These picture post may be a bit late but they will be one of those sentimental values in my life. The life story that I can never exchange for. True it took me a long time to come to this stage. I went through so much pains and laughters. Started uplifting the family to a beautiful kampong place in Cumbernauld and travelling to a beautiful serene university to seek knowledge. Going through turmoils of studying at a late age, at the same time trying to keep the family going and entertaining friends (which the family loves to do). Being in a place faraway calls for a community acknowledgement. Hmmm.. this was a roller coaster ride. Some were sincere and love them to bits ( u know who u are), some were plain opportunists, some were just fault finders or finger pointers or should I say no reason story creators. But these all taught me to be stronger and to be more cautious in making friends.. now! But those are the past and for whatever they are, they are friends and I pray goodness for them insha Allah. Where academic is of concerned, the supervisor is a volcano erupter! He was there in the beginning, existence was a waste and then he dropped the bomb and he was gone leaving me in oblivion. My health deteriorated and life was just a falling dominoes.. years of sufferings but the inbetweens Allah delivered me some good news. With the elder babys success in academic and others followed through. Not to mention hubby got it worked for awhile in carrying out biz for a friend until the homeland calling. And I also have to thank Allah for delivering to me an ad hoc supervisor (2nd supervisor) such a gem, who came along just before my viva. I would not have completed this mission without his help n support. In achieving this success, I had to go through some big lost. Little sister passed away ( off guard) and a month after it was dad s turned to leave (he was suffering from MND for years). That was the calling and I had to push forward to complete my nawaitu. I was then diagnosed with illnesses that I had to put aside for other stuff to come through, alhamdullilah with Allahs will I am in good hands now. Coming back to work after 8 years was another long story.. being bounced like a ball here n there and many critics that now I know can be sincere or otherwise but I ll take it positively. Challenges only Allah knows. But it s okay I will stride and I will get on with life positively as Allah has challenged me in a very small miniscule way.. My family is my life and without them I am a nobody and I am nowhere close to this achievement. As they went through the pains along my journey of getting a PhD. The road we travelled will be memories of a lifetime. Pictures post are with some people we value in our lives (some may not be in pics during our visit back to UK esp Scotland). Some places we visited will be beautiful memories. Only Allah knows when we will get to travel this way again.. inshaAllah I pray for the best as this road well travelled allows me to see and learn the wonders of this world. Milk of human kindness and Allah s creations... great lands of opportunity and strangers that I meet before I am called to meet HIM. Thank you Allah for this greatest opportunities in which I know I may not come across over again! Alhamdullilah... . syukur (Pictures courtesy of kids mobile and mine. Pictures from camera unfortunately missing due to a misfortune... another test from Allah)
