Preoccupied

Sunday, June 3, 2012

Euro is coming and I have the biggest concern in my life.

I'm afraid I don't have enough time to catch up with Euro. I'm working right now and it's certainly different when I was a student.

Few years back, I wouldn't mind to sleep for 2-3 hours before heading to my classes in the early morning. Yeah you know, we don't have to be in campus like 8-9 hours straight. There are few gaps in between, you can take a catnap.

But as of now, I need at least 5-6 hours sound sleep for me to muster enough energy to work tomorrow. And how in the world will I be able to catch Euro without the need to worry about my performance during work?

Hiyya. National problem..!!!

I guess I just have to sacrifice a lil' bit. It's either to sacrifice my energy or sacrifice my need.

Sacrifice my energy in the sense that I'll watch the match for sure but I have to keep up my energy level for work as well. Drink some energy drink etc cause I can't drink Nescafe. My poor body rejected caffeine.

Sacrifice my need in the sense that I'll just pretend Euro is not happening right now which is so difficult for me! I don't have to watch the match if it's on weekdays. All I need to do is just to keep myself updated with the scores. Still, it's a tough job for me.

I wonder if we are growing old and older, do we sacrifice our interest to fit with our age?

When we were kids, we were playing with dolls, tamiya, legos etc and somehow when we reached puberty, we stopped playing.

I mean like when I reach 35-40 y/o, do I still watch football or the interest will fade as the time goes by?

I wonder and keep wondering.

But one thing for sure, people keep changing. Our brain is developing. 

Few years back I would have never imagined to be doing what I do now. I would have never like things that I like now.

Same goes with technologies. It keeps surprising us. Almost everything is going digital nowadays. 

Smart phone with a data connection is now a necessity. People created the necessity.

In the future, there's always something to surprise you or even to drive you. You just have no idea how to handle it yet. Let's wait and observe the changes we create. ;)

Steal Dorothy's red shoes

Sunday, May 27, 2012

Yes, I would like to steal it if it could give me the power to just go anywhere.

And time machine is a good alternative too.

Anyhow, I've been working for almost a month now. I like my work even though sometimes I'm tired but at this moment, I like it.

I never thought I need to do some coding but yeah, my SV asked me to write some codes. It's a good thing because I don't have to totally abandon programming thingy.

One thing for sure, working life and student's life is certainly different.

I kinda miss my student's life. But who am I kidding, we're aging forward not backward.

I wish I could be like Button if you know what I mean.

Lots of things have changed these days.

People say "With great power comes great responsibility"

and I believe 'with great age comes great responsibility' too.

At this age, you see life in a different perspective.

Responsibilities tag along for sure!

And somehow at some point, you laugh at the thought of being the younger YOU.

How you were so silly back then. How you were so naive back then. How you were so defiant back then.

But eventually you still have a long way to go.

Momentous Occasion

Sunday, May 13, 2012

Today is a momentous occasion for me.


Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Moms in the world especially my Mom.


She's indeed my superhero cause she's a superwoman in our house. ♥ 

Without her, I'd be nothing. 

May Allah bless her in this life and hereafter. 
Anyhow my birthday happened to fall on Mother's Day. *Clap clap clap* 

Unfortunately, I'm not in the pink of health.

I've got a bad fever, flu and severe sore throat. It's been 4 days.

I'm on the mend now.

But my sore throat keeps getting worse like I have a frog stuck in my throat.

Severe sore throat comes with a bad coughing and flu. ;'(

I've finished taking my meds but to no avail.

I hope I'll get better soon.

Anyway, regardless of me being off color, I'm still beyond happy to celebrate my birthday and Mother's day.

Alhamdulillah, my life has been great so far. I thank Allah for His innumerable blessings.

I've graduated and now I'm working as an engineer.

I hope my choice to decline an offer to further my studies is a good one. They offered me quite a huge amount of scholarship to support my studies but I had to turn it down due to some reasons.

I believe everything happens for a reason.

I'm happy for now. I guess it's telling me something. ;)

A happy toast to myself..!!

Here's to the successful years ahead

Of being a little too nice

Saturday, May 12, 2012

Occasionally, have you ever felt like you're being a little too nice or too kind?

I do.

And sometimes it felt like your kindness has been abused.

You know, like we can simply let things to slide because it's a small matter.

But somehow, the other party usually are seeing things with half-closed eyes. They tend to let things to slide as well.

Some of them are being inconsiderate that they don't value much of your effort to care for them.

But I guess it goes with experiences.

You have to experience the situation for you to be reminded.

Otherwise, your heart is still blind. And you'll never be aware of the risk of hurting others.

Such a sad world.

Even so, there's no concrete reason for us, for me to stop being nice.

Be nice even if you might exhaust yourself. 
 

New Beginning

Sunday, May 6, 2012

 "Make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt.

So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future.

The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy.

But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty."

—Jon Krakauer (Into the Wild)

“The majority of people have successfully alienated themselves from change;
 they tediously arrange their lives into a familiar pattern, they give themselves to normalcy, they are proud if they are able to follow in auspicious footsteps set before them, they take pride in always coloring inside the lines and they feel secure if they belong to a batch of others who are like them.

Now, if familiar patterns bore you, if normalcy passes before you unnoticed, if you want to create your own footsteps in the earth and leave your own handprints on the skies, if you are the one who doesn't mind the lines in the coloring book as much as others do, and perchance you do not cling to a flock for you to identify with, then you must be ready for adversity.

If you are something extraordinary, you are going to always shock others and while they go about existing in their mundaneness which they call success, you're going to be flying around crazy in their skies and that scares them.

People are afraid of change, afraid of being different, afraid of doing things and thinking things that aren't a part of their checkerboard game of a life. They only know the pieces and the moves in their games, and that's it.

You're always going to find them in the place that you think you're going to find them in, and every time they think about you, you're going to give them a heart attack.”

C.Joybell C. 


Here's to my new beginning.

Mood Lifter

My Mark is such a mood lifter. In a friggin' good way for sure! ♡♡ The only person who's able to fix me. Just like Coldplay's song, Fix Me. Hahaaa. ♥♥♥~ Just feel like pouring it out. Ok Bye.

Acoustic

I've posted Radiohead's video from Coachella fest 2012 before, so here's another video; an acoustic session by Alex Turner.

This is actually different from Arctic Monkeys' set for Coachella.

 

I feel like Alex is serenading me!

Gosh.


P/s: I love listening to Love Is A Laserquest while driving. Weird. 

 

It never gets old

Saturday, May 5, 2012




After all these years, they still rock my socks.

And this song, it never gets old. (I personally think The Bends and OK Computer are their best albums of all.)

It was taken from their set in Coachella 2012.

And this was the end of it.

I was blown away.

P/s: I heard some rumors about their upcoming album. I've listened to few tracks but I'm not quite sure. Let's just wait for it. ;)

Sing It Rock 'n' Roll

Friday, May 4, 2012

This is the official video for Oh Chentaku's Sing It Rock 'n' Roll (SIRR).

It has been featured in MTV Asia.


Remember this is for everybody,
The sky has never been this gorgeous, are you with me?
Hey! Welcome to the party, let’s get ourselves rise.
Show the world, how we nail it, how we roll,
Here we go!
SING IT ROCK & ROLL!

When all seems so dark and this is how we roll;
We’re not into perfection.
Baby let it go, this is for tonight, hey,
we’ll SING IT ROCK & ROLL!

They were never kings, there will never be.
This is for everyone, who have showed love.
Together, as one!
ALL RISE! ALL RISE! ALL RISE!

The track of this symphony is turning me on,
Just don’t care about your problems,
Tell them we’re not scared ‘cause we’re never alone,
We’re all brothers!

And here's the acoustic version of SIRR:



P/s: I really love the acoustic version cause Myo has the best voice for it.

Great news

Tuesday, May 1, 2012

Podolski has joined the team.

Say whattttttt...........???????!!!!!!!!

Great news indeed.

I know it from Andy by which he was not really intrigued by the news. Duhh..

Then ignoring him, I quickly went to read some more news about that.

I feel so pumped up just by reading the news.

It's not like I'm going to play with him in the team but I'm really looking forward to see him in the field donning the Arsenal jersey.

Hoyeahh. Yeah you know Podolski is one of Germany's players and Germany is my 2nd choice for FIFA.

Here's what he said about the deal (credit to Arsenal.com):

“I’m so happy to be joining Arsenal Football Club and to play in the Premier League. Arsenal is one of the top clubs in Europe with a huge history. There are many top quality players at Arsenal and the style of football which the team plays is fantastic. I’m proud to become an Arsenal player and am looking forward to playing my first match at Emirates Stadium and doing my best for all the Arsenal fans."

“I am looking forward to becoming an Arsenal player, but at the moment my focus is with my current club, FC Cologne. I will give everything I have until the end of season to make sure the team finish as high as possible in the Bundesliga. There will always be a place in my heart for FC Cologne.”


My precious

I would trade anything in the world if by doing such I would be able to repay my parents' kindness.

But I just could not.

I'm so grateful to my parents that I feel like I'll have a forever unsettled debt with them.

I will NEVER be able to repay their kindness.

Sometimes I may have taken them for granted, may have overlooked their importance but believe me, they play a major role in my life.

I always need them and they're always there for me. I guess it's the same for everyone.

If I ask them for some time, they always find some time to allocate for me.

If I ask for some money, they always give me more than what I asked.

If I ask them for support, they always offer me full-fledged support.

If I ask them for some advices, they always shower me with meaningful advices.

All in all, they have given their all for nothing in return but for mere happiness.

I'm deeply touched and always grateful for having them. Always. 

I hope I'm not a burden to them cause I sure feel like one, sometimes or most of the times perhaps.

I love them so much.

Just feel like expressing my gratitude in here.

Just because.

"Kindness is a language which the dumb can speak, the deaf can understand."
-- C.N. Bovee 

"Have you had a kindness shown? Pass it on;
'Twas not given for thee alone, Pass it on;
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears.
Pass it on."
-- Rev. Henry Burton

The Avengers

Monday, April 30, 2012

When was the last time I did review a movie? Ugh, I cannot remember.

Truth is I've watched lotsa movies but I simply don't bother to write anything about it.

I even watched the much-hype movie, 'The Hunger Games' and it turned out to be weak. Forgive me, but I honestly think THG film has weak storyline, actions etc. It could have been better.



Anyway, last night I went to watch my 2nd 2012 most anticipated movies, The Avengers and it was fantastic.

My Mark watched it first and I couldn't just sit still.
I know I was a little bit late considering almost everyone in the planet already watched the movie. Hahaha xD

First thing came to my mind after I finished watching the movie was WOW.

Yeah, the film wow-ed me. It didn't disappoint.

I'm a huge fan of Iron Man, he's sort of like my hero. Hahaa xD

I'm into superheroes.

The film somehow exceeded my expectations. Can you believe it?

I was enjoying every moment of the movie. Even Mark Ruffalo and Scarlett Johansson didn't disappoint. In fact, they did a good job!

Oh wait, there's Cobie Smulders, she was good too.

Everyone did a good job portraying the iconic character. Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark (Iron Man), Chris Evans as Steve Rogers (Captain America), Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton (Hawkeye)and just everyone.

This movie is a must see!

Trust me. It's very entertaining that you wouldn't notice it actually took like 2++ hours of your time.

The movie is a well-paced movie complete with marvelous actions and visual effects, injected with some funny lines, topped it with great acting and gratifying music and what else huh?

What more do you expect?

This is enough to blow you away. I'm still in awe.

The only problem with this film is that at certain point, the aliens fest was a bit pretentious. Sort of like Green Lantern and I hate that movie. Sorry.

And also some minor errors.

But don't bother cause it didn't affect the movie at all. You won't even notice it anyway.

If you haven't see it yet, go and run to the cinema and watch it!

Vastly entertaining for superheroes fans.

And still vastly entertaining for non superheroes fans.

How about that? Hahaa xD

All in all, MARVEL's The Avengers is an EPIC movie!

LEGEND wait-for-it DARY.

My rate for the movie 4.7/5.0

P/s: My 2012 most anticipated movie is The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey , it's a prequel for LOTR.

Projecting violence is a sign of weakness

Chocolate and Vanilla

"Every truth has two sides; it is as well to look at both, before we commit ourselves to either" ~Aesop

"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on." ~Winston Churchill


Often in times, you don't get a chance to hear the other side of the story.

That's when the prejudices develop. 

And a heart that is governed by prejudices is not reliable.

It breeds hatred.

But then again, how do you know which side is true when you don't even possess anything to claim the truth?

Don't be so quick to judge.

It's chocolate and vanilla. You'll get one flavor at a time or both at a time if you're lucky.

And it still wouldn't be enough for you to abhor a notion.

People always have a reason why they do what they do.

You don't have to be a cat just to kill a rat.

To what extent sacrifices have to be made to obtain justice?

Really, To what extent?

Amuse me, people! 

" Whatever happened to the values of humanity
  Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
  Instead of spreading love
  We spreading animosity
  Lack of understanding
  Leading us away from unity " (Where's The Love, BEP)


Fading Flowers

Saturday, April 28, 2012

This is taken from Yuna self-titled album.

It's her US debut album (She released an EP in US before).

This is my favorite song from the album.

People are more on Lullabies but I chose this one.

Such a lovely song!



You got that walk walk walk
Got that talk talk talk
Got that swagger-er-er
Such a glamor-or-or

You're like a real life doll
With your hand that falls
Like niagara ah ahBut that don't matter-er-er

Cause that don't change the fact
that your heart is black

Cause you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
You may think you're pretty
But you'll see that beauty is a fading flower

Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
You'll only play play play
If you get your way always
In the center-er-er
Of attentio-io-ion

All the lying
And the cheating
The mistreating
How you even sleep at ni-igh-igh-ight
Blows my mi-i-i-indI wonder when you'll see
but you don't bother me

You can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
you may think you're pretty
but you'll see that beauty is a fading flower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower

I spent all of my youth
trying to be you
thought that you were special
that you're beautiful
but the more of you I see
the more I'm glad I'm me

Cause you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Trying to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
you may think you're pretty
but you'll see that beauty is a fading flower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower


P/s: The song is super new, I couldn't find any lyrics for the song so here's my take on it.
I couldn't finish it anyway since I'm not even sure.
Even the parts I wrote are not certain.

I'll change it when I get the original lyrics. :)

--> Thanks to the Anon who left comment correcting my lyrics. As of now, I'm gonna stick with his/her version. Now the lyrics made sense to me. Thanks luv! :)

And again, huge thanks to another Anon who left comment here. I've changed my lyrics. Thanks luv. :)

--> Huge thanks to James Cobalt for correcting my lyrics. I've changes it with your version and yes, his version; it makes a lot more sense.
Thanks luv. ;)

Superstition

Friday, April 27, 2012

Do you believe in superstition?

I know every race has their own superstitious beliefs; usually passed by our ancestors.

I don't believe this kind of thing but I do believe it somehow affects us.

Yeah you know like if you broke a mirror or something, you're convinced that something bad will happen and as the day goes by, every single thing seems to be out of place. It's a mere coincidence.

But people believe it's really bad luck.

Like a placebo effect. 

It's only a mind trick.

And today, my mind plays a little trick and nah, I'm not gonna fall for it.

City

Thursday, April 26, 2012





I love Sara Bareilles and she's one of the amazing singers who would just blow you away with live performances.

I've always love this song and I love the lyrics as well esp this part:

"Stealing gold from the silver they see, but it's not me"

Hit Me Like A Man

It's the title of the latest EP from The Pretty Reckless.

Well I love them and I didn't know they released a new EP up till today.

I was watching Yuna's US debut album preview by Perez Hilton in Youtube and I stumbled upon the preview of Hit Me Like A Man by The Pretty Reckless.

Taylor is just freaking amazing especially live. I wrote about her before.

She has this amazing voice.

I've listened to the whole EP and it's pretty rad..!!

I love Under The Water and Cold-Blooded.

I think The Pretty Reckless is underrated. Come on, this is such a good band.

But then again, people don't really like this kind of music.

I love them anyway. I just have a slight problem with her racy image. Other than that, I'm fine with it.

I even love their cover version of Like A Stone (Audioslave), Aerials (SOAD), Wonderwall (Oasis), and Seven Nation Army (The White Stripes).

I'm a bit bias knowing the fact that they have covered  most of my favorite songs. Hahaa




 

Long Shot

Well my life, it's a long shot. And here's one of my fav songs:



I felt it, the wire touched my neck
And then someone pulled it tighter
I never saw it coming,
I started to black out and
Then someone said good morning
I took it as a warning I should have seen it coming
So now I'll take a chance on

This thing we may have started
Intentional or not, I don't think we saw it coming
It's all adding up to something
That asks for some involvement
That ask for our commitment
I think I see it coming
If we step out of that limb

My heartbeat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability
It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take a long shot

I realize that there is all this doubting
Things we're both scared about
That we'll never see them coming
Throw caution to the wind
And we'll see which way it's blowing
And into this fully knowing
We'll never see it coming
Until it's much too close to stop

My heartbeat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability
 It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take a long shot

Oh I waited for fact to come to fiction
And you fit my description
I never saw you coming
But we'll make it

It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take a long shot

There's no chance, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
It's a long shot but I say why not
Oh you never saw me coming

Out of the Cocoon

I have this bad habit; I tend to over-analyzed things/decisions I've made knowing that I could do better or I could have made another decision.

Do you have this? Hahaa

I'm not quite sure but as of now, I'm having second thoughts and it's irritating because you know you could do nothing to turn back time.

It's a bad habit though.

It's like why would you muse over something in the past?

Haishh..

I really hope I've made a good decision because I'm certain that it was not merely forced by desperation.

Cause you know sometimes when you're in a particular situation where you have limited choices or rather non-existence time/preference to weigh the option, you just sorta choose whatever comes in your mind or sometimes it was solely based on instinct whatsoever.

Oh wait, I don't want to be convinced otherwise. Please kill the thoughts.

Well now that I'm out of the cocoon I really hope, things will gradually get better. Soon. InsyaAllah.

I don't know what's ahead of me but I hope I'm able to embrace it with a smile; new opportunities, new challenges, new environment, new changes and everything.

Let's just face the real world. Holla!!

God, I feel old and matured somehow.

Hahaha. JK.

Inspirations

Tuesday, April 24, 2012


This amazing quote is taken from Meet The Robinson movie.
I love that movie and I really love the quote at the end of the movie. :)

And this song is from Muse called Invincible.



Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright
Cause there's no one like you in the universe
Don't be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Lets use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
And whatever they say
Your souls unbreakable

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please Let use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say

Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible


"Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored."
~Earl Nightingale

Act in Manners

What is it about people who don’t care?

People who don’t give a hoot to say thank you, to smile or to just care for little things in life.

Call me lame for having such an ancient mind; I do believe people should do it more often in daily life.

What is it about ego that can’t be hindered?

What is it about winning side that can’t be bothered by losing just a little bit?

Just a little bit wouldn’t hurt, mind you. I always find it’s nice for people to
say thank you. A simple thank you note would suffice.
At least, to some people it is.

People actually have the effort to help you, to send you great wishes, to lend you things, to care for you and etc.

What’s so hard to utter the words of gratitude? It could brighten someone’s day. You’ll never know.

I don't know but I'm just really into people who practice common courtesies, proper etiquette etc. 

Good to know my Mark feel the same way. Hahaa.

P/s: Being dorky on the other hand is different with ill-mannered people.

“Life is short, but there is always time enough for courtesy.”
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

"I seek constantly to improve my manners and graces, for they are the sugar to which all are attracted."
~Og Mandino

"I think sometimes people project things on you, but I'm trying to handle everything that's happened to me with a certain amount of grace, dignity and good manners. You just can't necessarily win all the time."

My Mark

Friday, April 20, 2012


It's not relatively new but well I've figured I've gone completely crazy.

It sounds eerily ridiculous..But hmmm how do I put it in words?

It's just that my heart flutters at every single thing he does. I wonder why? Even at the slightest random thing.

I'm naming him Mark albeit he does not like the name, I'm sticking with Mark anyway.

I once gave MAC as a name to someone and now it's Mark for him. For him and only him. Hahahah xD (I'm shriveling as I write this!!)

Excerpt from this song is solely for him:

'cause every little thing you do turns me on
and everytime you speak you touch my soul...

It's been a while. Well I've come to wipe off the dust that I left in this space.

It's not that I don't wanna write anymore but I've come to write in another place. It's just that I've always prefer some space with few known people, sort of like a secret lair. One thing about technologies is that at certain point, you'll feel like you've shared so much that it almost felt like your thoughts are naked.

As of now, I've been exercising my brain once again, doing what I've always wanted to do. Truth is, I've so much to do in my life. I have a new obsession too, something I wouldn't have thought of liking before, but yeah I'm breaking the rules anyway. I have so much interest with my new obsession that I wouldn't mind being a dork just to scrap a tiny info about them. I've never been like this. But hell yeah, once I've made up my mind, I swear I'm not turning back.

On another note, I'm trying to absorb the positivity as much as I can just cause I need it.

I'm quoting Robin (HIMYM), "The future is scary But you can't just run back to the past because it's familiar. Yes, it's tempting...But it's...."

In the episode, it supposed to be "it's a mistake" but I'm going for this

-but it's just a set of experiences that will teach you a better lesson.


I'm ending my post with one of my fav songs (if you know it by heart just by looking at the lyrics, you are an ACE! xD)

"I wish I could be happy, I wish I wish I wish

That something would happen. Where do we go from here

The planet is all gummed up in the sea of fear

And where are you............"

Till then, cheers peers! <3

Today is the birthday of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Let's reflect on our daily life by reading this.

This is the last sermon of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH):

"O People, listen well to my words, for I do not know whether, after this year, I shall ever be among you again. Therefore, listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Treat others justly so that no one would be unjust to you. Remember that you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. God has forbidden you to take usury (riba), therefore all riba obligation shall henceforth be waived. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer inequity. God has judged that there shall be no riba and that all the riba due to `Abbas ibn `Abd al Muttalib shall henceforth be waived.

Every right arising out of homicide and blood-killing in pre-Islamic days is henceforth waived and the first such right that I waive is that arising from the murder of Rabi`ah ibn al Harith ibn `Abd al Muttalib.

O people, the Unbelievers indulge in tampering with the calendar in order to make permissible that which God forbade, and to forbid that which God has made permissible. With God the months are 12 in number. Four of them are sacred, three of these are successive and one occurs singly between the months of Jumada and Sha`ban. Beware of the devil, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People, it is true that you have certain rights over your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under God's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Treat your women well and be kind to them, for they are your partners and committed helpers. It is your right and they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste...

O People, listen to me in earnest, worship God (The One Creator of the Universe), perform your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your financial obligation (zakah) of your wealth. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.

All mankind is from Adam and Eve. An Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.

Remember, one day you will appear before God (The Creator) and you will answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People, no prophet or messenger will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words, which I convey to you. I am leaving you with the Book of God (the Quran) and my Sunnah (the life style and the behavioral mode of the Prophet). If you follow them you will never go astray.

All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness O God, that I have conveyed your message to your people."
