Who Moved My Cheese?

Life is like a maze.. Only Him up above knows the best path lead to the right exit..
#Show me the way.. Ya Allah..#

Just finished reading Who Moved My Cheese book by Dr Spencer Johnson.. Love it..! Need to buy one book for my collection..  

 

Dr Spencer is brilliant in making the real life story into something so simple that we can relate in all circumstances we are facing in our daily lives.. The book is the story of four characters.. Sniff and Scurry, both are rats.. hurm.. mouses.. not sure what are they supposed to be called.. in other word tikus.. and other two characters are Hem and Haw, two little dwarf.. erk.. orang kerdil.. (haha that's why I need to find the English version.. huhuhu).. 

These Sniff, Scurry, Haw and Hem are living in the maze and they have to find the cheese to keep on living..

All four characters are actually combination of parts in ourselves - simple and complex parts.. Sometimes we act like Sniff who can smells the changes that is happening around us.. Or maybe we act like Scurry which is very fast in action.. Perhaps, most of the time we are in Hem character who denies and rejects any new changes because we afraid the changes may lead to something worst.. Last but not least, we can be  like Haw who can learn and adapt to changes that happen which can bring us to better state..

All action happens because of this - whether we are afraid or not..  


Everyone cannot foresee their future.. Even though you are a fortune teller, you are not the person who can simply control your fate.. For muslim, we believe in Qada' and Qadar.. 

However, Allah tidak akan mengubah nasib sesuatu kaum melainkan mereka mengubahnya sendiri.. (huhu cannot spend more time to translate this.. to be edited later).. That's why, we are in the state of choosing our path.. We are the one who decide which corner we want to turn, which road we want to travel, what transportation and what kind of provision we have to use and prepare.. The most important thing is we are the one who must decide our target destination..

Along the way, whenever and whatever option we decide and choose..
