We share our “rizki” with a stray cat.

It has been 10 days we have been fasting. Some say that this fasting month – Ramadan – is a month of ‘rizki’. From certain point, it is true indeed. The Muslim will share foods for ‘berbuka’ among the brethrens. The brotherhood will be strengthened. Together, we manifest our gratefulness by performing the tarawikh in jamaah. And sometimes, some of us will provide meals after the tarawikh which we known as ‘moreh’ . Again we share the ‘rizki’.
As for my wife and I, we share our “rizki” with a stray cat! We live in a government’s quarters located near to a ‘kampung’ area. I believed that the cat is from that ‘kampung’ area. I’ve noticed this cat since the first week we move here. Actually, there are lot of stray cats in this neighbourhood, but this particular cat caught our attention and only Allah knows why. My wife and I have decided to call this cat as Little Sing (pronounce as ‘seng’). Since past few days, we share our foods with this cat because it always sitting in front of our main door as if it is waiting for the leftover from our ‘berbuka’ (break the fast). As a human who hold the principle and belief of Islam, I truly believed that our deeds will be reimbursed by Allah s.w.t.

What is Hypnosis : the truth about hypnosis

A relaxed, focused state of concentration. That is the definition. But the actual state of hypnosis is a little harder to define. Until recently it was assumed that it was similar to sleep, or that the mind was somehow unconscious. In reality, there is a specific state that the brain enters into when it is receptive to suggestion. This has been discovered on scans during hypnosis. It is not an unusual state of mind, and may feel like you are not in a trance, or in hypnosis. For most people they simply feel relaxed. There is a change in the brain wave activity, similar to that time just before sleep when the alpha state is entered. Your brain's waking state is a beta brain wave, just as you are going to sleep it changes to alpha and then to delta and theta in deep sleep. The alpha state is a very dreamy, pleasant state. During this time the mind is very open to visualizations and creating a rich sensory experience. The more real the experience becomes in the subconscious mind during this state, the more effect it will have on your waking behavior.

What is Marriage?

Marriage is not just coming together of two individuals. There is much more to it. To sustain a marriage it is important that there is effort from both sides than only a marriage can carry on. A successful marriage is like a good recipe whose main ingredients are love, commitment, understanding, concern and togetherness. If you can include these aspects in your married life you can find happiness in your marriage. There's a saying, "A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short." Which is so true. When you talk about mental compatibility between husband and wife you have seen that not only incase of arrange marriage this problem exist where both of them were unknown to each other before marriage but even after many years of courtship in love marriages this problem exist because when they meet before marriage they are at their best to impress the other person. And starts accepting each other the way they like to see each other. But gradually after marriage when you slip into your natural self that time you have to accept each other as you are. And in most of the cases the real self is not what you wanted to see and then begins the contradiction with the person whom you have loved and with whom you have to spend your life. So it's important that when you love a person love him or her the way he or she is and not the way you want him or her to be. Than only you can be happy.A happy married life calls for constant commitment and concern for each other. There are few small and minute aspects, which you tend to forget in your married life, as you get busy with the daily chores. So at times it is important to indulge in those minute details of a married life, which will constantly remind each other of the love and concern being present.

Cost of Living

SM Teknik Sultan Ahmad Shah, Rompin. Dah hampir sebulan aku kat sini. Kenaikkan harga minyak di pasaran global dan setempat memberi kesan kepada kehidupan kami (aku dan isteri). Maklumlah, 2 - 3 bulan pertama sebagai guru, aku belum dibayar gaji and the cost of living di Rompin ni pun boleh tahan. Kelmarin, khabarnya, segala urusan perakaunan dan kewangan sedang diproses and Insyaallah, by the end of this month, i will get my first salary and i have to pay lot of debt!
