In many things I am fussy.
But there is one thing which I am quite carefree: faith.
Religion doesn't really fascinate me in the way the study of religion is. I am a Muslim who doesn't really care about God. Sometimes I think He exists, sometimes I just don't want to think about it. For all I care, it's not really the truthfulness of any religion that fascinates me, it's how these religions functions and how they affect the society.

Well done.
I would like to say I'm pleased with the service done by Pejabat Pendaftaran Daerah di Selayang last two weeks when I'm bringing my sister to do her IC as well as updating mine. Really friendly staffs, and quick , convenient service.All done in 10 minutes, on a Monday. I remember my time when I waited hours to do my IC at Ipoh.
Those were dark times.

A Thing Called Self
Human, we can never escape the fact that selfishness is a norm for us.
Selflessness, instead, is a rarity and of value.
So many times we use " I" in our lives- in our thinking, and in our actions. This is our self-concept. Our selves are so important to us. To the more religious people, the existence of "soul" makes each individual entities so precious, so...tempted.
Is thinking about one's own self wrong?
I never said that, and I will never ever imply anything with that kind of sentiment.
This blog simply questions. It never provides answers, don't you realise?
This is because People are so different I myself am never comfortable with one-size-fits-all attitude.
It depends on our own selves. How we make light with who we are. People can suggest this and that as the way you are supposed to live, to ascertain meanings in life , but it's us who make the call. Who chooses.
I have chosen mine. Right or wrong, it rarely matters to me. I've thought about it, and I've chosen it. There are many other options available, some easy breezy, some highly risky. I've chosen what I think I wanted to be, not something I should be. I blame my narcisstic, vain, and rebellious personality here. I embraced my relatively narcissistic attitude, my vain demeanor and my rebellious gene. And I've chosen.
Am I a better person now? Nah. Am I happy? Nah. I've been happier. But am I comfortable in my current skin? Relatively, yes.
