Those girls and guys

  • Something distant, attracting senses, yet monotone, will gradually distract people's attention toward itself. Yet causing dull feeling and boredom within those very people. Making them not consistent in their own affairs.
  • Mempelajari kepribadian orang membuat kita bisa melihat kebaikan setiap orang. Pada dasarnya setiap orang insyaAllah baik.
  • Terlalu banyak perhitungan adalah musuh. Melangkah tanpa berfikir berbahaya. Berfikir tanpa melangkah tidak membawa kita ke manapun.Yang salah dan sakit ketika dalam perjalanan adalah hikmah insyaAllah, agar lebih baik di jalan di depan.
  • Love will not harm nor give pain. One must keep centred and not let oneself be taken by false emotions.
  • To truly love someone is to let them be free. Whether the feeling is returned becomes irrelevant. Let's not mix love and lust. It only equals pain. Love is harmony.
  • When i have to die by the sword today, then i'll do so by honour. To be a warrior is to accept death as a part of life.
  • A warrior does not die foolishly or recklessly. To do so is selfish and unbecoming of a warrior. A warrior knows when it is to die. One does not end one's own life.
  • Lighten up ! Things are only as bad as we perceive it. Nothing happens without reason. There will always be a lesson, no matter how insignificant it might be
  • Setelah tertekan baru biasanya orang memikirkan makna hidup ini. Setelah merasakan atau menyaksikan sendiri yang namanya penderitaan.
  • Kadang orang memperlakukan Tuhan sebagai pelayan. Saat dibutuhkan diminta hadir, saat kebutuhan terpenuhi diharapkan Ia cukup tahu diri sebagai Pelayan dan segera undur diri.
  • In war, two sides or more fight for what they believe. Right or wrong, God will be the judge. Fighting for one's belief is the enlivening experience that one could get, because one believes she/he is on the side of goodness. When one does not believe, one will cower and run away to hide.
  • The dark side’s false and perverse perception of power will lead one to the abyss of misery. It is a shell filled with emptiness. Nobody cares when it cracks.
  • We have to make life beautiful. Such is the goal of man. It doesn't matter whether one succeeds. The journey itself is insyaAllah already beautiful
  • Jantung adalah salah satu bagian tubuh yang tidak berhenti sepanjang hayatnya memompa darah, bekerja, demi kita. Hidupnya adalah hidup kita. Kadang, yang paling baik, sayang, dan berjasa pada kita adalah yang tak terlihat. Bahkan dilupakan. 
  • There won't be light without darkness. There won't be good without evil.
  • Many people will walk in and out of your life. But only true friends will leave footprints in our hearts
  • Life, experience, aren't kind teacher. It gives you the consequences before the lesson. All i could say is live and learn. Going to be painful though. Be prepared.
  • Orang yang setia pada cita-cita idealnya tapi tahu cara paling baik dan realistis untuk mencapainya.
  • Life ends when you stop dreaming. Hope is lost when you stop believing, And love fails when you stop caring.
  • Sometimes things get worse, even worst, before they get better.
  • When someone loves you, that one cares for you. Sometimes we feel that care painful.
  • Lighten up. Lift ourselves. We might be actually better than we previously have thought. Like having some God given gifts. Let's find them and make the best use of them. In His way.
  • Do good, kind things to yourself. That way may we do goodness to others too
  • Listen to God, even when He speaks from within us.
  • There's a point in our life where we have to make decision and take responsibility.
  • Open your mind and your heart.
  • Life is travelled once. Today's moment becomes tomorrow memory. Live well every moment, good or bad, because God's gift through life is life itself.
  • Experience of hope nurtures your growth. Your life. By helping you to know that life has meaning, value, and purpose. Which is the essence of hope
  • Sharks have to keep moving forward to live. We need to keep moving forward in order for our dreams to live. You don't need to do everything today. Just do something
  • When the tool you have is a hammer, every problems looks like nails.
  • Life is a gem. Treasure every minute. Make the best out of it, for the clock is ticking.
  • Luxury's a mean of blackmail. Including emotional blackmail.
  • When there's no sign of hope in the desert so much hope still lives inside despair. Hear, don't kill that hope. Even willows bear sweet fruit in the garden of soul.
  • A saint is a sinner who doesn't give up.
  • Allah menciptakan perbedaan perempuan dan laki-laki sebagai sebuah keseimbangan yang saling mengisi.
  • Semua dimulai dari hal yang kecil.
  • Tuhan ada di dalam diri kita juga.
  • Bushido (jalan pendekar/prajurit) adalah jalan keharuan dan kesedihan.
  • Kadang kita baru sadar bahwa kebodohan adalah kebodohan, kezaliman adalah kezaliman, kefasikan adalah kefasikan, kejahatan adalah kejahatan, kekurangan adalah kekurangan, dan salah adalah salah...setelah menimpa orang yang dekat dengan kita atau yang kita sayangi.
  • Si vous pouviez maintenir votre coeur emerveille devant les miracles quotidiens de votre vie, votre douleur vous paraitrait aussi merveilleuse que votre joie (If you can still mantain your heart to be amazed before daily miracles, your sorrow will be as marvelous as your joy)
  • One has to know oneself. Reflect. Contemplate. Learn. It is a process. It will not be over in a day.
  • Don't keep banging your head against the wall hoping it would break down. Step back for a moment. The wall might not be that big. You may be able to get around.
  • Bukan kematian yang aku takuti, tapi menyia-nyiakan waktu. Karena kematian hanya memutuskanku dengan dunia, sementara menyia-nyiakan waktu memutuskanku dengan Allah.
  • Tidaklah seorang hamba suka memaafkan melainkan Allah menambahi kemuliaannya. Dan tidaklah seorang hamba bersikap tawadhu kepadaNya melainkan Allah kan mengangkat derajatnya
  • First and always, sword is a stiff sharp thing. Moved by hand controlled by good soul, heart, and mind, it insyaAllah proves to be beneficial, elegant, and beautiful.
  • Eternal ijtihad.
  • Solemn, serenity, even in the midst of crowd.
  • Kadang orang yang lebih hebat dari kita tanpa kita sadar kita dewakan. Mengharapkan yang superhuman dari mereka. Hingga ketika mereka gagal memenuhi harapan kita, atau salah menilai kita, kita sadar mereka juga manusia. Dan kita terlalu menggantungkan diri kita pada mereka.
  • Accept death. We'll all die sooner or later. Exit this life in the best way.
  • Ketika gembira dengan tulus, seseorang insyaAllah bisa melakukan hal-hal dengan kemampuan di luar imajinasi.
  • Gembiralah karena hal-hal baik yang tulus. Sekalipun sederhana
  • Great people don't always do different things. Sometimes they just do things differently.
  • Kemapanan bukan selalu kebenaran. Kadang kita menyentak orang dengan menggoyahkan " kebenaran " yang mereka anggap mapan. Padahal salah. Orang jadi defensive, ngamuk-ngamuk gak karuan. Bukannya mikir = J
  • Today's story

    Will soon become history

    Each happening story

    Make the bead of a string

    Stretched to the end of days

    Each small, seemingly insignificant

    Yet so dense, insyaAllah significant

    The true story won't be there without the beads

    So make the best out of today

    Make the best for tomorrow

    And learn the best from history

Betapa lelahpun kedua matamu, jangan biarkan tidur bisa memenjamkannya, sebelum kau mengajukan tiga pertanyaan yang bersangkutan dengan tingkah lakumu sepanjang hari itu.

  • Jagalah Allah, niscaya Dia akan menjagamu. Jagalah Allah niscaya Dia akan ada di hadapanmu. Perkenalkanlah dirimu kepada Allah ketika kamu dalam keadaan longgar, niscaya Dia akan mengenalimu pada saat kamu dalam kesulitan. Jika kamu minta, maka mintalah kepada Allah. Jika kamu mohon pertolongan, mintalah pertolongan kepada Allah (hadits)
  • Kebaikan itu tidak selamanya disambut. Malah kadang tidak dihargai. Cuma
    Allah yang menghargai dan melihat kebaikan bahkan ketika kita tidak tahu
    apakah hal itu baik atau buruk.

  • Ketika semua yang kita lakukan tidak berjalan seperti yang kita harapkan, atau
    ketika seluruh dunia seperti melawan kita, jangan putus asa.. Tetaplah berdoa,
    berharap, dan berusaha semua akan baik. Kau akan melihat sehabis hujan
    matahari akan bersinar.

  • Saat hatimu terluka katakan kamu tak apa. Saat fikiranmu kacau hiruplah udara
    yang tenang. Fikiran ada untuk menjaga hati. Begitu juga sebaliknya.

  • Your biggest responsibility is yourself. Your battlefield is yourself. Every second
    we fight ourselves, we lose now but we win next, you win now but you lose next

    We just dust but we’ll fight to time indefinite. We are dust from the star.

  • Only the true warriors will survive.
  • Even wounded, a soldier will keep on fighting.

  • Kasih itu murah hati.
  • Menulis sebagai ibadah. InsyaAllah, mudah-mudahan berguna.
  • Belajar terus, bertumbuh terus.
  • Menuruti Allah sepenuhnya, itulah tanpa ego. Para nabi, rasul, dan sahabat-sahabat terdekatnya bukanlah orang-orang yang berlebihan.
  • Teman sejati adalah teman yang berkata "kau salah!" ketika kita berbuat kesalahan.
  • Yang paling utama di antara perbuatan yang paling utama adalah melakukan dan menjaga silaturrahim dengan orang yang memutuskannya, memberi pada orang yang tak pernah memberi, dan memaafkan dan berbuat baik pada orang yang zalim padamu.
  • Life is like a book.

    Each day a new page

    Is that of a traveler
    When she/he completes her/his journey

    all limitations vanish.

    does something with allies/in collaboration does it oneself)

  • Air begitu lembut, tapi dengan keteguhan hati bisa mengubah batu.
  • Menghina pembawa kemauan Allah sama dengan menghina Allah.
  • Mutiara dan intan, yang sedikit dan mahal dari yang banyak dan murah. Melalui
    bencana, ujian, dan cobaan, dipoles untuk keindahan yang maksimal.

  • Sekecil apapun yang dilakukan untuk menjadi lebih baik adalah sesuatu yang luar
    biasa. Hal yang paling mendasar untuk melakukan itu ya hati dan niat.

  • Pada saat suara halus kecil dalam hatimu berbisik kebaikan, tolong dengarkan dia. Dan kuatkan hatimu. Sesedih dan sesakit apapun kamu saat itu.
  • When i’m allowed to give others the happiness they need, i insyaAllah get the warmth i’ve been craving for. It’s life. That way insyaAllah we’ll be grateful for having been born into this life.
  • Bukti kerendahan hati kita terlihat dari cara kita memperlakukan manusia rusak di sekitar kita, dengan tidak membalas perlakuan buruk mereka terhadap kita. Biar Allah yang turun tangan.
  • Ketika segala sesuatu tidak sesuai dengan keinginan kita, kita jadi putus asa, berhenti berusaha, atau mencari yang menurut kita lebih baik.

Orang bijak adalah orang yang jatuh tapi selalu bangun terus (bangun kembali red.).

    karena usaha yang gagal

    telah berusaha
    Ketika sekian lama kau menangis
    dan batinmu menderita
    Allah menghitung
    tangismu
    Saat kau rasa hidupmu tak menentu
    dan waktu terus meninggalkanmu
    Allah menunggu
    bersamamu
    Ketika kau kesepian dan kawanmu
    terlalu sibuk meski hanya
    untuk menelefon
    Allah berada
    di sisimu
    Saat kau telah mencoba
    segala sesuatu dan tak tahu
    harus berbuat apa lagi
    Allah memiliki jawabannya
    Saat tiba-tiba hidupmu lebih cerah
    dan kau temukan
    secercah harapan
    Allah berbisik
    kepadamu
    Ketika semuanya berjalan
    dan banyak yang harus kau syukuri
    Allah telah memberkahimu
    Saat kegembiraan datang
    dan engkau merasa terpesona
    Allah telah membuka matamu
    dan memanggil namamu

    Ingatlah, dimanapun engkau
    dan apapun yang engkau hadapi
    Allah mengetahui

  •  “The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin. Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money and control credit, and with the flick of a pen, they will create enough money to buy it back again. Take this great power away from the bankers and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this would be a better and happier world to live in. But if you want to continue (to be) the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money and to control credit.” (Sir Josiah Stamp, Director and President of the Bank of England during the 1920′s)
“The powers of financial capitalism had another far reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements, arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the worlds’ central banks which were themselves private corporations. The growth of financial capitalism made possible a centralization of world economic control and use of this power for the direct benefit of financiers and the indirect injury of all other economic groups.” (Tragedy and Hope: A History of The World in Our Time (Macmillan Company, 1966,) Professor Carroll Quigley of Georgetown University, highly esteemed by his former student, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton)
