Denial and Exam

Yesterday, my foster sister back in Indonesia contacted me. It has been a long time, really. I went there for humanity project on 2011 and we just updated each other once or twice only since our last meeting. I just knew she quit her school because of financial problems. I couldn't help from crying knowing that some people are struggling just to study.

So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny?

-Ar-rahman-

I admit that I sometimes complained that studying medicine is difficult, especially when you need to go through a thousand page lectures notes for just a module, classes from 9 to 5, etc. But what do I get from complaining? Nothing.So just look at the bright side. Anyway, there're only 2 weeks away before I sat for my final exam. The feeling is all mixed up. I'm scared for sure, but inshaAllah I will make it.


Stay focus and stay strong.

Love,
Atikah

A Cup of Tea

For tea-lovers, sipping tea is a blast. It calms one's mind and body. Same goes to Iman, it calms.

No one will know the sweetness of the tea except those who drink it. Same goes to Iman, Halawatul iman can only be felt for those who embraced  it.

Tea can be a venom for those who're having constipation but a healing for people with diarrhea. Same goes to iman, jahiliyyah, taghut, etc can be the venom.

Who ever thoughts that a mere green leave can produce this delicious yet invigorating drink. Same with Iman & Islam, we humans can be no one, but with them, we are somebody. Not because we're great but Islam is the greatest.

To enhance the taste of tea, we put sugar and milk into the tea. Same goes to Iman, it should be enhanced with knowledge and understanding, etc too.

p/s: It's just my own comparisons, which might be wrong. 

A few words

It has been a while, I didn't write anything here. Everything happens too fast, which I do not realize it. Oh time.. I wrote a few post actually but as usual, it ended up as drafts. Anyway, I'm going to sit for my final exam soon. Allahumma yusahhil. Pray for me dear readers :)

The Magic Number: Of Being 20!

I'm finally 20. It's not something to be proud of. Not at all. Being a 20 makes me wondering on the past events and on what I've done over the last 20 years. At 19, Al-Fateh'd already taken over the thrown and by 21, he managed to conquest Constantinople. Still, alhamdulillah for the countless ni'mah that I received every single day; the oxygen, the food, the lovely people and much much more, which I could never count.

Oh yeah, this random thought hit me recently,
"Atikah, you're (almost) 20 and it means you're a lady now! So, act like one. Please be more matured."

With love,

Atikah
