tangan yang memberi lebih baik dari tangan yang menerima.
give more and expect less~
pernah dengar?

memberi di sini bukanlah setakat bermaksud dari segi harta benda, but it also covers other things, contohnya seperti cinta, kasih sayang, silaturrahim, ilmu dan sebagainya.

semalam, kami ( my colleagues and I) duduk sembang-sembang dengan boss. my boss likes to share his piece of wisdom about life, and advice us. macam bapa yang menasihat anak-anak yang masih mentah yang masih 'hijau' tentang hidup.

part yang paling best..." you guys must learn to give. i know you have already give, but you must give more. you can give anything, but give more. the more the better. when you give, then only you can take/receive. "

dia sambung lagi dengan memberi analogy berikut;
" you only have two hands, and your hands are full.

you have to give, otherwise you cannot withstand and carry the load alone.

you have to give, so that you can make some space in your hand for you to carry other thing that you take.
you have to give first, because if you give, you can always take back what you give. people will be happy to return back what they have received to you.
never wait for people to give.
this is what we call life. "

hmmm..dalam maksud dia. membuatkan kami semua terdiam. merenung diri.

tetiba teringat lagu scorpion,
....what you give you get back
so take my heart, that's because it's all i have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
Cause the love you give, is the love you'll get

teringat bait kata-kata adam dalam filem nur kasih the movie;
"...kamu tidak akan sekali-kali akan dapat mencapai kebaktian yang sempurna sebelum kamu dapat memberikan sebahagian dari apa yang kamu sayangi. sesungguhnya apa yang kamu berikan, Allah swt jua Maha Mengetahui. "

selamat berpuasa.
hari ni sudah 21 ramadhan.
what will you do with the remaining days?
