WANITA itu CANTIK

Allah berfirman: "Ketika Aku menciptakan seorang wanita, ia diharuskan
untuk menjadi seorang yang istimewa. Aku membuat bahunya cukup kuat
untuk menopang dunia; namun, harus cukup lembut untuk memberikan
kenyamanan."

"Aku memberikannya kekuatan dari dalam untuk mampu melahirkan anak dan
menerima penolakan yang seringkali datang dari anak-anaknya."

"Aku memberinya kekerasan untuk membuatnya tetap tegar ketika
orang-orang lain menyerah, dan mengasuh keluarganya dengan penderitaan
dan kelelahan tanpa mengeluh."

"Aku memberinya kepekaan untuk mencintai anak-anaknya dalam setiap
keadaan, bahkan ketika anaknya bersikap sangat menyakiti hatinya."

"Aku memberinya kekuatan untuk mendukung suaminya dalam kegagalannya dan
melengkapi dengan tulang rusuk suaminya untuk melindungi hatinya."

"Aku memberinya kebijaksanaan untuk mengetahui bahwa seorang suami yang
baik takkan pernah menyakiti isterinya, tetapi kadang menguji
kekuatannya dan ketetapan hatinya untuk berada disisi suaminya tanpa
ragu."

"Dan akhirnya, Aku memberinya air mata untuk dititiskan. Ini adalah
khusus miliknya untuk digunakan bilapun ia perlukan."

"Kecantikan seorang wanita bukanlah dari pakaian yang dikenakannya,
susuk yang ia tampilkan, atau bagaimana ia menyisir rambutnya.Kecantikan
seorang wanita harus dilihat dari matanya, kerana itulah pintu hatinya,
tempat dimana cinta itu ada."

Kirimkan Firman ini kepada setiap wanita yg anda kenali. Anda akan
menambah harga diri ciptaan indah ini, wanita! kerana, Setiap Wanita itu
Cantik…

Wallahualam Bisawab.

from a friend of mine.

ALLAH WON’T ASK !!!!!!!!!!!!

Allah won’t ask what kind of car you drove,

but He’ll ask how many people you drove who didn’t have transportation.

Allah won’t ask the square footage of your house,

but He’ll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.

Allah won’t ask about the clothes you had in your closet,

but He’ll ask how many you helped to clothe.

Allah won’t ask what your highest salary was,

but He’ll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.

Allah won’t ask what your job title was,

but He’ll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.

Allah won’t ask how many friends you had,

but He’ll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.

Allah won’t ask in what neighbourhood you lived,

but He’ll ask how you treated your neighbours.

Allah won’t ask about the colour of your skin,

but He’ll ask about the content of your character.

Allah won’t ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation,

but He’ll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell.

cracked pots,anyone?

Wednesday, October 5th, 2005

A water bearer in China had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which he carried across his neck.

One pot had a crack in it, while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water. At the end of the long walk from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full. For a full two years this went on daily, with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his house.

Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments, perfect for which it was made. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it was able to accomplish only half of what it had been made to do.

After 2 years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream… "I am ashamed of myself,because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house."

The bearer said to the pot, "Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side?"
That’s because I have always known about your flaw, and I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. Every day while we walk back, you’ve watered them. For two years I have been able to pick these  beautiful flowers to decorate the table. "Without you being just the way you are,there would not be this beauty to grace the house."

Moral: Each of us has our own unique flaws. We’re all cracked pots. But it’s the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding. You must take each person for what they are, and look for the good in each one.
