What did I do? ...stress on 'I'
Life is full of ups and downs. Smiles and laughter, tears and sadness... they are all spices of life. Everyone knows that and somehow can accept that as facts of life. But we certainly did not appreciate the time and moment when we feel sad or when someone makes us cry... especially when we're not at fault. Who does isn't it? The question now is what do you DO under the circumstances? What CAN you do?
You can explain... you can cry... you can apologize... you can ignore... you can live with it... you can do nothing! What would YOU do?
What would I do? Normally I'd put up a brave exterior but internally, I'd want to run and hide, go as far away as I can from all the injustice. "La tahzan!" Don't be sad... do'a orang yang teraniaya Allah makbulkan. That's my consolation because it certainly makes me feel 'teraniaya' when I have to deal with all the negativity that does not originates from me. Some people can't separate between issues and people or emotional and rational. Thus, we have to face the brunt of their emotions. Sigh! I know that's life... but it's not that easy to deal with isn't it?
Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.
