A FOGGY Morning

Thick cloud just above d ground that makes it difficult to see which is called FOG was spreading my housing complex this morning.
It was unusual scenery I have ever met …that morning subhanallah was so peaceful n beautiful. Delicious smell of morning breakfast made from houses smelt strongly and made me get hungry spontaneously.

Fog happens whenever the air reaches a point of extremely high humidity. Most commonly, it happens when the air rapidly cools, causing condensation to form. I thought I was somewhere at Puncak area (highest point at Bogor area) ..but no ..still at Ciputat on d way to office on Sudirman.

As soon time moves, all those “scenery” were faded away …together with d movement of all public transportation take their passengers to do their own business. And that’s d beginning of life in reality ……….

Al BAIK Restaurant, Mecca

Never think I can find a best chicken restaurant in Mecca. With the help of Indonesian friend who has been living for ages there we took a taxi to Al Baik Restaurant. Actually this resto is close to Holy Mosque, u can pass Pasar Korma "date market" before going there.

I heard that many Saudis are crazy about it, so we tried it and I realized then why .. It offers 4 deep fried chicken (big size for Indonesian) served with garlic sauce and bread n served in a box of aluminum foil. Frankly I cant finish them ..so brought them some to our hotel ha ha ha ha…

We will be seated after having a number, then this was my first experience when I stepped inside that each room has own curtain ..…(fully) ..so we stayed n waited for the length of times it depends on the amount of customers ordered. The place, I forgot the names, but very close to Holy Mosque, is in a huge shopping mall. The welcome was friendly, with crowd from local ppl talking, family gathering, and also met some Asian group.

What makes this fried chicken best is when comes to our first bite it will have our mouth watering spicy chicken roast (dipped in garlic sauce) and the shrimps (with coctail sauce). Said that sauces are specials made to order by Al Baik. Their dishes are accompanied by French fresh and buns. And u will also enjoy the coke logo of Al Baik too. The price is not much .....am sure u will enjoy n feell happy about it.

Pain is not always a negative force; it is not something that one should always hate. But when it comes to myself it will be different.
Need times n times to heal qalbu n finding d rite time back.
Many tries to consul feeling ..but still d same …pain, suffering, rejection etc etc are still there.

The outcome of being in that situation will be varies: not having sincere tongues, impolite, and it’s hard to have a noble hearts.

However, when we face such difficulties, we should turn the pain into a force of creativity ..(although it’s easy said than done), be nice to them who “created” d situation and start giving. We should believe, those who feel the greatest pain are usually the most tenderhearted. Ameen.

FISH Without Water .....

It was a gloomy nite as I lied in bed in d bumpy hearts of d situation. I have n opened my computer and went from one site to another sites. I found nothing that made me feel peace and attracted my attention – NOTHING that made me feel better.
So I browsed again and again until my eyes were tired – still I have found nothing.

My tears blurred the nite – I touched my fingertips n I felt my tears dropping. My mind struggled to remember all my past – I fought battle with another part of my mind, trying desperately to forget.

I felt very miserable that nite and was alone in my worldly quests.. I didn’t find any “friends” thro browsing million of sites. I felt so overwhelmed filled with fear. But then I moved my hands n found my Prayer Beads, are traditionally used to keep count of the repetitions of prayers, and I went from 1 to 115 ..and what I did …I found I slept in d middle of praying ….

TIRED Eyes ...

I dunno how management chooses for their company to join a tender. With only a limited sources they force us (if it can be said) that to work on the projects. And the result are always everything in a rush – panic- not in a well schedule. For me personally, the project itself more often than not true.- only a game of high business anyway. Which was taken our energies for “thousand hours” on working late but so far only a little percent works out?

I am tired now: woke up with a heavy raining, went to work at 5 am to catch the xxxx meeting, had a horrible traffic, had two working partners in sick and it’s a deadline day, went home in d middle of nite.

And now am at home ….taking my day off n seeing them from a distance while sipping my Nescafe.
