is enough is enough?


“There’s something amazing about this life. The very same

 worldly attribute that causes us pain is also what gives us 

relief: Nothing here lasts. What does that mean? It means 

that the breathtakingly beautiful rose in my vase will 

wither tomorrow. It means that my youth will neglect me. 

But it also means that the sadness I feel today will change 

tomorrow. My pain will die. My laughter won’t last forever 

but neither will my tears. 

We say this life isn’t perfect. 

And it isn’t. It isn’t perfectly good. But, it also isn’t 

perfectly bad, either.” 


one thing about people.. we never appreciate things, people, blessings or anything that Allah bestowed upon us.. instead we tend to look or compare our life with others or just psychoanalysis about everything.. This is when the peace that u r looking for, u wont find it, because u r looking at the wrong place..

to actually be grateful with what we have either your spouse, family, job, friends or whatever you already have been blessed with sometimes you just need a knock in the head to actually say, "Alhamdulillah. for everything", you are alive today, you are breathing.. Make full use of the life that God gave you.. make it for good use.. be grateful, be happy and never have regrets.. because our past and future is planned by God.. trust Him.. and you will be at peace..

This is also for my own reminder... because i do have my moments when everything feels so hard.. so unwanted.. so neglected.. but why am i thinking this way, when Allah is nearer than our jugular veins.. he is nearer to us than we think He is..always go to Him.. talk to Him.. he is always there for us..

Helsinki, Paris, Brugge, Istanbul, Bursa, Pamukkale














My travels in 2012 and 2013..
Every country should have its own personal post, but my brain is kinda not working.. hence compilation of the places that i went..

2012
Been to Finland for the first time, such a cold country but with the best and freshest seafood ever.. luv luv luv the food here..so flavorful..

2013
Started with Paris to celebrate our 30th birthday..Such a great trip with my cousin, she's 30 as well..:))).. Paris is not overrated.. Paris does live into its name and reputation.. Go where the parisian shop which is at Marais and enjoy the shops and eateries over there especially the eclairs..

Brugge was a one day trip from Paris.. the town is quirky, luv the alleys and the tiny cafes.. and the chocolates?!! Go and buy lots of Galler chocolates please..

Istanbul was my first islamic country that ive been.. It is so refreshing especially you practically can pray anywhere as there is mosque everywhere.. this is such a blessing..went with my family spend 10 days there which includes trips to Bursa and Pamukalle.. Please go to Pamukalle people.. Seriously go and appreciate Allah's creation.. Beautiful place despite the long journey..
