Problems and suffering.

All human beings in this world will facing with problem and suffering. Whether we like it or not, every human can't run away from that 2 words. The only things make it different is how they figure it out. The fact that they exist would indicate that they definitely have a role to play in our lives.If you continue to do what you have always done, you will always get what you've got. Most of us just hate pain and suffering. So do I. But it is when we understand more about it that we may be more able to handle it when it comes. Throughout my life as a medical student, i felt a lot of problems and suffering before i will end it with excellent medical skills and knowledge. I remember many years back when i attended a motivation seminar in one camp. At one session, we were asked very obvious questions or so we thought. " WHO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE PROBLEMS, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HANDS". As a human being, the answer was so obvious...:-) .All of us raised our hands. The instructor then told us that each day while going to work he would pass a place where all the people "residing" there do not have any problems at all. And he asked us whether we would like to join these people since we had all raised our hands. We thought he was joking. But he continued to tell us that these people don't have the morning newspaper to worry about, no food problems, no work problems, no marriage problems, no financial problems, in fact no problems at all!!!..All the statements that he told us sounds weird and i was thinking that kind of area was in psychiatry ward. Hehehe..Our curiosity and interest were heightened and finally he told us that the place was the cemetery and all the people were dead. At that time i voice out my opinion. I said, problems and sufferings are an unpleasent but necessary part of being alive. It is the price we pay for being alive. I agreed that dead people don't feel any problems but they have soul form suffering or pain from the sin that they already made throughout their life. To me the gift of suffering and problems will bring me closer o ALLAH SWT. To teach me to be strong when i weak. To be brave when i afraid. To be wise in the midst f confusion and to let go that which i can no longer hold. In summary, the purpose of suffering is to repair that which is faulty in a man's personality and become more mature. As a take home message in this fasting month, we need to be more thankful to ALLAH in what ever tragedy has happened in our life. The most important note that i always remind my self and to other close family members and friends as well, we should always back to our creator (ALLAH) to get bless and may ALLAH bestow to all of us with full of Hidayah in the month of RAMADHAN al MUBARAK...DU'A to ALLAH SWT is the key of life when we suffering from problems. Then, we should work hard to solve the problem with logic thinking..RENUNG_RENUNGKAN LAH..

End of my Medical School

I will end my medical school posting with surgical discipline. I'm too excited to finished it with excellent knowledge. Unfortunately, the war is not over yet for study. I have to complete my MBBS degree by attending my Professional exam part 3 whcih involve all he clinical disciplines. This is the tougher or killer exam in my life before i can be somebody. As a medical student, i have to acquired all the basic knowledge in medical and surgical based in order to be a competent doctor in future. Along my journey in medical school, there has been much tragedy in my life; at least half of it actually happened. The tragedy of life is not that man loses, but that he almost wins.Religion is not something separate and apart from ordinary life. It is life -- life of every kind viewed from the standpoint of meaning and purpose: life lived in the fuller awareness of its human quality and spiritual significance.There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. Most people can look back over the years and identify a time and place at which their lives changed significantly. Whether by accident or design, these are the moments when, because of a readiness within us and a collaboration with events occurring around us, we are forced to seriously reappraise ourselves and the conditions under which we live and to make certain choices that will affect the rest of our lives. To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life. All men have a sweetness in their life. That is what helps them go on. It is towards that they turn when they feel too worn out. Without some goals and some efforts to reach it, no man can live. Life is a process. We are a process. The universe is a process.I learned from my mistake and what has happened throughout of my life was a good lesson to my self. That's a lot of memories that i can't let it go in my mind. The sweetness will make me laugh but the bad and sadness will make me to understand more on how difficult life look like before i can be somebody. May ALLAH strengthen my IMAN and bless my life. The blissful and enjoyable moment in our life is come from almighty ALLAH SWT. Therefore, i would like to pray a Du'a from ALLAH for giving me a best of luck in order to preparing my self mentally and emotionally as well knowledgeable in medicine to make sure i will get the brightness or brilliant clinical skills and pass my exam with excellent results nshALLAH.
