LIFE MUST GO ON

(Source: mystandards, via primaranisa)

Woke up today at 3.30 AM in the morning, since I decided to sleep at 9 PM yesterday. Well, intended to continue my audit workdone but I thought I should pray Tahajud first. Trust me it such a good feeling if everyday you constantly doing that.

Still not sure, whether this job is my passion or not. However, I would stick to my first determination; “sincerely working for 1 year as an auditor”. I always say every morning, that I work for God, I work to get halal income, I work to widen my knowledge, so I can be meaningful to other people in my life. This is what makes me strong passing a lot of hard things each day.

O, I’m craving for burger suddenly! :)

Anyway, currently I am in out of town engagement. I’m staying in a hotel which belongs to a Japanese - Indonesian couple. So, the breakfast is served in Japanese. Well, this is why I still interested with my current job, it always give me new experience.

Sunday, 20 April 2013. Today, I sacrifice my weekend. Due to finalisation of my engagement, I have to come to the office from 10 AM to 5 PM. In fact, now it’s 8.30 PM, and I am still here.

Let’s just enjoy it! :)

“Why getting married should need a lot of money and expensive, while divorce is cheap? While, Allah SWT encourages a woman and a man to get married (for good purpose of course), and hates divorce.” - Ustad Jefry, a prominent religious among Indonesians

I definitely agree with his statement, although I’m still not in the stage where I can think about my own marriage. So many couple postpone to get married, since everyone mostly think that it is associated with wedding and celebration. Even luxury and dazzling decoration. Thus, they have to collect a lot of money first, then get married and celebrate.

Personally, I will ask this, what is the difference betweeen “Getting married” and “Wedding”? For me, who is very limited in terms knowledge of anything, would say that first, getting married is more to alteration of status from single to married. Second, getting married is when relationship between a woman and a man is legalised, and within followed by responsibility and long term commitment. While, wedding, is a celebration of getting married.

Can you see which is the term stating the essence of the bond between a man and a woman?

I am a Moslem. In Islam, there are specific requirements when a couple wants to get married:

1.) The man; a Moslem, mature, not insane, do not have more than 4 wives, etc.

2.) The woman; a Moslem, not a wife of another man, etc.

3.) The process of getting married, called “Akad Nikah”, which all of required attendees confirmed the vows of the couple

4.) Leader of the process of getting married, called “Wali” (have to be a male), where usually comes from the family or prominent person, etc.

5.) and 2 witnesses

Imagine, this process would not take more than an hour and the cost will be not more than serving foods and beverages for the attendees. But soon after, you are legally becoming a wife and a husband of one another.

While the wedding or the celebration, only aim to celebrate and inviting people who the couple or the family knows well. If we take the positive side, it could be the place for reuniting and deepening the relationship of families, friends, colleagues, etc. But, it will take more cost. If the couple of the family doesn’t have sufficient money to celebrate the wedding, it would not fail the marriage, since its not in getting married process requirement.

There is a strong excitement everytime I help people. I don’t know why. I just realised this in my last year of college period. It always cure my sadness when I do that and very electrifying knowing that there are still so many people who are less fortunate than me.

I’m very proud of my friends who have already concerned about this and make into a real action.

As helping each other can take many forms, maybe I should start increasing my role and exploring any opportunities that will provide my intention.

Wish me luck :)

My morning flight.
I woke up at 3 AM today. My office scheduled me to do stock take in client site, which is located in Surabaya. I’m glad, they assigned me with Associate 1 (one level above me). In fact, she was my senior in my college and I have known her. So no need to feel uncomfortable. Wish me luck for my assignment! :)

All at sudden, a pet comes trough my mind recently. I watched one of tv channel, they were discussing about cats. I had been there before, begging my parents to have cat or rabbits. I had a rabbit twice, it always ended up with a co conclusion that I’m not good with taking care animals. Nevertheless, my mind is still denying; that the rabbits were quite weak. I want to have a beautiful cat. Of course my parents do not allow it. They know I’m working now, and its quite impossible to take care of the cat. However, I’m still wishing to have a cat like one in the picture :)
