I always believe that to make other people smile is not easy and not difficult. I love to see people smile especially when they are smiling at me. Thats why I love photography and of course, capturing precious moments like family events, holiday trips, short getaways, weddings and birthday parties always be my favourite. Then I started doing my photography business in 2011.
I realised that I can do more. So I started joining this wonderful kindergarten which was previously my school when I was a kid. I helped my old teachers, I could also call them “makcik” or aunty cause they are so motherly and caring to us until now. I became a so called intern and help the kids to prepare them for their sports day and a few academic classes. Well, I’m not so good in controlling them running here and there but it was a memorable event of my life back in 2011. That self satisfaction comes when it was the sports day itself. Some kids won gold medal, some won the consolation prize. The most important part is that they are all happy.
At the same time, I helped one of my mom’s best friend by becoming a home tutor to her son and 2 of her daughters. Tutoring them add maths, science, chemistry and biology was really an eye opening for me. Three of them have different characteristics but I really enjoyed teaching each and every one of them. Hopefully I helped them too. I can’t remember their results cause it was 6 years ago >.< but alhamdulillah, they are all successful now I can say. One of them got a degree in the UK, the other two is on their way to get their degree soon insyaAllah. No matter how much I have contributed to their current success but I am happy enough to see them as they are now :’) (*emotional)
So I continued bits and pieces of what I did back then. Now, I became a part time photographer, an event manager, a travel agent for my family, a home tutor and the most recent thing I do is becoming a tailor. Not really that tailor who sew clothes but I could say a tailor who modifies a simple dress into a whole new dress that is customised into what my clients dream of. I sew beads and glued blings to clothes. With just that, I have made my clients smile. Alhamdulillah. Such a pleasure to me :)
I always think back and say to myself. Why should I only do one thing when I can do many things to make people happy? Just do what I can do best no matter how simple it is to me or to other people. Just do it and I shall feel the satisfactions and happiness despite all those tokens I got. But always remember that work must comes with a pure heart. No matter how many thanks you received or rewards you achieved. With ikhlas, everything will be easy for you and you will enjoy doing it no matter how hard it takes. Hopefully, there’s barakah from Allah
Till then,
Thank you for reading my words of happiness.
May Allah bless every single one of us with love and happiness in Dunya and Akhirah. Ameen.
Love,
