...all endings are also beginnings. We just don't know it at the time. 1
"No life is a waste," the Blue Man said. "The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone." 50
Holding anger is a poison. It eats you from inside. We think that hating is a weapon that attacks the person who harmed us. But hatred is a curved blade. And the harm we do, we do to ourselves. 141
"That was my choice. A world of weddings, behind every door. Oh, Eddie, it never changes, when the groom lifts the veil, when the bride accepts the ring, the possibilities you see in their eyes, it's the same around the world. They truly believe their love and their marriage is going to break all the records." 157
...that each affects the other and the other affects the next and the world is full of stories, but the stories are all one. 196
Another beautiful and meaningful book by
Mitch Albom - the five people you meet in heaven.
It was a boring book. At least that was what I thought, after reading it halfway. It's just that long and heavy feeling of sadness that I did not like, it made me restless. But as it ends, it is like a different story altogether. I learnt lots, but the main lesson learnt is to
not to live with regrets. Things are the way they are as they are best to be fated that way. There is a reason behind everything. If we were to regret something which happen in our lives, then that sadness will haunt us. And if that happens, there is no one else to be blamed other than ourselves. There is nothing useless or meaningless in this world. We can choose to be happy. We can choose to appreciate what we have in life. It's in your hands. Of course there are moments when we feel down. Take sometime to recuperate. Take control. Move on.
And I'm glad I did what I did last nite. It's ok if things dont turn out like the way I wished, I have no control over the outcomes, it's up to Allah. But I would never want to look back and regret not doing anything like what happened before. Let me try to be the BEST that I can be. Everyday is a new beginning :)
