IF HAPPY LITTLE BLUE BIRDS FLY, ABOVE THE RAINBOW WHY, OH WHY CAN'T I?

Rompakan tidak bersenjata dan penyesalan perompaknya

Buat kali pertamanya, aku rasa bersalah amat. Aku rasa sangat berdosa. Ini kali pertama aku merasa berdosa ketika membaca. Ini kali pertama aku merasa sangat berdosa ketika membaca e-book. Buku eletronik yang percuma, hanya perlu menunggu dalam kadar 10 minit kurang atau lebih untuk siap dimuat turun. Membaca cerita yang baru dimuat turun tadi buat aku merasa berdosa kerana telah melakukan rompakan atas karyanya. Karya master piece yang harganya di pasaran buku Malaysia bukan setanding RM28 tapi sebenarnya tiada sepeser mahupun setrillion ringgit yang setanding dengan karya ini. Pengamatan bertahun-tahun si penulis sejak dari kecilnya membawa ke dewasa ini mungkin salah satu faktor kenapa aku merasa seperti si penjenayah Josh Soros yang menggelapkan nilai matawang dunia, malah mungkin seperti Adolf  Hitler yang membunuh tidak kurang 6 juta umat Yahudi itu.  Ahh maafkan aku. Esok aku bersumpah, akan cari bukunya yang asli di pekan.

Misconception

Almost half way through reading the newly arrived novel  Not Without My Daughter. And from this point I can clearly see one of the many why the non Moslem especially the American hate Islam and Moslem so much. For me, they confused between the religion and the people of the religion whom came from various background and customs and tradition. I am truly sorry and at the same time feels hurt to when there are people who have been abused brutally by the moslem who think they have the authority to do so in the name of Islam. Trust me, I am a moslem and I detest their wrong behavior.. Islam never teach the devoteed to do wrongful things. As the matter of fact, the prophet Muhammad will be very angry and I'm sure will never approve such ugly behavior like what the husband of Betty Mahmoody did to her. 

Things like that happens because their tradition (at the time) were too conservative and worst, too fanatic. I blame it on the people, the doer to be exact. Because I believe there still some kind people who actually use their brain to sort out what is right and what is wrong according to the Koran not CUSTOM and TRADITION. 

The story of struggling mother who will do anything to always be with her child in a inter-culture marriage is actually still happening. And I only hope and wish for inter-culture or inter-race marriage couples to stay together and bridge the understanding between each other's culture. For the sake of the child, for the sake of love.

Stories and adventures

I have big grin over my face today. The post guy finally came with my ordered novel. But before I get my hands on Betty Mahmoud's , I'll like to take a few adventures with the Secret Seven. I have a jolly good time reading it and reminisce childhood memory with the their adventures.

Enid Blyton's is always an old time favourite author of mine. I'm sure yours too!
