Episodes of the past are bygone, sadness cannot retrieve them, melancholy cannot put things right, and depression will never bring the past back to life. This is because the past is non-existent, let bygones be bygones.

Do not live in the nightmares of the past or under the shade of what you have missed. Save yourself from the ghostly apparition of the past. Do you think you can return the sun to the east, the baby to its mother's womb, milk to the udder, or tears to the eye? Do you think you can reverse the wheels of history?

A good article, and it came rather timely, because I can make myself go crazy obsessing about the past sometimes. Haha.

On another note, Husband told me yesterday that he bought for me something for mother's day, but it's not here yet. Bought online, he said. I'm quite proud of him for 2 reasons ah, firstly that he bought something online, and methinks this is his first time, coz he was very kancheong and kept calling me the other day asking what is shipping address, what is billing address, and such.

Secondly, I love that he's putting in effort! Last year I got nothing, the year before I got a bouquet of flowers. I wonder what I'm getting this year. Heheh.

Honestly I didn't ask for anything, just want him to make doa for me daily to be a good Muslimah jer. But getting presents is good, muchmuch appreciated... Even got Hadith for it tau -"Exchange gifts, as that will lead to increasing your love to one another." [Al-Bukhaari]

Insha'Allah =D

Last night before we slept, he said "I cannot wait for that thing to reach lah"

I ALSO LAH, HUSBAND! Hahaha.
