C'est la vie

Sometimes when a calamity befalls you or your loved ones (they’re interchangeable, really), you wish to be at the centre of it all. The sharing of pain and sorrow, by some intricate means, seems more bearable that way. Being so far away leaves you feeling so alone and bothered you even feel guilty. For there are moments when you, being at the periphery of all that, unconsciously step outside and join in the whole shebang of another thing of the moment, laughing and forgetting. And as you rightfully step back in, it shakes you up harder than it feels it should you almost suffocate from your own crying.

Never did I imagine being home would mean so much to me like it does now.

"So have patience! Allah's promise is the very truth, and let not those who have no certainty make thee impatient." - Ar-Rum: 60

To my sister Aliah- Happy 16th birthday! Dah besa ye awok... ish2 tak sangke..

I know it must be an incredibly tough time for you and Sarah right now. It is true that sharing the pain allows all of us to breathe the healing air together.

Hang tough, the sun will surely peek through one day....InsyaAllah.

Take care.

P/S Happy birthday Aliah. Bila nak ke Gemencheh?
