We were quite surprised by Aqlan’s confession when we reached home tonight.
Something about unfulfilled dreams?
“Mama, I pray many times but all my wish didn’t come true.”
“Tell me what you wished for Abang?”
“I wish about everything!”
“And what’s that?”
“First, I want to be a rock star.” Hmm.... now we wonder why he didn’t get his wish.. yet. You are four Abang! Haha.
“.. and then I wish for cars..”
“But we’ve already bought you cars..”
“Yeah, but I want big car with remote controller!” Oh wow, that’s the first. Never heard of this from him before.
“and the Iron man dvd.” Oh.. the wish list keep getting longer..
Only if we could grow money on trees and life would be fantastic for the kids.. and the parents too. Especially the parents I think.
“Then Abang, you need to pray hard and have lots of patience.”
And this advice is not only for the kids, but for us adults especially.
I remember my late father used to say that ‘sabar itu tiada had’. It took lots of hard work to be such a patience person, that is why there’s a saying ‘sabar itu separuh daripada iman’.
“Allah surely loves those who are the Sabireen.”
Hardhips and ease are all trials for the mankind. Everything that happens to us, good or bad is for our own benefit.
Our wish is to provide a safe and happier home for the family where good values grow everyday and learning never stopped.
Amin.
