Nothing Too Late If It's God's Perfect Timing :)

Nothing Too Late If It's God's Perfect Timing :)

Posted by Adibah Latif on July 27, 2020 in

Hello, Friends!

Don't rush yourself too much. You will reach it. Relax and enjoy the process. The world may pressure you with many things, but always remember that there’s perfect timing for everything. Sometimes it’s not about the destination, but it’s more on your journey while reaching the dreams you have in mind. It may take too long, but know that it will come to pass. Just learn to be patient.

Stop comparing yourself to others. Their timelines are very different than yours. God designed a unique journey only for you. He is your creator, and He knows what you truly need. So trust God more than your own efforts. Don’t be so occupied with your future that you are no longer living for today. Live in the present, stop thinking about the things that you thought you should reach by now. Appreciate what you have and where you are right now

Sometimes, God will teach you first for so many things so that you will be prepared for greater blessings. He will build up the foundation so that He can create something huge and solid within you. If you just wait for His perfect timing, you will enjoy more of His blessings. God’s timeline is very different from ours. He works in ways we cannot see, and He is full of surprises.

Do not base your standards according to what this world follows. Listen to God, for He knows you better. He will provide a lot of opportunities. Sometimes better than what you’ve been praying for. You just need to depend more on Him. God just wants us to trust Him even more. Keep your faith burning, and God will lead you to the path that He destined for you.

Do not lose hope. God will never leave you. He will fulfill all of His promises and He will give us a lot of chances. If you think that your past mistakes are the reason why you feel like everything is too late, then you are wrong. God will never stop doing good things in your life. He is the God of restoration, and His grace will be all around you.

God knows when you are ready. He will give what you’ve been asking for when you are prepared to receive it. Enjoy the process with God. Whatever it is that you wanted to do, seek His guidance, and He will lead you there. He holds the time, and He is the creator of the universe. You can always put your trust in Him.

I know sometimes it is hard to keep the focus on to be positive to everything that happened opposite to our desires but, please never give up on Him as He never gives up upon us. He always waited for us to call and ask Him. He hears every groan of our hearts. Have faith in Him.

Goodnight.

7 Beautiful Things I Learned from Failure

7 Beautiful Things I Learned from Failure

Posted by Adibah Latif on July 25, 2020 in

I'm just gonna straight to the point, try to make it short and simple as i can. Happy reading :)

1. If you really want something, failure isn’t going to stop you for long. You’re going to get up and try again. You’re going to learn from whatever mistakes you’ve made. You’re going to grow from your past experiences. You’re going to put even more effort into achieving your goals because quitting isn’t an option for you. You want it too badly to even consider slowing down.

2. No one is immune to failure. You might feel like your failure is a sign you aren’t good enough — but no one succeeds the first time they try something. You might not succeed the second or third time either. The people you admire weren’t born perfect in their fields. They worked their asses off. They didn’t stop until they got what the wanted. They are successful because of their failures, not in spite of them.

3. The biggest critic you will ever face is yourself. For the most part, the people around you will be supportive. They will praise you and encourage you and convince you that you can do anything you set your mind to. The person who is going to criticize you the most, who is going to make you wonder whether you’re a failure, is yourself. You have to overcome your own doubts if you want to succeed. You have to learn to ignore the pessimistic voice in the back of your head (the hardest part I may tell you ya, hm).

4. Everyone has a different definition of failure. You might consider yourself a failure, but everyone around you might consider you a success. You have to take a moment to ask yourself why you’re being so hard on yourself. Ask yourself whether you would consider a friend a failure if they’ve done what you have done — or whether you would be proud of them. Chances are, you’re being unnecessarily hard on yourself.

5. You’re allowed to wallow in self-pity. You’re allowed to be disappointed in yourself. You’re allowed to be upset about failing to reach a goal you had your heart set on reaching. But only for a little while. If you want to succeed, then you can’t live in the past. You have to focus on the present — and the future. You have to remember that your journey isn’t over. You can choose to keep going. You can choose to give it another shot.

6. You can ‘fail’ in one area of your life and succeed in another. Maybe you’re not making as much money as you want but you’re married with beautiful children. Or maybe it’s the opposite. Maybe you’re working your dream job and have moved into your dream apartment but you haven’t found love. You have to remember that even though you might feel like a failure in one part of your life, you’re succeeding in other areas. You’re not doing nearly as bad as you think.

7. You’re always going to want to take things a step further. After you get a raise, you’re going to want another raise. After you move into an apartment, you’re going to want a bigger apartment. You’re never going to be satisfied. As soon as you reach a goal, you’re going to create another goal, which is why you might feel like you aren’t meeting your goals. But your failure is only an illusion.

//Someone said to me never ruin today by thinking about a bad yesterday. Sometimes you have to stop being scared and just go for it. Either it will work out or it won't, that's life.

The Girl You Only Learn to Appreciate When She's Already Gone by Kirsten Corley

The Girl You Only Learn to Appreciate When She's Already Gone by Kirsten Corley

Posted by Adibah Latif on July 06, 2020 in

She wrote exactly to my unspoken thought which is so relatable to my current situation. And I thought of reposting hers. 

She's the type of girl you won't appreciate at first. Someone who will try so hard and always be available for you. The type of girl who is easy to read because she's honest, blunt and forward. It won't feel much when you have her time and attention because she gives it to you so easily.

She's the type of girl you won't get too excited about because you're never wondering about how she feels. She's the one who answers quickly. Initiate plans and always tries too hard.

At first, you're going to realize she is different from others that she deserves to be treated with the same respect you haven't even earned yet but she gives it away to you for free. You're going to treat her well and in return, she's going to treat you better and just continue to give it to you like it looks easy. Because to her, it is. She naturally thinks about others before herself and it's admirable.

Then suddenly this quality you admire and respect you'll take for granted. The calls you used to answer, the texts you'd respond to quickly suddenly there's a shift in you. You figured out that yes she's different to others but she's easy to read. You know what move she's going to make and what she's going to say even before she says it.

She's nice. She cares. She's isn't afraid to show it.

And then suddenly you become like the rest of them. Even though you swore you would never treat her as badly as others, you still break it. You realize no matter how you treat her, she doesn't react to it. She just keeps being exactly who she is and that's a different type of challenge for you because part of you want to test her and get to her. So you try to and now you're playing games and messing with her head and being a complete asshole because you want to see how much you can push her until she breaks.

She's not naive and she's not stupid. She knows exactly what you're doing and even though she loves you, even these type of girls get to the point where they get tired of trying so hard. She'll fade from your life a little slowly. Then, when you do think about her, you realize you haven't spoken in a while but when you reach out she still answers again quickly. There's a shift there.

Suddenly she's not caring to keep the conversation going. She suddenly stops trying, stops investing emotions and effort into you. She stops going out of her way because even girls like this realize some people aren't worth it.

Then, this girl who you spoke to every day slowly becomes stranger. The conversation is cordial but awkward. She's gone but in haunting close kind of way.

You'll see them together and you'll see how happy he makes her and you'll remember when that used to be you who had every bit of her time, attention and heart. She smiles bigger. She'll laugh harder. She'll hold his hand a little more tightly when you're around because the truth is she loved you, cared for you and did everything she supposed to and it still wasn't enough.

Then you start to miss her.

• You'll look back and realized you didn't appreciate her or value her the way she deserved because despite being shown the bad sides of you, you realize she always saw the good in you. 

• You'll look back to every lie and excuse you ever told and you realize how understanding and tolerant she was for you before. 

• You'll look back and realize she probably deserved so many sorry's but she never even asked for it or cared. 

• You'll look back at everything she ever did for you and you realize you didn't even invest half that effort into her. 

• You'll look back at how many times you said no but when you asked her to be somewhere or do something, she always said yes and was there. 

• You'll look back and realize you weren't kind to her and she never gave you a taste of your own medicine. 

• You'll look back and realize she really did love you unconditionally and support you in everything you did. 

• You'll look back and realize what you put her through yet she still came out wearing her heart on her sleeve loving really hard when you gave her every reason not to. 

• You'll look back and realize as she tried to prove she deserved you, she's the one that deserves better. And even if it takes a while to get over you because it will, she will love again. And it's going to be a person who realizes what they have when they have it. Not someone who has to lose her to realize her worth.

You'll find yourself in moments overcome with jealousy you don't even have the right to feel because it could have been you. It should have been you but she couldn't keep waiting for you to realize what she knew all along. She'll move on because she had to and she'll become happy because she deserves to. And she'll fall in love because finally, that love she gave to you carelessly finally came back to her.

I'll mark this date (1st Oct. 2019 | around 10pm)

This will be just a short and simple entry. Just to write about my second time experiencing an accident but this time with mild bleeding. Itulah orang dah pesan, bawa motor jangan mengelamun. Entah apa lah yang diba fikir masa kejadian haritu pun tak tahu. Sekelip mata je jadi, sedar sedar dah tergolek hahaha. Last time jatuh motor sebab nak elak terlanggar kereta yang buat u-turn tiba-tiba and this time jatuh motor sebab nak elak terlanggar lubang, lols. Tapi masa first time jatuh motor dulu serious sikit luka pun tak ada, maybe sebab landing atas rumput. Nasib baik tak tergolek masuk parit, dah la ada orang tengok masatu malu ya rabbi hahaha kalini dapat habuan laa. Tergolek kat tengah jalan macam drama hindutan tu 😂 Lepsastu ada sorang pakcik ni tolong. Pakcik ni paksa nak teman pi klinik tapi serious masatu tak terasa sakit mcm ada luka pun sebab tak nampak ada darah, baju tak terkoyak langsung cuma seluar je terkoyak sikit kat lutut. So, diba pun ingat takda laa darah darah ni semua. Bila pakcik ni desak suruh pi klinik, diba pun apa lagi.. cakap thank you sebab tolong, start motor terus jalan. Oh sebelum start motor tu check lampu motor, signal kiri kanan dulu bahahaha (sumpah bila ingat balik aku rasa kepala otak aku shot kot masatu, buang tebiat dok check lampu segala bagai hahahaha)

Dari kecik punya takut badan ada parut, punya jaga laa kan and sekarang kena terima hakikat yang siku dgn lutut dah ada parut, errrr! Apa-apa pun bersyukur sebab masih selamat and accident tak teruk. Paling rasa bersyukur sebab masa kejadian tu tak ada kereta lalu dari belakang. Hm, tak boleh nak imagine mcm mana kalau ada kereta masatu, fuhh. Selalunya laluan tu kereta paling banyak sebab laluan utama nk masuk Federal highway. Tapi sampai ke harini masih tak pasti sebab utama boleh jatuh selain nak elak langgar lubang tu. Baru 5 minit keluar dari kawasan rumah, takkan dah mengelamun? Tapi kalau tak mengelamun takkan tak perasan awal lubang tu? bukannya bawa laju pun masatu, dalam 50km/h je kut. Jarang ye diba tak alert atas jalan. Em, apa apa jelah. Benda kalau nak jadi, elak mcm mana pun tetap jadi kan. Yang penting dah selamat and luka pun dah kering tapii gerammm betul tengok parut ni. Bila ye nak hilang?? Sedihnya la tengok parut parut ni. Hopefully boleh recover cepat, ameen. Hati-hati ye awak awak semua. Okk bye 👋👋

Nota Dari Hati #Part4

Nota Dari Hati #Part4

Posted by Adibah Latif on October 22, 2019 in

Dear Diary,

That moment when you burst out crying alone in your room and then you realize that no one truly knows how unhappy you are right now because you don't want anyone to know. Yes, I admit that I used to hide every inch of my personal matter from everybody nowadays includes my close friends. I showed part of it but when they started to ask me, I'll remain silent. I feel so suck about my life but I have no choice than to live it. I need someone to motivate me, someone who believes in my abilities in whatever I do, someone to share my non-stop weird thoughts, someone to hear my bullshit rants, someone to cheer me up and makes me happy just like before. How I wish that "Someone" I mean here is you, Farhan. 

My Love, I miss you so badly, I miss the time when I actually meant something to you, I miss the nights when we used to stay up and just talk about everything, I miss the way you treat me which nobody has ever beat that. You have set a high benchmark for soulmate criteria in my life. This is why I hardly to forget you. You don't know how bad it hurts when you ignore me. Yes, I for once did mention not to reply to me but in the other way round there is a big hope that you will respond to my text. It is the worst feeling ever when not getting a reply back from someone you really want to talk to. Farhan, just because I let you go that doesn't mean I wanted to. I do it because of respecting your decision and I don't want you to hate me if I keep pushing you to stay. I really want to talk to you but I think I am disturbing you since I am nobody to you now. Can you imagine how hurt I feel when I think I'm not someone special to you anymore?  I don't have any power to make you stay with me but if I do, I'll make sure we'll be together until forever.

I keep blaming myself for you leaving me. I never once stop thinking of what is actually my fault. There must be some strong reasons for you leaving, not just because of you yourself. It's so sad how you were such a big part of me and now you are just gone. I am still the one who never gets tired to love you even though you gave me a thousand reasons not to do so. My Dearest Farhan, I'm just an ordinary human being, nothing extra in me. I've always wanted to give the best for our relationship. I put so much effort to be good and better in everything but the moment you decided to left me, that is when I know I failed. You make me think harder or best I can say that you make me become super extra overthinking since you left. Am I not good enough for you? or am I such a boring person to be with? I really want to know, hmm. 

I can't read what is in your heart if you don't tell me. I always in need reassurance from you when we were still together.  I need you to be transparent with me in everything so that we can avoid any misunderstanding. Being transparent to each other doesn't mean that I don't trust you. Seriously, I've told you so many many times that "assumption always kill a person".  You may directly ask me anything you like, even a small tiny tiny thing, I don't mind to answer your question at all. But yeah, nothing much I can do now since we both no longer being together hm.

To my forever favourite person, you have stole my heart since the very first time we know each other back in December 2012 and up until now my heart still belongs to you. Please stop thinking that I do this just for the sake of "nak jaga hati you". NO! I don't do this to jaga hati you, I do this because of myself. I'm genuinely in love with you. You can called me crazy, I don't care. I never fake my love towards you. I really hope you can see how pure my love is to you. I've always wanted to be the person who can make you happy and be happy with you and I'll always wait for you. Goodnight, Love of My Life.
