard you know.

It’s hard to hear criticisms from people. what's more if it's come from our friends. And it is harder to analyze and to accept it. “the 1st part of the challenge is recognizing it” – line I picked out from project runway by the same person I mention above.

But seriously, you know she’s your friend when they pointed out something that you don’t like to hear. And what’s more, you even know they’re real when you’re the one who’s doing the pointing and they still stick with you.

Acceptance is the beauty of a friendship. And aint I right about that!

Easy On Me

Dah lama tak layan lagu-lagu sebenarnya. Layan lagu ni pun sebab Aina Abdul punya cover and this cover is currently on the loop. This song hits differently when I suddenly realized the meaning of the line "So go easy on me..." I was like straight away imagining the kids saying that line to me....and it feels so heartbreaking..and I feel so sorry and it made me tried harder to be better.. Honestly parenting is tough. Really really tough.. It's going one month more to full 4 years now where I became a single parent to 2 of my sister's kids. Life and things happened to my sister so I step myself in to take care of her kids. I thought then that it was an easy thing for me to do that, but no! Oh God no!! Ya Allah how wrong I was!! My first 2 years in was the hardest and I struggled with the sudden changes I have to made. The 180 adjustment (in every directions) I had to take kinda messed me up a little bit (emotionally and physically).   But I learned  All sorts of things.

A dump post

Rabu dah kejap je minggu ni dah tak ada dah emosional bagai. Alhamdulillah. Sampai tengok cerita Hotel Del Luna part sedih pon, bergenang pon tidak  Part scene sedih tu boleh tak terheran kejap. Cam, kenapa tak meleleh ni? sebab selalunya kalau tengok drama memang senang sangat air hujan turun. Yang aku perasan, diri ni tak boleh terlalu dry sangat emosi tu. Sebab dia bukan betul-betul tak peduli, tapi emosi tu akan build up dan bila dah sampai threshold dia.....mula la break down. Bahaya anyway Many things happened within this little time from the last post. Might be mundane things for others, but not so for me. On Sunday, I accompanied mak to her acquaintance cafe. we had a lovely breakfast together. An english style breakfast.....which is not to my liking and I kept on thinking I want Nasi Lemak! (which they have actually).  and somewhere along our conversations mak touched on when she's 'gone' thingy...I was extremely saddened by that. Like really really sad

Trying is all I can do

This week is an emotional wreck kinda week. Starting from Sunday evening all the way through the week, it's one rocky roller coaster ride. Rasanya hampir semua emosi yang exist this whole universe hadir dalam minggu ni.  Please no more.. Waktu siang tak  terasa sangat sebab serious busy, so otak tak pikir apa. Tapi bila time masa senggang.....Too much feels..too much thoughts... Minggu ni saja First time tidur sambil berendam air mata.  First time menangis sampai mata sembab macam kena tumbuk, dan first time tak dapat tidur sebab menangis. Tapi apa yang aku dapat minggu ni?  It's okay to cry So that I could function well the next day It's okay to feel so much So that I could get closure that I never knew I need And try to move on And to rely to others And to hold on tight on Allah to protect you and your family May next week be better much much much than this week. InsyaAllah.
