Perseverance

Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.

~ Thomas Carlyle

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Newfound Inspiration

I spoke to two of my closest friends, Ritz and Elle just now. You could say that they are my most trusted associates. And possibly the coolest. And now I have newfound strength and inspiration. And do it I will.

But Of Course...

What else can I say? It's Ferrari 1-2 at Spa Franchorchamps and McLaren 3-4. I love Kimi and Felipe! Keep it up, Ferrari! Three more races for you guys, more than enough to grab the title! I did snap a photo of Kimi during the post race interview but am toooooo lazy to upload it here.. heheheheh.

Me, I am feeling better. There's still the cough, normal by the way if you are down wih flu. No fever and no sneezing but my nose is effectively BLOCKED.

Today we had Nasi Minyak for iftar. We did go to pasar ramadhan but the traffic congestion was unbelievable. For a moment I thought I was going to fall sick again. God, where do these people come from? Suddenly JB is very, very crowded with people!!!!

These days I am busy executing my project. A very important project. There are several projects but the very one I'm working is the most important. Please pray for me.

Sincerity

How can a person expects sincerity from someone and is not sincere in return? And call the sincere one 'stupid'? But then again what goes around comes around.

Personally, I have no intention of returning the favor. Besides, apa sangatlah yang I boleh lakukan. I will leave it to God. Allah kan Maha Adil. Untuk apa membuang waktu fikirkan manusia begitu. A complete waste of time. Ikhlas itu adalah rahsia Allah.

Don't think I do not notice. Duly Noted, alright. But I don't see why I should waste my time getting depressed because of people like you. So, keep it up if you like. But don't blame people if you get reactions.

'Tis the season for Tifosi

Even though my Kimi did not finish the race at Nurburgring, yesterday, but I am still happy. Yes, Massa finished second. Massa is another driver of my Ferrari.

Alonso of McLaren won the race, second was Massa and third was Mark Webber. Yesterday was a race full of dramas as they like to put it, mostly because of the bad weather. Even Hamilton did not get a podium finish. My Kimi had to retire due to a problem with his gearbox or as Ferrari says, 'reliability issues'.

See, I am loyal, very loyal. Even though Ferrari did not win everytime, but I am always with Ferrari through thick and thin. That's how it should be, isn't it? To me it is simple. Just because Ferrari did not win this race, does not mean it cannot win another race.

Best Wished to Ferrari on the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Souls Travel

Souls do travel. My regal sis definitely knows about this.

I posted an entry on this at http://myjedirealm.blogspot.com/

His did. Three nights ago. Praise be to Allah. He may not be right next to me everyday but he is always with me in spirit. That, he did promise to me. "I will always be with you in spirit, Honey". Praise be to Allah, the Creator Of Mankind, the Keeper Of Souls.

Silence

I think the first virtue is to restrain the tongue; he approaches nearest to God who knows how to be silent, even though he is in the right.

Cato the Elder Roman orator & politician (234 BC - 149 BC)

I first found this quote in my Charming sister and friend's blog. From that day, I have been hanging on to this quote. I was labelled stupid, coward and many things when I am silent in many situations. Sometimes I feel it is wise for me to be quiet, when explaining and arguing is not worth the effort.

I love this one. It is very powerful. Silence does not necessarily mean defeated.
