God forgive me

how could you plunge into Incognito not knowing anything

no allies no support ?

You were so clueless

... and the bony ivy tree

..they flourish at home in my own country ...

ignored bliss

some need to be grateful they are not tested

because so many have failed the test

cradle to grave

nearing 50 and still learning

sugar and spice and all that's nice

There will be cheat days

but definitely not today

They are definitely out of my list now 14/01/2019

of closure and moving on

we are glad for our moves that initiated the closure

so that we moved on 

six years of living under false belief 

proved to be of no good 

ei xii

learn to be firmer 

while not hurting their feelings

Falsafah Pembangunan Kedah

Sebuah buku yang ditulis oleh Hanezam.

Mengupas mengenai pembangunan yang sepatutnya menjadi pemacu bagi penggubal undang-undang Negeri Kedah

Pembangunan tanpa menafikan lestari alami

Kedah tanah tumpah darahku. Aku pernah 30 tahun meninggalkannya tapi tak pernah sepicingpun aku melupakannya. Kini aku telah kembali ke dalam rangkumannya. Aku tidak ingin kepulanganku ini sia-sia sahaja. Ada sesuatu yang akan aku sumbangsihkan. 

i love to go a'wandering

One year from now I will be
a proud owner of a mountain bike

I'd scale the slopes
(kindly please correct my English)

just you wait 

5 times a week

The Peter Principle says you are elevated to your level of incompetence
Am I incompetent?
Far from it
It will be a long way before I reach my plateau

RINDU

Almost heaven, West Virginia

Blue Ridge Mountains

Shenandoah River,

Life is old there

Older than the trees

Younger than the mountains

Blowin' like the breeze

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

All my memories gathered 'round her

Miner's lady, stranger to blue water

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky

Misty taste of moonshine

Teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice

In the mornin' hour she calls me

The radio reminds me of my home far away

And drivin' down the road I get a feelin'

That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

Take me home, now country roads

Take me home, now country roads

when all the favours be returned 

it will be a day of  bliss 

ei viii

high time you learned meagerness

before it is thrusted on you

ei vii

your subordinates are not scum

treat them with respect
 like they are your equals

treat them with respect 

if not with love

ei vi

must be a better host

aim to have more useful utensils

aim to please more people

furthermore I don't socialize much

make it short and sweet
last night was wonderful though

ei v

nature is graceful
so why don't you
let nature teach you social graces

ei iv

you'll probably see this on the way to my place

social graces, social etiquette
you won't regret having them
in fact, you will regret not having them

n/b still very true. No use being a holder of an aerospace engineering degree, if you can't treat your old folks with respect and/or love

ei iii

my place is so rural you won't find it on Google map

bunga-bunga taqwa

ei ii

time to hone your soft skills 

before you practise them on your goats
ha ha
then there'll be time
to let go

my intelligence is above my emotions
 while both are subject only to Allah's guidance

there's a new set of wisdom to be acquired within this timeframe

asyik-asyik pos gambar ni

with zest 

with passion

There's Zen in my name and I am gonna make use of it

pandai mengarang

Tadi ibuku menyebut tentang kebolehan seseorang. Katanya X pandai mengarang.

Pada pendapatku, kebolehan X menulis adalah biasa-biasa sahaja. Bagiku X tidak pandai mengarang.

Lalu aku terfikir, kebolehan mengarang tidak boleh dipersia-siakan begitu sahaja. Ia harus dimanfaatkan. Sebagaimana seserang yang pandai menganyam tikar mengkuang harus mencari jalan untuk komersilkan tikar mengkuangnya, begitu juga seseorang yang dianugerahkan bakat mengarang itu harus terus mengarang, dan kalau nasibnya baik, boleh pula menimba rezeki dengan hasil kepengarangannya itu.

today

This is the fattest I have ever been
Never been here even before the stroke
I am horribly 62 kg in weight

Note : Today 13/1/2019 my weight is 63.5 kg

Note : Today 31 Jan 2019 my weight is 60.9 kg

tak kembali

hari ini genaplah 5 tahun kalendar Ayah meninggal

AlFaatihah

diulang-ulang buat ingatan

masukan lama dalam blog lama

bahawa rezeki itu dari Allah

dan usaha itu hanya sebagai sebab

tidak mempengaruhi dapat atau tidaknya

lalu dia mengeluarkan kewajipan

dan tidak digunakan untuk maksiat kepada Allah

maka ini mukmin yang tulus ikhlas

Tanbihul Ghaafilin

mukasurat 700

the likening

so intense the likening
 seeped into me already
purging it out again

tea in my mind

what's brewing ?

it could be that I throw this treat 

because I am celebrating this idea

brood over it for some time
must go to EPF and find out thoroughly
a little micro-credit loan to keep the adrenaline pumping

in a country far far away

the country life becomes me

aku akan menyusul

sentiasa dalam ingatanku
yang mesra berpanjangan

aku sudah puas merantaukini aku sudah pulang

Yesterday at Jalan Sukamari, Pendang

sudah jauh aku mencari

kutinggalkan desa dan negeri

dahaga rindu tidak terperi-peri

hendak bertemu dinda tuan puteri

hmm...

Happy Birthday dear !

all for Mom

Surah Yaa Siin : Verses 71-73

اَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡا اَنَّا خَلَقۡنَا لَهُمۡ مِّمَّا عَمِلَتۡ اَيۡدِيۡنَاۤ اَنۡعَامًا فَهُمۡ لَهَا مٰلِكُوۡنَ‏ ﴿36:71﴾ وَذَلَّـلۡنٰهَا لَهُمۡ فَمِنۡهَا رَكُوۡبُهُمۡ وَمِنۡهَا يَاۡكُلُوۡنَ‏ ﴿36:72﴾ وَلَهُمۡ فِيۡهَا مَنَافِعُ وَمَشَارِبُ​ؕ اَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُوۡنَ‏

the dying's prayer

God grant me

My emotional intelligence 

above my emotion

So that there will never be 

a clash ever again

Let me please her

until the day I die

before I die

cahaya dalam suram

I am regaining momentum to write 

comments to the dear blog again

perhaps reinventing myself after the stroke 

and the long hiatus

Some fresh ideas are brewing in my head

Must let them out some way

The Malays say

"Tempat jatuh lagi dikenang

inikan pula tempat bermain"

belum dapat atau sudah dapat ?

Nyiur gading puncak mahligai

Sayang ketupat berisi inti

Hancur daging tulang berkecai 

Belum dapat belum berhenti

Buah langsat kuning mencelah

Senduduk tidak berbunga lagi

Sudah dapat gading bertuah 

Tanduk tidak berguna lagi

nyanyi hati

Masalah seksologi Anjo sudah selesai

Aku sungguh gembira

Beri pengalaman untuk Ibu
Menjaga binatang ternak banyak lipurlaranya

Anjo sudah ada empat bini sekarang

Dua berpengalaman 

Dua sunti sesunti-suntinya

Anjo si macho dari gurun
pantas dipanggil Anjo Si Kambing Gurun
atau Mr Liew
ha ha ha ! 

isteri adalah kejadian enigmatik

Isteri adalah kejadian enigmatik

Boleh hancurkan masa depan suami kalau mahu

Atau sebaliknya jadi pemangkin

Terserah

Enigmatik sebab sukar difahami

Masih setia walau dicurangi

Entah berapa kali

Enigmatik pada indahnya perhubungan

Sukar tercapai kalau tak ampuh

Tak nampak jalan di hadapan

Enigmatik kalau bisa bertahan lama

Bertahan kerana anak-anak

Isteri adalah enigma

Lihat dua gambar ( dan banyak gambar lagi kalau aku rajin nak google)
Anwar dan Wan Azizah
Tun M dan Tun Hasmah
Khir Toyo and wife

Apa cerita kamu ?

saving the nation

Now suddenly finding myself not much to grumble about 

politics-wise
Give them some time
 before I find reasons to grumble again   

Momma I love you

Momma
whose imperfections I have ceased to dwell upon
because they have become mine

diuji sedikit sahaja sudah menyerah ?

Bangun dong !
