teaching
Life teaches us to stay light like the air
Even when lightning tear off our sky
or thunder storms our silent bay
we are still nothing, nay
we are still nothing
and why bother to overly react?
life teaches us to be strong like the old tree
stay still, unshaken
she lets the children climb up her branch
dont mind if its cracked
she has given the best for each time she grows
no matter when she cut off
or die in time
she'll be ready
Life teaches us to be honest like children laugh
free, open, unaffraid..
their clarity inviting the light
made the children so curiously happy
even in the dark
Life teaches us to be down to earth...
like..
the earth
to spread out
and accept
try to be fertile
and safe
a sanctuary for the plants, for the people
for the ships, and animals
for the kinds, for the culprit
Life teaches us to seek who we are
since we are living in a beauty of rhyme
since we are involving in unexpected game
since we are challenged in unknown territories
who we are,
what is life,
why we are here?
Life teaches us to learn and find the answer

salam.
nice piece of writing, albeit a few grammar errors here n there. mind if i b ur proof reader? : )
just joking. anyway, selamat!
wassalam..
thanks.. off course, please be my proof reader, i hope its for free..:))
salam.
definitely it's for free coz life is about doing everything for Allah sake. what say u?
of course.. but not always free.. :)) however, there are some areas that has more mundane perspective.. rite? :)) even Rasulullah, he's a trader..an honest one. I mean.. there are things in life, world life, that has its own rule. and lucky us, Islam and Muhammad Saw and his early follower, has provided us with perfect example..
salam.
every game we play in this world surely has its own rules. nevertheless, that's not the point i'm getting to here. what i want to imply is our inner self, which is pure n sacred, deals only with Allah. supposedly la. but then, being mere mortals, we can't run away from the fact that worldly affair will, one way or the other, affect our thoughts, perceptions, etc, etc, which in turn, will not make us sincere in our undertaking. it will tend to be an obligation, or perhaps just going with the flow, or maybe taking everthing in our stride though we may not agree with ideas, policy, bla bla bla, being executed.
hope u do follow what i'm 'blabbering' here..
the moral is: it's never easy to be a mortal.
layan....
salaam..
we are mortal and immortal ..
its not easy to be both..:))
and being fair to both
salam. y arent u writing anymore?
