A DAY WITH FAMILY MEMBERS

My brothers, Zarimi and Zulnizam in a car. I was sitting at the back seat.  Zulnizam drove the car, and Zarimi hold his child, Sofea and me, was capturing this photo. ^^ Let guess where we were going..




Alhamdulillah, safely arrived at Pantai Melawi, Kelantan. 
I enjoyed playing a kite until I didn't gave my brother chance 
to play with it. haha.. 
My younger sister took this picture. Is she pro enough?







My big brother was preparing our lunch. He grilled pieces of chicken and fishes for us.It was a saving when we prepared the food from home rather than bought it. 

WHAT FAMILY MEANS TO ME


What is definition of family?
It can’t be defined easily
The strong love in a family is extraordinary
Family should be cherished like a little girl would cherish her diary
The true meaning of a loving family won’t be found in any dictionary

Very expensive and costly
Some people wonder daily
Others back in Africa think dreamily
Of what it feels like to have family
While others take it for granted not knowing it can be lost easily

A family is a strong bond
It’s more special than a diamond and beyond
It’s a strong thing that cant broken
A definite meaning of family is still unspoken
Your family is the start of everything it’s your ignition
In a family there is no status or high position
When it comes to your family there is no limit to love
You guys belong like a hand and a glove



Your family members are your friends
After everyone leaves they will still be with you until the end
They are part of you; to you they are most beautiful garden
Its something you will want forever it’s never a burden
With everything you do they are right behind you
Some families fall apart yes its true
But there love was weak
They were never strong so to speak

You never know when you are going to go away
So take the time to show how special your family is today
Make sure you are with them day to day
And don’t you ever go astray
A loving family is what everyone desires
The love for your family should be an undying fire

My family and I during my brother, Zakri's wedding day. Actually not all my siblings are in this photo. My five brothers do not present in this photo except for my youngest brother, Adam who was sitting next to me. So, which one is me? we are siblings and we have the same look. haha..

The Value of Friendship

I have a lot of friends. Since I was born until now, new friends keep coming into my life. It is easy to find a friend but it is not easy to find a best friend. I can say that it is hard to find a good friend instead a good friend is someone can you rely on him/her.
Why good friends are so important
A lot of research has been done looking into the benefits of friendship, and the research has found exactly what you might expect. It turns out that the better quality relationships you have; the more likely you are to be happy. Therefore it’s good for your happiness to be a great friend to someone and to have a group of good friends supporting you. But it can be hard to pinpoint exactly what makes a good friend.

Signs of a good friend
Friends will come and go in your life, but more important than how long a friendship lasts, is that a good friend will love you for who you are. The way you can tell the sign of a good friend is by looking at the actions they take –big and small – that show they care.

Some common signs of a good friend include

·         someone who will support you no matter what
·         someone you can trust and who won’t judge you
·         someone who won’t put you down or deliberately hurt your feelings
·         someone who is kind and has respect for you
·         someone who will love you because they choose to, not because they feel like they should
·         someone whose company you enjoy
·         showing loyalty
·         being trustworthy and willing to tell you the truth, even when it’s hard
·         someone who can laugh when you do
·         someone who is willing to stick around when things get tough
·         someone who makes you smile
·         someone who is there to listen
·         someone who will cry when you cry.

How to be a good friend
If you want to do all or many of the things listed above for someone you care about, you’re already a good friend. It’s also common though, to not know exactly what to do or say to be there for someone. Some practical things you can do to be there for a friend include:
Listen. Listening is so important not to underestimate, but it can be hard to do. The best way to listen is to try and understand the situation from your friends’ point of view. If you aim to do this, you’ll naturally find yourself beginning to ask the right sort of questions and they will appreciate having someone who really cares about how they feel and what they’re going through. You don’t have to have all the answers, and you shouldn’t assume your friend wants advice – they might just want to talk so that they can work out what they’re going to do themselves.
Ask them what they need. If you’re worried about someone and you want to be there for them, just ask them what they need- that way you know what they find helpful during tough times, and you can be there in a way that’s most useful to them.
Get physical. Smiles and hugs are a great way to show friends that they’re not alone, that you’re there for them, and that they are important.
Keep in touch. Even if you guys aren’t nearby each other, making an effort to keep in touch through facebook, emails, texts and calls will show your friend you are there for them.
Tell them how you feel. You don’t have to make a big deal of it all the time but sometimes there are moments where letting someone know that they’re important to you through something you say, can make a big difference to how someone is feeling.
Get the facts. If your friend has a medical condition, or a mental health issue, a good way to offer support is to learn about what they’ve been diagnosed with. Taking an interest in what they’re going through shows that you care, and that you’re planning to stick around no matter what’s going on.

Be willing to make a tough call. If you think the safety of your friend is at risk, you might need to act without their consent and get help (see the sidebar for where you can seek help). It can be a hard choice particularly when you’re worried about their reaction, but remember that you are acting because you care and you don’t want them to be hurt.

10 thing that authentic leaders do on a regular basis

Here are 10 things that authentic leaders do on a regular basis:
  1. They speak their truth. In business today, we frequently 'swallow our truth'. We say things to please others and to look good in front of The Crowd. Authentic leaders are different. They consistently talk truth. They would never betray themselves by using words that are not aligned with who they are. This does not give anyone a license to say things that are hurtful to people. Speaking truth is simply about being clear, being honest and being authentic.
  2. They lead from the heart. Business is about people. Leadership is about people. The best leaders wear their hearts on their sleeves and are not afraid to show their vulnerability. They genuinely care about other people and spend their days developing the people around them. They are like the sun: the sun gives away all it has to the plants and the trees. But in return, the plants and the trees always grow toward the sun.
  3. They have rich moral fiber. Who you are speaks far more loudly than anything you could ever say. Strength of character is true power - and people can feel it a mile away. Authentic leaders work on their character. They walk their talk and are aligned with their core values. They are noble and good. And in doing so, people trust, respect and listen to them.
  4. They are courageous. It takes a lot of courage to go against the crowd. It takes a lot of courage to be a visionary. It takes a lot of inner strength to do what you think is right even though it may not be easy. We live in a world where so many people walk the path of least resistance. Authentic leadership is all about taking the road less traveled and doing, not what is easy, but what is right.
  5. They build teams and create communities. One of the primary things that people are looking for in their work experience is a sense of community. In the old days, we got our community from where we lived. We would have block parties and street picnics. In the new age of work, employees seek their sense of community and connection from the workplace. Authentic leaders create workplaces that foster human linkages and lasting friendships.
  6. They deepen themselves. The job of the leader is to go deep. Authentic leaders know themselves intimately. They nurture a strong self-relationship. They know their weaknesses and play to their strengths. And they always spend a lot of time transcending their fears.
  7. They are dreamers. Einstein said that, "Imagination is more important than knowledge." It is from our imaginations that great things are born. Authentic leaders dare to dream impossible dreams. They see what everyone else sees and then dream up new possibilities. They spend a lot of time with their eyes closed creating blueprints and fantasies that lead to better products, better services, better workplaces and deeper value. How often do you close your eyes and dream?
  8. They care for themselves. Taking care of your physical dimension is a sign of self-respect. You can't do great things at work if you don't feel good. Authentic leaders eat well, exercise and care for the temples that are their bodies. They spend time in nature, drink plenty of water and get regular massages so that, physically, they are operating at planet-class levels of performance.
  9. They commit to excellence rather than perfection. No human being is perfect. Every single one of us is a work in progress. Authentic leaders commit themselves to excellence in everything that they do. They are constantly pushing the envelope and raising their standards. They do not seek perfection and have the wisdom to know the difference. What would your life look like if you raised your standards well beyond what anyone could ever imagine of you?
  10. They leave a legacy. To live in the hearts of the people around you is to never die. Success is wonderful but significance is even better. You were made to contribute and to leave a mark on the people around you. In failing to live from this frame of reference, you betray yourself. Authentic leaders are constantly building their legacies by adding deep value to everyone that they deal with and leaving the world a better place in the process.
