Yesterday I read kakak R's blog. And this is the story that I got from her entries. It is a nice story, a story which I want everyone of us to think about . Thanks Along sebab bagi green light nak publish story tu kat sini!
There’s a small bird from a warmer area felt bored about what he had in his area. Tired and hating the warmer climate, he decided to journey north, seeking greener pastures and cooler air. After a long trip, the whether changed slowly, becoming cooler and milder. Feeling freshed, the small bird did not realised that its snowing and snows begins to fall and stick on his feathers. He became heavier and in the end, fell on the ground, topped with snow. Weak, cold and hopeless, thinking that he surely will die now, he saw a big strong buffalo came to his way. "Why oh why its a buffalo? Its old and useless for me. He cant help me in this situation", cried the small bird. The buffalo said nothing. Instead, he urinated on him, angered the bird further. Not only that, the buffalo also discharged his poo on the poor bird-sending him cursing everywhere. After all this, the buffalo left and the bird now feeling even surer that he will die soon.
However, slowly the bird feels better and warmer. Finally he managed to shake all the snow off and take off. Because he was so happy, he forgets how he was "freed" and he just fly higher and higher. He even sings and sometimes dances on the earth.
Suddenly, there’s a kitten appeared out of nowhere. He’s attracted to the bird and was very much facinated with him. He slowly tried to play with the bird and the bird welcomes him. The bird was happy because he’s freed and get a new friend. They play along nicely; the kitten plays with the bird in his paws. Both were happy…for a while, until the bird suddenly snatched the bird and eats him…
Well, need to sleep now. Tomorrow is going to be a big day. To report for duty.To start "serving the people". Think about that story…apply it to your daily life, situations surrounding your place and world. Open up, open your eyes and mind. Cast your memory back, further back and try to visualise the future.
What lies ahead is what you’re now.

I realized that I am lucky to have what I have now. Deep inside my heart, I really hope that everything that I have would not drift me away from the right path, eventually. I know that I am no good. I make mistakes, learn, unlearn and relearn.
To those people out there 1) my families 2) you-know-who-you-are and 3) friends, thanks a lot for all the loves. I appreciate every single thing that you all have gave me. No matter happy-or-sad, good-or-bad, difficulty-or-ease, we are still together. I am what I am now because of you people.
P/s: To Along, you are a very good author. I know that u really have strong work ethics, which I think everyone of us should own. I hope I can write on this issue later- strong work ethics! Thanks again Dr Rahimi Razak;)
