Alhamdulillah after around 5 days of fever, Zoffea have finally recovered and now having slight rashes on the body that means the virus in her body will come out soon. Let's always pray the well being of our family and ourselves. Nowadays there are too many diseases spreading like wild fire. Either from human, environment or animals. All we can do is to eat right, make sure we are always clean, drink a lot of water and be in a clean and conducive environment.
Zaffar alhamdulillah is keeping well now must be because his immune have fully built up. And some how or rather we seldom expose him to outdoors since the haze and smog keeps on persisting every day. I admire the strength and consistency by my dear wife taking care of both kids throughout day in and day out. This is one of the patience giving to mothers, wives and women.
Zabir is also having fever and rarely eats causing his body to be so light but hopefully not malnutrition. Brought him out to persuade him to eat, only ate a few pieces of sushi. At least it's something.
Without a doubt our health is wealth. Below I extract a hadith on health by our Prophet
The final messenger of God, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mounted
the pulpit, then wept and said, "Ask Allah (swt) for forgiveness and health, for
after being granted certainty, one is given nothing better than health."

Sunday
What is Sunday to me?
I think somehow or rather, having a dad that use to go to a boarding school and myself as well, Sunday means a day where you wake up to pray for Subuh and straight away sleep again as long as you can. It's also a day where you have the allowance to let the day run past by you just laze around. Is this right? Maybe if you're a teenager or single.
Sunday now means a time where you utilize it to the maximum with your family. Where children meet parents, husband do chores with their wives, parents bring their children out for a stroll, run errands, catch up on kids home work and utilize every second of the time left during the weekend before weekdays hits.

Passion
I was searching the right term of passion as I started this entry with the intention to express my life's passion. But passion gives a broad meaning and below is extracted from wiki:
Passion (from the Ancient Greek verb πάσχω (paskho) meaning to suffer) is a term applied to a very strong feeling about a person or thing. Passion is an intense emotion compelling feeling, enthusiasm, or desire for something.
The term is also often applied to a lively or eager interest in or admiration for a proposal, cause, or activity or love – to a feeling of unusual excitement, enthusiasm or compelling emotion, a positive affinity or love, towards a subject. It is particularly used in the context of romance or sexual desire though it generally implies a deeper or more encompassing emotion than that implied by the term lust.
Therefore, I shall express about my enthusiasm on doing the things I love. I've always had passion about self improvement, challenging myself to do something more, something better and more. Because of this passion I was too anxious to start work, I attended interview as early as 19 years old like any other Brits in the UK. I was juggling between studies and finding work. Pushed myself to go beyond my current level and wanting to become the best in what I do.
On the side, I've always wanted to give back, I formed 1Thinking group for this purpose and explored all areas to pull more people in to join. Tried all possible business ventures to test my limit. I love cooking and experiment all type of dishes even since I was very young. Related to cooking and also eating, once un-realised dream to have my own travelling documentary showing how a normal Malaysian/asian, muslim would travel and eat in Europe. I grew up in the west quite a long time thus wanting to explore and share with the rest of the world.
For family and personal life, I've always wanted more for me and family. I managed to purchase a house at the value of almost MYR1mil at the age of 28. Bought my first house at 26 years old. I also want more for my children giving them good education. Now looking forward to send them to international school, to be amongst those who will complete O level at the age of 16 years old.
Bottom line, for me passion is doing something you love with the intention to reach to a better level mentally, physically and spiritually.

Blogging
Why is it so hard to be persistent in writing a blog entry? One thing for sure, I'm not one of those writers which can flow through the ideas in their head directly to words. Last night, my wife told me about a new blog she's reading which coincedently is a fellow MCOBA as well thus causing a sheer rush for me to write. Maybe due to jealousy or due to being inspired.
I've been working late nights and through the past weekends. Not to complaint much as my sleep time is short and I'm most of the time on my laptop doing work but imminently it does take me away my time from my family. Sometime I comfort my self thinking with the big pay cheque I'm getting means that the responsibility is more for me to utilize my spare time as well but I'm believer in work and life balance. A believer that family comes first. For us as bread-winners, we know for a fact that we work ultimately to fulfill our responsibility as human serving God, for family and for ourselves. Commitment and passion is the key to success and believing what we do is right will lead us to the right path.
Having a lot of things on my mind means I'm juggling 50GB of data per second going through my brain, unfortunately some times I fade away from my direct focus such as when I'm talking to my wife. That causes my wife thinking that talking to a wall is better than talking to me. I don't blame her for thinking so and I guess I have to do better in sequencing things that needs to be processed in my brain. In my day to day work, I lead a big team and chairs a lot meetings, easier said than done, I always tell people prioritzing is they to getting things done so maybe now I have to do so between personal and professional. Guide me...
