Patience

I've almost lost it when I heard people talking about things they don't know. Or implying some sort of superiority over me. I was losing my patience.

The other day, my friends were talking about how their education or degrees are higher than mine. I can see that because I study management while they study all these scientific degrees. They basically made me feel put down because they have suffered more in their education and their FYPs were so hard for them to do, due to it being scientific and the requirements were high. When I spoke, they just countered it by saying that their endeavors were harder. They made me feel like my education was useless because they were suffering more. It's like saying to a sad person not to feel sad because millions of people die every day and millions do no have the luxuries that I have today. I felt like they insulted my hard work, because I did work hard for my education.

I tried to pass it over but I kept remembering it and it made me so angry.

I went on Facebook because I felt like I could make a status regarding the matter. But then, I saw a video with some headings saying "Every Muslim Should Watch This" and so I did. Subhanallah, that video was an answer to all my vexed feelings and insults that have come my way. Allah s.w.t made me watch the video to find the message of dua, of iman, of sabr, and many more. Tears came falling down because I regretted losing my temper, and forgotten my patience just because people said a few things that they weren't even aware about. Tears came falling down because I so needed that message to be reminded to me. Alhamdulillah, I felt better after that. I must remember, that the people of patience are ones who will enter the highest paradise.

Riku

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. I've watched this movie about this particular forbidden love. How my heart breaks for Riku. He's sort of the villain in all of it, but he's just a lost boy who kept an unrequited love for his friend. All those years, and everything was over when his loved one died. It was painful to see him suffering all by himself, since he never told anyone. Oh, poor Riku! poor Riku! I feel like giving him a big hug so he can cry all that hatred and anger away. He loved his friend so much for so long, but his friend loved someone else and died for someone else. How pitiful. It's nobody's fault, Riku. You don't need to blame it on other people(though I understood why he would). Dear Riku, it's okay to express it. Don't hold it in. It'll be better if you'd let go of the hate and anger.

Dear

I've been spending a lot of time reminiscing about the past, and by that, I mean about Dir en Grey. Kyo's screams are the best then and now. I really miss the cute Kyo back when they first started. It baffles me how cute he was. Then when they went on Europe and American tours, things started to get pretty tough on them. Kyo turned to express himself more. I have to say, I don't miss the days when he self-harmed on stage. I'm glad those days are gone (almost...) but I do miss their intensity and the pain that I could hear in that voice. I could tell the frustrations that they were having, the pain and the difficulties, and it translated into a penetrating voice which Kyo would scream out to the audience. I think those times of trial and pain pushed them further with their performance, resulting in an emotional performance each time. I cherish those days but I'm sure as happy they are pass. I miss to hear the pain in that voice but I'm also glad the pain of tho...

Is Loving too much a Curse?

I've been thinking about this lately. Thinking about the things that I love very deeply... It would absolutely crush me to have it taken away. Please, do not ever go away. Please be here for always and never end. It would crush me. It would crush me. I would break. So please don't ever end. Don't ever leave us. Promise us this.
