Verily, man is in loss

If you love someone, do tell.

If you miss someone, do tell.

If you wonder where is that someone who once graced the lanes of your past, do tell.

Because they would never know.

You would be surprised at how much people miss out.

You think it's obvious enough but often it is not.

.

It is the same if you are hurt, do tell.

If you are sad, do tell.

If you are burdened, do tell.

Because again, people will never know.

I am thankful that there are still people that love me enough to let me know these things and ask me of these things. Even though sometimes our mistakes it is not something we want to hear, it is indeed what we need to hear.

People are never perfect all the time, we just have our shining moments sometimes.

So try to reflect everything that is said to you. Being defensive is only for guilty people.

Words like, "Biarlah!" or "Suka hati lah!" or "Sibuk je!" or "Tau dah la!" are all different versions of the incurable ego defending itself.

Of course, we know the difference between right and wrong but we are forgetful beings. So pry open your heart and be patient a little for the advises coming your way. Not all are good advises but you have to sieve through everything. That is the least you can do.

As for the people giving advise, please do not falter from the effort. InsyaAllah, it'll get through. Someday.

Just remember this:

By time,

Verily, man is in loss,

Except those who believe and do righteous deeds and exhort one another to Truth and exhort one another to patience.

~Al Asr, Quran

So if we don't be there for each other, isn't that a sure recipe for disaster?
