Know that it’s necessary to experience certain degree of sadness, so we return to God the Almighty, seek refuge and appeal for help whenever we feel helpless.
***
Manusia memang cenderung lalai jika diuji dengan kenikmatan.
Dan apabila Kami memberikan nikmat kepada manusia, ia berpaling dan menjauhkan diri; tetapi apabila ia ditimpa malapetaka, maka ia banyak berdoa.
QS Fushshilat : 51

Just observe.
Save your energy, no need to overreact.
Life is a series of fleeting moments.
It’s a constant change.
Feelings changed, things changed, circumstances changed.
Everything’s changed.
Accept this transient nature of existence and find the joy in the simple moments. The beauty in seemingly ordinary things. And find out that how these small moments can be incredibly meaningful when we are fully present to experience them.

“…Dan qalb menjadi muthmainnah bil iman” QS 16:106
Jadi kekhawatiran, kecemasan, kegelisahan dan hal-hal yang tidak menenangkan berasal dari kegelapan di dalam hati. Cahayanya sedang tertutup dosa. Obatnya banyak istighfar…
Somehow, through all the pain and questioning, we don’t find answers so much as we find a deeper kind of faith amd that is actually enough.
Because life is perfect as it is.
Our sacred duty is to see its perfection in every single stage of it.
Abcoude, Amsterdam.
Embracing the dance of the uncertainty in life.
For uncertainty plays a crucial note in the grand symphony of life.
It humbles us and shapes us into a being who surrender.
Somehow, there is something freeing in embracing the unknown.
And that, i think, is the way to experience the Divine power within.

The path can be very messy, hard and probably not the way you you had imagine it at all.
I bet at some point you will get tired and just want go quit.
But if you are being honest to yourself, it’s the only thing that you have ever wanted to.
So, take a deep breath.
Feel the joy of being alive!
Keep walking.
And that’s enough.
Efteling, the Netherlands
Pray. Trust. Wait.
Cherish every moment.
Gorinchem, the Netherlands.
In the midst of the uncertainties…Alhamdulillah
