Khamis, 25 Ogos 2016 {0} | Leave a comment ? Things are happening so fast. And theres only three days to go until u registration day. And ive been reflecting. (Actually, i was filled with anger and vengeance, infidelity, rasa tak puas hati, bla bla bla) And after brain dumping things, i start to feel grateful. Im grateful that i did join the revolution towards natural health. Ive beginning to learn, or more like relearn, the spirituality that gives us calm and relaxation of mind and body. Thanks to learning about bullet journal, that i come to learn about other stuffs that brings relaxation like organizing and decluttering, praying and meditating, exercising and yoga, and best of all; the feeling of pen to paper. Its really benefits to declutter your brain by writing out things, the words that are scattered in your mind, labelling the feelings and emotion, then relabel and redefine them. It makes you a better person to reflect, to meditate, and to reaffirm yourself of whats going on. Ive learnt it all when i was in school. And i went to an islamic school. I feel irony when i realize im looking at the western ways to find myself again which i was taught to do so in islamic teachings. Meditating, praying, staying organized, keeping healthy, reflecting... All these were taught by my teachers. But i was all in clouds in the past. And i grew to be a depressed, indecent muslim. I searched my way to islam again by looking at the western. Maybe because theres a revolution and (more directed) classes/articles that i can join and follow happily, knowing the ways that werent as clear to me in the past. ( im feeling like im dragging this talk ) What i wanted to tell you guys is that reflection is important to us. It made us rethink what has happened, what was our feelings about it, is it good or bad, and how we could improve. Especially when youre feeling down, youd want to focus on making yourself positice again.. So reflecting will help you to think on how to improve yourself, your feelings and your actions, so bad things wont happen again in the future. True, this wont occur automatically just by realizing but it needs patience and practice (persevere, baby). And if your reflecting on good things, youd want it to last, the positivity, youd want it to last forever. And maybe you could recreate the positivity in the future as your good luck charm to ward off negativity... ;-) For my dear friends and schoolmates, im relearning about the things that we learnt in school. Sure, we learnt islam is beautiful. And i feel irony that im relearning it from the westerners. #relearn |
