happy birthday

Wow... it's hard to belief that I have passed my 30's and on the journey to a new phase of life. I am still startled when receive compliment about how young I look despite my age. Some even think I am in my early 20's, seriously it's a miracle to me.

And definitely its a confident booster. I feel happy people guess that I'm 25...simply 5 years younger to my actual age hahah this surely excites me.... I will surely maintain this, since I have found the formula to my everlasting youth...nope its not some poison. I realised it is all in the mind game. When you think you wana look young and be young you feel young and definitely look young. I believed in this and it is proofed. I am happy where I am today, Alhamdulillah thanks to Allah for His greatness, I have a good life.

Talking about life, no one born perfect, no one grows to be perfect, no one is perfect, you may have wonderful perfect life there is always something missing, one shall realise incomplete with out this one thing. But to Allah's greatness, everyone is gifted and lucky in their own way, if you lack of something today, tomorrow you shall be rewarded with something better. Allah knows better what is stored for you. 

Sadly not everyone understands this. On my birthday, I decided to pamper myself, went for facial, well it surely took my 3 hours but the job and treatment was satisfying, everything was going smooth till one of the beautician asked about my age, and then questioned about my status, and the next question was, 'kenapa tak kawin lagi, apa lagi yang you tunggu, muka cantik, lebih daripada cantik, jangan tunggu lagi, ni dah 31, nanti anak pun lambat dapat? well I just kept calm and smiled as she mumbled, wondering, well now I can't be telling you my life history or explaining why I am still unattached, wish I had the answer to her, I wished she just should mind her own business. Yes it use to bother me before, but now I have managed to take this issue wisely and started looking at things in a different perspective. Not everyone understands what is the pattern of life and you don't have to provide an answer to just anyone who asks. It did hurt a little..then I just smiled away, thinking 'main ab tumko kaise batao, kia hai meri kahani, kia kia saha hai maine zindegi main, ab mai janu ya Allah janey"

I am glad and thankful that I am loved by many, the greetings that I received on my Facebook, showed the warmth and love by my friends all over the world. I am glad over the years I did make good friends, who appreciate my true friendship and I surely appreciate their love and care for them. I love you all my dear friends.

The only gift that excited me was from my dad, a c$$h cheque from my parents. Thank You mommy and abah..really appreciate it..helps to cut down my financial burden in many ways. I shall use it wisely. Even though the first thing that came to my mind was to get a new watch for myself. InshaAllah I will get my ideal watch..and the hunt begins =).

I didn't really celebrate my birthday this time, the day passed like another just bit extra with special sparkle of 'its my day' in me. But surely I am planning for a treat for my family this weekend. It shall mean something as my brother was not around, I shall wait for his return over the weekend then we shall party ;)
I wish and pray all my wishes come true passing my 31st birthday. May Allah bless me and my family, with good health and wealth. I wish for a better future, a wonderful life with no regrets of my past, as past makes one to be wiser and more careful about approaching matters involving the heart and love.

I also wish to for work hard to look the best and grow younger as I age. As I mentioned before, this is what I call anti-aging ;)--best wishes to myself and my future--the true journey of life begins now...

Live life to the fullest as there is no turning back, life is short there is no point sulking and regretting, pray and smile, Allah is always with you.--ameen
