sometimes you just have to let things go.

"if only people were honest about how they feel"
maybe some things were better left unsaid
maybe its fine to give second or even third, chance
maybe i was the problem
maybe its okay for me to learn how to trust again

how guys can be so deceiving

the hardest thing for me to do is to move on from the past mistakes he made. because the denial ive been living in. i cant accept this. hes been trying hard to make me forget, hes been putting so much effort to win my trust again. but the problem is, no matter how much he tries, no matter how much effort he puts in. i may be happy at that moment. but only at that time. because when i came home, when i came across the thought of it, the past mistake echoes in my head. like a flashback. and i instantly be furious again. 

i really dont know what the future holds, but i am for sure want this one to be in mine.

but, for the time being, if he chooses to stay, and still try, i dont know where this is going, honestly. i dont know if one day, i can finally forgive, and forget. 

how i wish i was a forgiver. how i wish i can forget things i dont want to remember. dwelling in the past wont take you anywhere. i know, sometimes you just have to let things go.

The lion is alone no more 🫧

Dear 🫧 This writing is supposed to only thank you for the dinner treat. But here goes what’s on my mind.  I have always known that I have so much love in me, but I have no one to give it to. A significant other. Until I found you. You want it. Thank you for wanting me to love you. Thank you for choosing me, allowing me to pour all my love that I have, to you. I feel chosen and accepted. For the longest of time, I thought I am hard to handle. Especially when everyone said that I am a strong woman. Who can live with no men. But they forget, lumrah manusia yang mempunyai keinginan hidup untuk berpasangan. Bukankah itu yang dicipta Tuhan. “Dan Kami telah ciptakan kamu berpasang-pasangan”  Surah An-Naba: 8 — Yes I am strong, and I am a whole. I don’t need a man to complete me. Because I am complete, myself. But I do need a man to complement me.  I thought I must be aware of men. Cannot let them know that you’re vulnerable. But you show me otherwise. That it is okay to trust a...

"Tengok TikTok Tun Laila, dia dah explain"

Assalamualaikum and hi. Two months have passed, and I just got the time to write. So I can recall and relive the moment.  Some day in February 2024, while I was casually waiting in front of the Immigration, Putrajaya for settling my client's case, like always, I used the time to record a video. The day before that, a case went viral for the Federal Court's decision; Nik Elin v Government of Kelantan. As someone with law background, my followers always ask me on viral cases. I usually refused to comment nor create content about it since I understand an opinion from an outsider can affect the proceeding of a case, even though you are a lawyer. At least that's what I have experienced myself as a greenhorn. But this time, I felt like I needed to discuss on the case since some people took it in the wrong way. Also because it is not an ongoing case anymore, but it has reached the final decision from the highest Malaysian court; the Federal Court.  My intention was only to straigh...

Dear A.

Assalamualaikum and hi.  There was this one time, I questioned God. That if you were not meant for me, then why did our path cross? Because that night, we were not supposed to meet. As I was supposed to come on another date. But some things happened, that I couldn’t come and I was scheduled a new date, with you. Then I asked God, why? Why him? And why me? Had we not met, we would not know each other’s names, nor be taking pictures. You would not know my existence, nor would you give me your number. And I would never…. ever texted you. No texting, meeting, no catching feelings.  Time flies very swiftly. Fast, but it felt right. You put the words together, and I did too. We were both excited to what our future holds. I asked you if you see me in your future, and you said yes. “I want you for a lifetime.”, you said. I hope you know that you made me feel, safe. And understood. And some other foreign feelings I could not express. You’re the easiest guy to communicate to. All this w...
