Choice...

Life is full of choices...we always have two or more choices in every decision that we have to make. Either we want to eat western food, oriental food, eastern food or Malay food...we can choose cold drinks or hot drinks, or we are free to choose what to wear for dinner with friends...always more choices...but why we always in hesitance to make a choice? Especially the important choice in life....Every choices we have, has implication...good outcomes and bad outcomes. Whatever choice we choose let it be the most likely making our life better, comfortable and great effect to us and our loves one. But if it turned out to be disappointment, still we are not making wrong choice...but actually we have choose to learn out of our mistakes. Therefore, we will be more mature in future to make choices!!

Sekadar menjengah

Sudah lama Lavendar Harum ini tidak dikemaskinikan. Tibanya tahun baru tiada sebarang berita atau cerita yang dimuatkan...bukannya tiada apa yang hendak dikongsikan, cuma tidak berkesempatan untuk duduk di hadapan laptop dan menulis lakaran hidup. Tahun baru ini menyaksikan dua orang anakandaku akan menduduki peperiksaan UPSR dan PMR, bermakna bertambahlah aktiviti dalam jadual kehidupan seharian. Semoga anak-anak ini tabah berusaha dengan gigih untuk mengulangkaji matapelajaran yang telah ketinggalan. Ada kelapangan akan ku jengah lagi halaman ini....
