- On turning 30 - AN ODE TO MYSELF It has been a tumultuous year for me, personally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Sweet, bitter, exciting, confusing, amazing, painful, fun, heartbreaking, colourful and sullen... you name it. Honestly, it's a pretty abnormal series of events that not everyone can digest or go through. Nor do I wish upon anyone, not even my worse enemies. But I survived and hopefully thriving. In Shaa Allah. Not to say that it has not been wonderful. It's been fantastic as well. Therefore, I can't really complain. Life is pretty spectacular. I owe the most to my father. For always being there, supporting, nursing, consoling, feeding and taking care of me. I know I can be difficult and made it even tougher for him. Thank you for not giving up on me. You are my one true love, my heart and soul. My mother, my inspiration and my idol. I hope I haven't let you down. I know you're watching me and I hope you will continue to do so. Not a day goes by that I don't miss you. Al-Fatihah. My family, my friends and my colleagues, thank you for always keeping me grounded. Thank you for being in my life. I will forever longed for and miss those who have been absent from my life. All the 'should have', 'could have', 'would have' and all the 'what 'if'. May it all become something more and flourish (if that even make any sense). Despite all that, I fee rather optimistic, with everything that's going on right now. It feels good and promising. Let's pray and hope for the best. For me and for all of my loves. And that is how, turning 30 makes me feel. Happy birthday to me. #izybesday #augustbaby #izylyfe #izykiraherblessing #izytomodachi #izykazoku #izywork #izygetsphilosophical #bringiton (at Negeri Sembilan)
