A duel

A brave person knows when to sheath his sword in battle.

He stops only for a while, to reassess, recollect and restructure.

While doing so he hides in the darkness unseen by the opponent

He hides on a tree.

And waits

The foe gets impatient and loses wisdom and focus,

Thinking the warrior has fled,

He sheathed his sword,

Upon sheathing the warrior flew from the tree,

And cuts his foe's two thumbs off

So no terror could be ever  committed again

Turning Point

I'm to old for this. Should stop. Time to follow the tides of change. For if we fail to follow the tides, we will be swept away and drown.

Korban

Tonight is hari raya night. Hari raya Aidiladha. The day in which we honour one of our Prophet for willing to sacrifice his own son to God and the willingness of his son to be sacrificed.

Eversince we are young our life encircles around sacrifices eventhough we may not notice it. When a baby stops breastfeeding, it sacrifices it's own desires. When a child goes to school for the first time, they have to sacrifice their time away from their parents. When a student wants good grades, he or she has to sacrifice his or her time to study. When we want to have something or someone, we have to sacrifice our time and money.

A soldier sacrifices his own life to protect the country. Poverty stricken people sometimes sacrifice their dignity just to survive.

We are all used to sacrificing eversince we were young but how many of us could be able to sacrifice their time for the Man above. How far are we able or willing to sacrifice for God?

That my friends is the question that I believe only you could answer. So reflect for a while, the sacrifices that we have made so far and think about it...

Happy Aidiladha!!
