Appreciation (Menghargai): Part 2

-

 

    Actually, when I wrote the first part of this topic, I knew what I want to talk about in part 2.. it's just... it has been four months since that because I delayed it for so long and already forgot what I want to write. So many things happened in my life to the point I don't really have the mood to start writing again, until now. All in all, please bear with me if I'm writing nonsense in the end huhu.

    I wanna start this second part with appreciation for people around us, I know I have some personal reasons for the topic but I can't remember anymore. First things first, there may be some of you that always thinking you don't need other people, you are a lone wolf,  people disappoint you. Well, sometimes I do too. But after giving some thinking (and a bit of experience) , I do think we actually need people around us. Even in religion and science, humans are a social being. Basically you can't live in this world alone, even if you really believe that. 

    That's just my opening btw. I don't really know how to start, but what kind of link appreciation has with people? In this context, it will be more understandable if I change 'bersyukur' to 'menghargai'. Both can be linked, from 'bersyukur' you will 'menghargai'. Do you need to appreciate every single of people in your life? Actually, the answer from me is yes. No matter who they are, you friends, your foe, your family. Maybe just the way is different. Those people crushed you and make you down yet you are still standing? Thanked them because that rough part of life is making you stronger and immune to upcoming bullsh*t people will give you in the future. They are being nice? It will show you good people are still there, you still have some hope in humanity.

    Do you realize what kind of person you are will attract some specific kind of people? I learned it from someone. Basically how you are as a person, your thinking, you beliefs, will influence your surroundings and daily life. But I'm not going too far, just in the context of people. For example, do you always meet toxic people? Are you tired of it and think all people cannot be trusted? Maybe you are toxic to the other people as well. Moreover, did you know most toxic people didn't even know they are being toxic? Maybe you didn't realize you fall under that category as well. 

    So, by actually appreciating people around us, it can change our social circle significantly. Start to develop a new mindset and look for the worth in other people. By giving that kind of energy, you will attract good people as well, people that will see your worth. I'm saying this out of my experience. I've lost some people and met even more new nice people. I noticed they come and go because I changed too in the long run. (btw I'm highly self aware person) 

    While we are still at it, I have simple reminders for you guys. Say thanks, practice to apologize sincerely, acknowledge what people do for you, say 'please'. You don't have to always do this one but if you can, return the favor. This is actually some simple things that will get you far in life by practicing it daily. It's true that nice people is decreasing nowadays, so try to be one and InsyaAllah you will find more. Ouh, and don't forget to pray for other people. I heard if you pray for someone that prayer will come back to you ^^

    After all, I think my own ultimate purpose for being nice to people is, I believe that you don't know if someone is praying for you because of your kindness to them, even a little. Maybe their prayer is the reason why you are here now and achieving what you can. (Mana tau kan dalam doa ramai2 orang, doa certain orang tu yang makbul). That's all what I'm believing in.

A little addition:

    Do you have any regrets for losing someone? You always heard sayings like " God remove people from your life because it's the best for you/ they are not good for you" something like that right? Well, it's true. And it's also true  for the opposite person. No offense but have you ever think that specific quotes also applicable to other person, meaning while they are not the best for you, you are also not the best for them and God remove you from their life? I'm saying this because some people think they have the higher ground and all people that left them is at fault. Again, maybe the problem is not always them. Anyway you can start over, it's never too late to improve ourselves.

    Hah that's all from me. I guess it's true you have to try write something first and it will flows naturally. If you disagree by my point of view, it's okay, let's share and exchange our opinion together alright? After all, I'm purely express from what I learn, know, and experience, I'm still in my journey called life. Till then..

I don't have any poem,

Maybe next time.

Assalamualaikum.

Assalamualaikum and welcome, this time I intended to write about my experience, what we learn (I think I'll talk about this more) as a fine art student in UiTM Kampus Alor Gajah, Melaka. As you guys might know, before we start our first sem the part 1 student (yes, uitm called the student 'part' and not 'sem') will face interim month where we complete the registration, got our college and room, class, timetable and so on. There's this infamous thing where in uitm Malaysia-wide called MDS week aka Minggu Destini Siswa xD. This MDS is usually filled with talks about uitm, the student portal yada yada (but it's important tho so don't skip any useful information).  Whether this MDS will be a hell or a fun program will depend on the uitm itself. Alhamdulillah all the PM (fasilitator) in uitm Alor Gajah all are very nice and always concern about us, "siswa siswi okay? siswa siswi ada yang sakit tak? siswa siswi dah lapar ke?" okay that las...

Appreciation (Bersyukur) : Part 1

-
     If the topic is about appreciation, there are too many aspects that can be talk about, whether it's between humans, or our own sense of appreciation. I think I can break it to different parts. This is part 1 tho. You might think, who actually have time to think all of this unnecessary things? Hahaha I am. It can't be helped, I tend to think deep (sometimes overthink too lol) and this is how I release my thoughts.       (Disclaimer: this is purely based on my personal perspective and it is subjective. Every faults in expressing opinion is from myself and all the good things comes from Allah SWT, InsyaAllah)     Have you ever come across some quotes, articles or even someone on the internet that talks about 'appreciation' (including me huhu) but you never actually get it, or even feel it? You're not alone. I was in that kind of position too when I was having a dark time. 'Appreciate what you have', 'not all people in this world have the pr...
