I am too kind

Too kind that I got trampled by opportunistic so-called friends. So much is owed and because of trust, word as bond was used. Most Malay businessmen I know don't hold their end of bargain if we used words as bonds.

One more thing, I am pissed to the corrupt ways of business I endured. They set a system and yet I would not follow the system that is corrupt and clearly against the teaching of Islam. I may be poor but my integrity is secured. I don't believe in being a kaki bodek and giving undertable. And for that I lost the business advantages as they said it. So, bye bye professional knowledge, bye bye merit.

Ya Allah, show the path, the righteous path as I hold hard on my principles in accordance to Islam. And I am grateful for the rezeki which is halal. You are truly great. Subhanallah. Alhamdulillah.

Hari Bapa - Tears shed.

Sunday Morning, Kuala Terengganu - Father's Day

I woke up with a make-shift envelope made from a notebook. Inside the envelope there is a letter worded in Malay.

Selamat Hari Bapa

Selamat Hari Bapa, Adik minta maaf
apa yang adik buat, adik
sangat berterima kasih kerana bersungguh-
sungguh untuk mencari duit. Adik
berharap akan abah panjang umur....

(Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day, I ask for forgiveness
for what I have done, I am thankful because
(you) worked hard to earn cash (for the family)
I hope you will have a long life)

A five ringgit note was attached to it.

A drop of tear appears on my eyes. My daughter took the liberty to wish me Father's Day and even gave me RM5. It's not expensive wish cards or the RM5. The thought of wishing me that really touches my heart.

I gave back the RM5 and said thanks to her, you need it more than I do.

Thanx Fareeha, Dad always working hard for the whole family. And InsyaAllah, with your doa, I may live long. Hopefully rezeki will be an abundance soon.
