pain

pain..
theres a rationale behind why God created this emotion
despite the fact that every one's nature of pain differ from one another,
all human beings endure this emotion from time to time
can you imagine life without pain?
a world free from grief and sorrow
a life so perfect nothing could ever go wrong
if you ask anyone out there,
what their idea of an ideal life is like,
their answer would perhaps be,
a life without pain
they are not aware that pain is what makes life worthy
it makes life appealing
it makes us appreciate small things we take for granted
it makes us wanna strive towards overcoming the pain and moving on with our lives
although it leaves permanent holes in our hearts,
it motivates us to work harder towards a better life

pain comes in all shapes and sizes,
anywhere and everywhere
it may strike us emotionally
the pain of parting with someone we love
the pain of not being able to live up to certain expectations
the pain of hurting our loved ones
the pain of being deceived
or it may hit us by the physical manner
the pain of being harassed,tortured and infected with sickness

can you imagine a world without these circumstances?
a world without pain is static
can you imagine not being able to cry?
everything in life is so perfect that our tear ducts are too proud to shed a single tear
can you imagine not being able to feel the adrenaline rush when you get something you've been longing for,
because your life is painless that your heart cannot comprehend the sensation?
can you imagine holding a newborn baby in your arms and feeling nothing but numbness?
can you imagine being in love and not be able to savor the miracle of pure happiness?

it is often said that war is cold-blooded murder
it only brings misery,loss and heartache
but would we really appreciate our peace and serenity if not due to the pain caused by war?
would we really be concerned to exercise our right to vote for our own government if not for the
political mess and mistakes made by our forefathers?
would we stumble upon humanity if there's no pain and suffering in this world?
would we grasp and value the idea of happiness at all if there was no pain?

Anugerah Paling Berharga

Kau muncul ketika kegelapan

Awan redup mengiringi ketibaanmu

Taufan dan kilat memanah penjagamu

Mereka tersungkur,tak mampu bangkit

Kehadiranmu disalah ertikan

Jasad lemah mengaburi hikmah kewujudanmu

Sinar matamu jernih mencerminkan kesucian

Namun tak dapat menangkis kezaliman dan ketidakadilan

Tanganmu menyimpulkan tali yang hampir putus

Azalimu menduga mereka

Menjadikan aku manusia

Tanpamu,pasti aku terdampar di tanah jahil

Mengais ngais kebenaran

Kau datang tanpa dosa

Dan kau akan pulang tanpa dosa

Tempatmu telah dijanjikan disisiNya
