Firman Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala di dalam Surah Al-Fath, ayat 27:
Sesungguhnya Kami telah menghancurkan negeri-negeri yang ada di sekitar kalian.
Contoh yang paling ketara adalah keluarga Al-Baramikah, sebuah keluarga kaya, yang suka berfoya-foya, dan bergelumbang kenikmatan. Bencana yang menimpa mereka adalah sebuah pelajaran, nasihat dan contoh. Hanya dalam waktu sehari, Harun Ar-Rasyid berjaya menggulingkan mereka. Mereka lalai, mereka tidur nyenyak di dalam selimut-selimut kenikmatan, dan bersenang-senang dalam taman-taman kemewahan.
Tiba-tiba pada suatu pagi, rumah mereka diruntuhkan, istana mereka dihancurkan, semua yang melindungi mereka ditewaskan, justeru oleh tangan yang sangat dekat dengan mereka. Semua hamba milik mereka, dirampas, darah mereka ditumpahkan, dan mereka menjadi orang yang dibinasakan. Dengan bencana itu, semua orang mereka cintai juga harus terluka hatinya. Sungguh tidak ada Tuhan lain selain Allah. Tidak terhitung kenikmatan yang telah dirampas, dan tidak terhitung pelajaran yang harus ditebus dengan darah.
Seorang penyair mengatakan:
Beginilah musibah besar atau lainnya
bila datang menimpa
dan seperti itulah
kejayaan suatu negeri dihancurkan.
Bertahun-tahun mereka terbuai dalam kesenangan, terbuai oleh hati yang senang, dan mengabaikan hari-hari yang terus berlalu.
Seorang lagi penyair mengatakan:
Bendera telah berkibar di atas kepala mereka
Bala tentera pun
telah berbaris siaga di sekeliling mereka
Seakan-akan tidak ada manusia
antara Hajun sampai ke Shafa
dan di Makkah
seakan-akan tidak ada lagi orang yang berjaga malam

Hidup ini bukan untuk bersedih
Renungan
Jangan bersedih! Sesungguhnya rasa sedih akan selalu mengganggumu dengan kenangan masa lalu, akan membuatmu khuatir dengan segala kemungkinan di masa akan datang, dan akan menyia-nyiakan kesempatanmu pada hari ini.
Jangan bersedih! Sesungguhnya rasa sedih hanya akan membuat hati menjadi kecut, wajah menjadi muram, semangat akan padam, dan harapan akan menghilang.
Jangan bersedih. Sebab kesedihan hanya akan membuat musuh gembira, membuat kawan bersedih, membuat orang yang mendengki senang, dan membuat hakikat-hakikat yang ada berubah.
Jangan bersedih! Sesungguhnya rasa sedih sama dengan menentang qadha, dan menyesali sesuatu yang pasti, jauh dari sikap lembut, dan benci terhadap nikmat.
Jangan bersedih! Sesungguhnya rasa sedih tidak akan pernah mengembalikan sesuatu yang hilang dan semua yang telah pergi, tidak akan membangkitkan orang yang telah mati, tidak mampu menolak takdir, dan mendatangkan manfaat.
Jangan bersedih!Sesungguhnya rasa sedih itu datangnya dari syaitan, dan kesedihan itu adalah rasa putus asa yang menakutkan, kefakiran yang menimpa, putus asa yang berlanjutan, depresi yang harus dihadapi, dan kegagalan yang menyakitkan.

- Carilah kebahagiaan dalam diri sendiri, bukan di sekitar dan di luar diri anda-
Penyair Inggeris, Milton, berkata: " Fungsi dan sifat aqal itu boleh membuat syurga menjadi neraka dan neraka menjadi syurga."
Al- Mutanabbi berkata:
Orang yang beraqal
hidup susah dalam kenikmatan kerana aqalnya.
Sementara orang yang bodoh dalam kesulitan
ia berbahagia.

A boy made happy
In this little town of Truro, Nova Scotia there are many boys and girls who are afraid. Some remember sorrows which happened to them in the past.
A badly cut finger or a broken ankle. Sometimes even a hurt, deep inside from a word spoken in anger.
When the night sneaks upon them, children lay in bed with the blankets tightly up around their chins. The shadows on the edge of the ceiling make them slide deeper under the covers.
One of these young children is a boy who is a real scaredy-cat. Matt is ten years old and always nervous about something. And tonight is no exception. That's why his mother left the light on in the hallway. To frighten away strange noises.
But that's not all that's wrong with Matt. He is also very unhappy. In the daytime he watches everyone pass by.
He notices adults carry their briefcases on their way to work. He even worries about how hard they have to work.
He sees ladies holding umbrellas in case the rain comes in the afternoon. He thinks a hurricane or a terrible rainstorm might come.
Matt always thinks the worst. He even lingers behind other children on their way to school. Some play friendly tricks on each other and tease and holler in loud voices.
Not Matt. He has very few friends. In fact if he had to think very hard he probably wouldn't remember more than two. They live on the other side of Truro. So he's pretty much alone.
Today is very special for Matt. He doesn't realize it but his grandfather is watching him.
He sees Matt go to school and waits for him to come out for lunch. He watches Matt eat by himself on one of the benches in the schoolyard.
It is right near one of Matt's favorite squirrels. A bushy black movement always waits for his friend. Grandfather sees this and is glad. He watches as Matt motions the squirrel to come across the yard and sit with him.
A black blur races toward him. Then jumps up on the bench to take the peanut treat.
Over the next few days grandfather was able to observe the kindness, which Matt had not only for animals but for people as well. When Sally fell off her bike and cut herself, Matt stayed with her until she was fixed up by her mother.
Most of the neighborhood children took part in a Saturday baseball game with their parents.
Matt never played because he thought he was not good enough. He was old enough and big enough but he was too afraid to try. He thought if he ever got up to bat, he would never be able to hit the ball. Then he would let everyone down, and they would laugh at him. And if he hit the ball he would be too slow to run to first base. Or he might miss the ball when it was thrown to him.
Matt was so afraid of making a mistake.
Grandfather knew this and wanted to help Matt.
Matt was watching a few children play ball at Victoria Park. Then grandfather decided to make his appearance. He sat beside Matt and said "Hello." Matt almost fainted. This was a surprise visit.
"Grandpa!" he shouted. His own favourite grandpa from Edmonton, Alberta was here. Right beside him. "I want to see you play ball in Saturday's game," he said.
Grandpa asked Matt what he wanted most and before the answer came from his lips, something mysterious happened. Matt felt so light he wanted to fly. There was a picture in front of his eyes, then another and another. Images and sounds were running through his mind. His whole body felt relaxed. His hands weren't shaking anymore and suddenly he felt an urge to do something.
He could feel it tugging at his arm and sending shivers down his spine. He looked at the baseball game and watched excitedly as someone who looked so much like himself hit the ball and ran to first base.
He watched the rest of the game in amazement as that same boy who looked like his twin did awesome things, wonderful things like he wished he could do.
Matt suddenly awakened from his dream and looking down at his arm saw that grandpa was grasping it firmly.
Grandpa had told him something.
Matt knew he could do it, if he wanted to. He could be that same boy in the dream.
But grandpa said," It was no dream." Then he got to his feet and placing his hand on Matt's shoulder said, "Be happy, grandson. And continue to make others happy."
From that moment on, Matt was never afraid again and he did play in the very next baseball game. And it was just as grandpa had said.
He could do it.
And he did!

7 emosi penganggu kesihatan
Manusia tidak luput dari terkena penyakit. Semenjak dari kecil, manusia sudah mengenal sakit, sampai menjelang ajalnya sering dibayangi oleh berbagai-bagai penyakit. Untuk mengatasi penyakit, telah dicuba dengan berbagai-bagai cara pengubatan. Walaupun ilmu kedoktoran maju begitu pesat sekali tetap masih ada penyakit yang tidak diketahui sebabnya.
Walaubagaimanapun, Ilmu pengubatan alternatif dan holistik telah membahagikan penyebab penyakit kepada tiga golongan besar.
Pertama, penyakit yang datangnya dari luar tubuh, masuk ke badan melalui kulit, lalu menyerang meridian(jalur bujur)tubuh dan selanjutnya menyerang organ dalam. Termasuk dalam kategori ini adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh angin, dingin, panas, lembab, kering, api serta penyakit menular.
Kedua, penyebab penyakit dari dalam yang berasal dari emosi(perasaan) penderita. Termasuk dalam kategori ini adalah tujuh jenis emosi iaitu gembira, marah, khuatir, berfikir, sedih, takut dan terkejut.
Ketiga, penyebab penyakit yang tidak termasuk golongan pertama dan kedua. Dalam kelompok ini contohnya kebiasaan hidup yang tidak teratur(makann minum, bekerja, rehat dll), kegiatan bersenggama yang berlebihan sserta luka dan gigitan binatang.
Berikut merupakan penyataan bagaimana emosi GEMBIRA membawa gangguan kepada manusia..
GEMBIRA
Semua manusia inginkan kegembiraan. Kalau dapat mereka tidak mahu bertemu dengan kesedihan, ketakutan, kekhuatiran, kemarahaan dalam kamus hidup mereka. Akan tetapi sudah menjadi sunnatullah bahawa kejadian di alam ini adalah dalam berpasangan. Bila ada kesedihan, mesti ada kegembiraan.
Gembira adalah tanda fungsi jantung dalam keadaan normal. Ini bererti darah, kelenjar limpa dan aliran tenaga berjalan dengan lancar dan baik. Manifestasinya badan sihat. Namun bila kegembiraan melebihi had, perjalanan tenaga dalam tubuh akan bergolak dan tersebar sehingga semangat yang tersimpan di jantung akan bergolak juga. Pada saat gembira, aliran tenaga akan menjadi perlahan.
Banyak contoh yang menunjukkan terlalu gembira akan mengakibatkan bencana pada diri seseorang. Mungkin anda pernah mendengar cerita dimana seorang ayah meninggal dunia kerana terlalu gembira apabila mendapat khabar bahawa anaknya dapat melanjutkan pelajaran ke luar negara. Pada hal dia tidak menyangka sedemikian.
Ini adalah satu fenomena yang menyatakan bahawa sewaktu kegembiraan melonjak, aliran tenaga menjadi terlalu laju dan telah menyebabkan berlakunya kerosakan pada jantung kerana tidak dapat menampung kelajuan tenaga yang datang secara mendadak.
Sebagai kesimpulan, faktor emosi merupakan sesuatu yang perlu diwaspadai. Individu yang mempunyai fikiran yang positif biasanya mempunyai tahap kesihatan yang lebih baik. Oleh itu kendalikanlah perasaan dengan sebaik-baiknya agar anda menjadi seorang individu yang sihat.

I Love You
I was a 17 years years old teenage girl back then. And i never fall in love with anyone seriously even when i was in high school. I was quite nerdy and live in my own world. Until i discover the real world. It started when i went to Labuan Matriculation College to further my study after SPM. There, i met my first love.
We met at a camping programme. We were very happy for making a friendship bond. We sms each other quite alot but rarely meet. It is because my course was life science while his course was physical science. So, the coincident for us to meet is low. Luckily we met at Pulau Penyu for that torturing camping days..
One day, he said "I love You". It made me feel like the world is changing and i was so touched. I cried. I cried because i was very happy that finally, a guy confessed he loved me for the first time ever, in my life...
It's one of the sweetest memory in my life that i will always keep. =)
