Happy New Year Ma'al Hijrah 1429!!


Salam Ma'al Hijrah 1429 to all. Very busy week this week. No time for photography. Trying to adjust with new routine. All my kids are schooling this year, with Ammar in Playschool, Kak Ngah in standard one and Kak Long in standard 5. What had made it hectic was that Kak Ngah is in afternoon session and Kak Long is in morning session (and vice versa for Agama School), and i'm the driver!! Hopefully this new year (today onwards) things will fall into its places. Because... today i'm expecting a new maid to arrive. Talk about Hijrah, she comes at the right time... Have been receiving warm wishes through sms since midnight last night. Here i would like to share one which had 'touched' me. (Don't know who is the original author):


Sometimes Allah breaks our spirit to save our soul,

He breaks our heart to make us whole,

He sends us pain so we can be stronger,

He sends us failure so we can be humble,

He sends us illness so we can take care of ourselves,

Sometimes Allah takes everything away from us

so we can learn the value of everything He gave us...

Allah is Great!! Allahu Akbar!!


Salam Ma'al Hijrah 1429. May this year be filled with baraqah from Him, InsyaAllah...

Hello K E,

Salam Maal Hijrah.

Oh you have young school going kids and you're their driver? I can understand how hectic it is. This needs extra strength in being patient. Only if either there is only one session like UK morning to 3pm with lunch and tea at school together with co curriculum or there's no traffic jams..sigh!

I like the saying and it is true, every single word.

Hi Dek E, can't call you Kak bcos u're so much younger....

Love your photos...must learn how to put the identification on them!

Your Dad has a PhD in photography!! WoW!

My children are all grown...hang in there with being the friendly neighbourhood chauffer, enjoy it while you can! it will be over before you know it...then you'll just sit at the PC and reminisce....just like me now!
Salaam!
