Aku sendiri tak pasti sama ada ianya berkaitan dengan malu..? Ego..? Segan ke..? Ke tak berani..? Aku pasti jawapan tu, hati kita sendiri yang mampu jawab.
"You must be the change you want to see in the world" |
Ada seorang pemuda berjiwa besar. Dia mengimpikan untuk mengubah dunia. Namun, semakin dewasa dan bijak, dia mula menyedari bahawa dunia tidak boleh diubah. Maka, dia pun berazam untuk mengubah negaranya sahaja.
Beberapa waktupun berlalu. Dia mula sedar bahawa negara sukar dan tidak dapat diubah. Dengan baki usianya yang makin lanjut, dia cuba mengubah keluarganya. Namun, tiada seorang pun yang mahu berubah.
Kini dia hanya mampu terlantar di katil sambil menunggu ajal.
"Kalaulah aku mengubah diriku dahulu. Dengan itu aku akan menjadi teladan kepada keluargaku untuk berubah. Daripada inspirasi serta galakan mereka, aku mungkin mampu menjadikan negaraku lebih baik. Dan siapa tahu, aku mungkin boleh mengubah dunia"
"Ya Allah, semoga kesakitan yang aku rasakan, di hujungnya membahagiakan. Kepenatan berakhir dengan kerehatan. Dan cita-cita dan impianku terlaksana. Hanya Engkau sebaik-baik penolong"(Muhammad Mitwali Al-Sha'rawi)
"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself" - Leo Tolstoy - |
An elderly man was walking along the beach, admiring the beautiful view. As he walked, he noticed that a large group of starfishes had been washed ashore by the receding tide, and they were struggling to get back to the water. The man was saddened by this turn of events, but accepted that there was nothing he could do to change anything.
The man walked on, continuing to notice the large numbers of helpless starfishes, until he saw another man in the distance standing at the water's edge amongst the starfishes. Curious, the elderly man walked over to him, wandering what he was up to.
As he got closer, the elderly man could see that the younger man was picking up starfishes, one by one, and throwing them back out into the sea. Astonished, the elderly man got close enough for the other man to hear him, and then he called out.
"Hey! What on earth are you doing..?"
The younger man turned to him and smiled, then turned back to the sea, still continuing his duty of picking up and throwing starfishes.
"I'm helping these starfishes get back into the ocean"
The elderly man couldn't believe it, why was this man wasting his time throwing starfishes back..? There were thousands of them here, it would take him days..! He voiced his thoughts.
"Why are you throwing them back..? There's thousands of them here, it'll take you forever..! How can you possibly hope to make a difference to these starfishes..?"
Remaining calm, the younger man continued his duty without looking at the elderly man. Just as he threw another starfish back into the ocean, he replied.
"I made a difference to that one"
Aku rasa semua ada pernah rasa perasaan ni. Bila tengok seseorang tu, tak kira sama ada orang tu kita kenal atau tak, automatically kita rasa macam lembut hati, nak ikut buat baik macam dia membuat sesuatu kebaikan, cara dia bercakap, cara berpakaian hatta peribadi dia sendiri. Walhal dia tak pernah paksa, suruh atau marah marah ikut cara dia. Dia juga tak pernah mengaku dirinya baik sempurna suci kerana kebaikan dapat disampaikan melalui perilaku kita sendiri andai kena caranya.
Cuba bayangkan andai Rasulullah SAW berada di depan mata kita..
