Not just like any other day
Assalamualaikum...
Today is Friday, the holiest day in Islamic week....
and it happens to be my birthday as well...
so happy birthday for me...
So, what do I actually feel today?
I feel...like the usual...
Nothing interesting, just the same me..
Nothing changes, except the fact that I'm one year older than before...
And of course, that means that I'm one year 'closer'* to God...
I don't think today is different from any other day...
Birthday resolution? ooh like the usual...the same as last year...and the year before...
It is...well, no specific target...just go with the flow...
To become a better person? to strive towards excellence? become even more humble servant in the eyes of Thy Lord?
I wish and pray for this EVERYDAY, not just on every birthday, or new year, or Hari Raya etc.
(I've just started this anyway :p)..
Even though, how often I do that...is something else...
I don't think there's something special today...Like I said, it's the very same day like the rest...
BUT...
It is YOU who make my day special...
My family, my friends...
I am honored to have you be part of my life...I am grateful to have you pals around...
So thank you for all the wishes...sms, comments, verbal etc...
I'll keep moving on, moving forward, towards the path guided by Him, Insyaallah...
and this one is even exceptional...never expecting it...
This surprised me when I came in to the 'office' this morning...If only I come a bit earlier, then maybe there's something else awaits me...
Cheers, SIGMA Corp...you've brighten my day...Thank you...
* - I mean that I am getting a bit nearer to the end my life span...But am I actually ready to face Him, when the most important things to bring along to show Him, iman & takwa, is a TRILLION** times WAY BEHIND of what I should be?
** - this figure is still understated...
PS - this could be my 1st entry I write in a VERY LONG TIME(a year maybe?) on-da-spot and within the same day...
