My Dear Boss who is also my Mentor

I remember it was January 2005, I came into this office to be interviewed by the owner of the company and also with another person who is the FOUNDER of the company I work with. Firstly I was greeted by these 2 bosses with smiles on their faces. I remember at that time, my ex boss who is my current boss punya insurance agent told me "Elina, this time I really have to let you go because En S@#*% is my big client but then again arrrr...that place bosses will throw files one you know"..and my reaction to that statement was "Arrrrr ok but the salary is ok for a single mom who is struggling bringing up her 2 kids without any financial help from her ex husband nor anyone". And so I took the challenge.
Didn't know if at that time I made the right decision because seriously at that time, I was "IT ZERO KNOWLEDGE". I mean if its just emailing and YM-ing,its ok but more than that...GOSH!OK back to the interview part,my big boss was joking and smiling while asking me questions and i felt so ease but then, suddenly his phone rang and he excused himself and left me and the other boss (the founder of the company). With his eyes looking straight into my eyes, his smiles just died, he asked me "So tell me, what do you know about this company? do you know how to do presentation slides? Know how to do proposals?" and I said " Im a fast learner and I can learn."
Deep in my heart, I said " Oh No..my life is gonna be hell here". Well first 6 months, he really drilled me. Whatever I did was just not right to him. At first I really hate him but then, I said why hate him and be miserable. Why not learn from the mistakes and probably I can be like him. Oh I forgot to mention..he is a very simple man but he is a GENIUS and a bumi genius.
Day by day I learn, and tried to cope with him and do things at his pace. It was tough and then I realised that he started having trust with my work. I began to respect him day by day and I told myself, what he taught me is something I can never learn anyway. Keeping with the new technologies thats growing too fast.
And now, I think I'm not so bad with my IT KNOWLEDGE and I love my job and sort of addicted to my job. Lucky I dont have a husband or a boyfriend coz with the way I work now, no man is crazy enough to date me. I go home at 8pm to have dinner with my dad n my 2 kids and after putting the kids to bed at 10.30pm, i would run to the office to do my work till 4-5am. I would go home and come back again at 8.30am. heheheh.
And till today I'm still learning and I'm proud to say, TO MY BOSS IF U EVER READ THIS BLOG ONE DAY, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY " EN AZLI, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART THANK YOU FOR ALL THE THINGS YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME AND STILL TEACHING ME. I LOVE N RESPECT YOU AS MY BOSS AND MY MENTOR...THANK U

Where is the justice

"And among His signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that you may dwell in tranquility with them, and he has put love and mercy between your (hearts)..." Qu'ran 30:21
"I recommend that you treat women with goodness. The best of you are those who treat their wives the best." Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him)
Although Islam promises women protection from such problems, the reality in many Muslim homes is different.The most common form of abuse is emotional and mental abuse.degradation, humiliation, insults, ridicule, name-calling, and criticism; false accusations and blaming her for everything; ignoring, dismissing, or ridiculing her needs; neglect and the silent treatment; spying on her; telling her she is a failure and will go to hell; twisting Islamic teachings to make her feel worthless because she is a woman; restricting her access to transportation, health care, food, clothing, money, friends, or social services; physical and social isolation; extreme jealousy and possessiveness; lying, breaking promises, destroying trust; etc. Emotional abuse can take place in public or at home.
Although it's completely contrary to the example of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, the Muslim community nonetheless tends to dismiss the seriousness of mental abuse, rationalizing it as a petty argument between husband and wife, and saying it's not serious unless he hits her. In reality, mental abuse does severe psychological harm to many Muslim women. It destroys their self-esteem and makes them question their self-worth; some have mental breakdowns and go insane.
Tragically, some Muslim men actually use Islam to "justify" their abusive behavior. Focusing on rituals, considering themselves to be Islamically knowledgeable, and disregarding the spirit of Islam, they wrongly use the Qur'anic verse that says men are the protectors and maintainers of women to go on power trips, demand total obedience, and order their wives around. They disregard the Islamic requirement for the head of the household to consult with other members of the family when making decisions.
Its been 4 years since my ex husband and i are no longer together. Today we are supposed to go to court and he is supposed to give me my complete freedom and its been 2 years I have been going in and out of syariah court to fight for my freedom but to no avail. Sometimes i wonder, do i need to stand in front of the Judge and tell him that i will change my religion(though in my heart, I'm a strong believer of Allah and the religion) in order for me to get my freedom?
In total, 10 years I have been mental tortured and abused..and the worst part is I'm fighting on my own. All alone. I have no more strength to fight at times but I kept fighting as I have always been a fighter.
I have been begging his mom and what did I get..humiliation! I have begged the people in the religious Department and what did i get..nothing.
Oh Allah, You have never broken Your promise. Today for the first time in my life, I put up my 2 hands and beg You oh Allah, I curse Ahmad Rizal Abd Aziz the son of Faridah Bujang and Abdul Aziz...the day he was born till the day he dies..show him Your wrath. Burn him in Your Hell fire.

Love and Sorrow

Here the swallow's the other half (wife) is injured and the condition is fatal. She was hit by a car as she swooped low across the road

He brought her food and attended to her with love and compassion

He brought her food again but was shocked to find her dead.
He tried to move her......a rarely-seen effort for swallows!

Aware that his sweetheart is dead and will never be with him again, sadness filled his eyes and sorrow felt in his spirit

He stood beside her as his heart weeps for his only love .

Finally aware that she would never return to him, he
stood beside her body with untold pain and despair.

Millions of people cried after watching this picture in
America and Europe and even in India . It is said that the
photographer sold these pictures for a nominal fee to the
most famous newspaper in France .All copies of that
newspaper were sold out on the day these pictures were published.
And many people think animals don't have a brain or feelings?

Give 100%....SINCERELY

A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her. The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed.
The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised.
That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn't sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble.
Moral of the story: If you don't give your hundred percent in a relationship, you'll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent.. This is applicable for any relationship like love, employer-employee relationship,friendship etc., Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully
