Dear know it all (s)

"When every single person around a young mother wants to tell her what to do and what not to do, why her child is crying and how she is feeding the child inadequately, then more confusion and hurt is caused rather than education or solution to the matter.

Babies will cry, just like we did at one stage and it is only correct to say a word of encouragement to the mother or remain silent. Interference into matters of feeding and upbringing can be the most annoying, depressing and stressful experience a young mother has. Each child is unique and not all solutions will be applicable.

Criticism of young mothers by their own family members or friends shows that they do not really care but simply want to prove they know better without actually providing a positive silent solution in the most loving manner.
No mother intentionally causes pain or grief to her baby but rather she is very keen on providing every bit of comfort."
-Mufti Ismail Menk-

What you just read above is a very common cause we turn our backs from. People don't think before they speak. They mock the mother by letting her know how much her child lacks in discipline, or how abnormal her child looks. All this without even realizing that your mocking her.

True you'll never know the real pain unless its about you. But this doesn't mean you cant be considerate. You yourself is a parent or will be a parent. How will you feel when your neighbor tells you "I saw your kid with long hair dudes, maybe he is using drugs too" or " Look how thin your child is, she looks like a branch" or "what terrible grades your child brought this term, my Lara brought all As" or "You better do this and that  than doing that (like me, yay I'm so great, notice me) SIGH SHEESH YA'LL!

Maybe people don't know what they are doing, maybe the "know it alls" doesn't even know what's right and what's wrong. I just hope this will be a good knowledge to have or more of a food for thought.

And why am i writing about this topic? Well in my opinion our mothers have put up a lot with these "know it all" (s) who bug into every single motherly business they do in the wrong way. I know i have been a cause of that for my mother, she dealt with a lot of them and i thank my mother for coping up with all of them so well and taking care of me her way :) Thanks mom.

So let us all be more considerate and instead of showing every bad out of everything comfort the person you care about. Compliment her, support her and help her in the most less annoying way you can :)

May Allah guide us all to the right path :)
Peace!

"Hardship may dishearten and worry you at first. But every hardship passes away.
All dispair is followed by hope.
All darkness is followed by sunshine :)"

What a beautiful saying. I don't know who said it but its truly inspiring and true. No matter what you do nothing bad lasts for ever. Somehow we make it.
Alhamdhlillah, things do turn out well in the end :)

But this is if your doing the right thing ok. If you are planning to rob a bank then haaa fat chance okey :P
Seriously, no robbing -.-

Beauty of Office Trips

Life is pretty tough after my new job as a salesgirl. yeah.. a salesgirl.. this profession might sound like the easiest job ever for some of you while it might seem like the toughest job for others. Actually its a little bit of both. Means, its an easy job when your shop is having a high sales day where every customers comes to buy  but its alot more difficult when your having a bad sales day when every customer is "just checking around"
Moreover when a salesperson has to do all the shifts starting from morning till night, it just gets condensed with nothing but stress!!

SO with all that I NEEDED A BREAK.. ALL MY WORK COLLEAGUES NEEDED A BREAK!  and so we all decided to go on a picnic , with all the staffs in our company which, made no sense at first because its another freaking day with all ur work mates! i mean come on
BUT!

It was the other way around.  this actually turned out to be the perfect therapy for a relief from what we all were experiencing and it was so worth it. i got to meet so many different people all with so many different characters.

Since i was new to the company, at this trip i got to meet the informal part of my workmates which was pretty cool. Because they are sooo much funnier! There's so much to do outside you know, so many games, and so many jokes to crack up and laugh about. Because there's no reason to think "wait will she be offended if i say this or that?" or "should i laugh at this or not?" so there wasn't any tension between us .It was a wonderful experience. And i think all of you who is having work stress or a hard time at work should plan a trip like this.

Actually not only work it could be with a bunch of freshmen or with a new in law or something, because u get to know so much about each other and somehow ur so much connected with each other and they become special :)

SO dont just complain all day about how depressing your work is or how tired you are, doing the same thing every freaking day. Instead, GO HAVE A TRIP WITH THEM! and just CHILL :D insha allah you'l feel so much at ease
its so worth it u know ;)
