Memilih untuk Tidak Tenggelam Dalam Duka
*****
Tadi ada kawan whatsApp, cerita masalah dia. Kemudian ada satu part tu yang buat saya mengalir airmata.... Kawan kata lebih kurang macam ni;
"Dari dulu lagi saya selalu bandingkan diri saya dengan Sajida. Sajida cantik, baik, pandai, solehah, ada keluarga sempurna, ada anak yang comel, hidup Sajida terlalu sempurna..."
Allahuakbar... Sungguh sampai sekarang saat saya menulis ni, mata berair kerana terkenangkan kata-kata tu. Sebab saya rasa sedih. Rupanya selama ni ada yang memandang saya sedemikian rupa.
Sedangkan apa yang sebenarnya yang jadi dalam hidup saya, apa yang Tuhan telah ambil dari saya, ujian apa yang telah Allah beri pada saya, berapa tahun saya berendam airmata kerana diuji sesuatu dalam jiwa, semuanya tak pernah ada yang tahu.
Hidup saya tak sempurna, masih tak sempurna, bukan hanya ada gembira meski senyuman sentiasa terukir. Percayalah tiada sesiapa pun tidak pernah diuji sehingga dia rebah tak terdaya.
Saya mungkin tak tunjuk yang sedih-sedih itu, tak war-warkan apa yang telah saya hilang, tak terlalu bercerita tentang duka demi duka, tapi tak bermakna ia tidak ada. Tak bererti segalanya sempurna.
Saya memilih untuk melihat dari sudut yang bahagia, memilih untuk menyebarkan aura positif sahaja, memilih untuk yakin bahawa Tuhan menguji kerana mahu menguatkan saya, dan kerana itu saya tidak persoalkan kenapa saya diuji begitu begini, tak pernah menyesal ditemukan dengan orang itu dan ini, kerana saya sentiasa letak keyakinan tinggi bahawa Tuhan ada rencanaNya tersendiri yang tak sia-sia.
Look into my eyes,
and see the sorrow behind it..
Stare into my eyes,
and feel the suffering that lies there...
You can't find it?
Look again...
You will find the heartbreaks,
coz you have them in yourself too....
Coz we're all human.
And those things are part of us,
not to break us but to build us.
Percayalah satu perkara; SEMUA manusia yang kita kenal, yang kita jumpa, yang kita lihat di social media, mereka semua diuji, mereka semua ada sesuatu yang Tuhan telah ambil dari mereka, mereka semua tak sempurna, tapi mereka memilih untuk terus kuat & tidak tenggelam dalam duka.

The Final Year of My 30s
Bismillah.
It's the last day of January and I think I should at least update one post here.
I am 39 this year, the final year of my 30s. There's nothing else I want to achieve the most for myself this year; except to become a better Sajida in all aspects; spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally.
It has been years since my "downfall" phase and since then I've been trying my best to fix myself. I used to wonder why it's so hard to take back the years that i've lost, but then after contemplating, I think I know the reason.
It's nobody's fault and I accept that this is part of Allah's plan for my life and I fully believe that His plan is always the best.
I might not see what's there at the end of the tunnel, but I know I have to do something and what I do throughout this journey will help me become a better person, aligned with my purpose.
I guess that's all for now. See you next month, hopefully.
p/s: here's a photo dump of my January 2026:

The Arabic Store That Warms My Heart
I can say that going to that place somehow heals my heart, which is longing for Makkah and Madinah. The smell, the vibes and the items there definitely make me smile from ear to ear. Seeing almost everything sold there with arabic text on it is definitely heartwarming.
I don't intend to write a lot here, just wanna share the photos I captured a few days ago. So, let the pictures talk! 😄
