Stop and ponder



Busy with our work, 
we fail to notice our baby is a toddler now

Tight up with tight schedule
We hardly had times for our spouse

Trying to reach our office on time
We hardly notice the waving branches along the way

Finishing our assignments
We didn't realize our office mates are hungry for our time
   to share her/his problems with us

Working so hard to please our boss
We forget to please our family
   with precious time spend on a holiday

Working hard to make more money for our family
We fail to realize they value our time more
    to be spend with them

If only our kids can pay
to get a few hours of our time
they are willing to pay
to get back their long lost parents

What a poor life
if it is judged 
on how much money we make

What a sad story
to give expensive stuffs as present
when what our family need
is our precious time with them
full of laughter
full of sweet memories

Presents will be forgotten
presents will perish 
but sweet memories will remain 
to our death bed

Appreciate what we have
while we still have it
while we still deserve it
or it will be taken away
leaving us devastated
realizing we have been chasing untouchable rainbows all these while
when beautiful flowers in front of us
wilt away without us realizing
its very existance 

Don't wait
until it's too late



May Allah bless us all. Ameen.
