ALHAMDULILLAH - MY GRATITUDE TO ALLAH THE ALMIGHTY

Alhamdulillah, 2007 has come to an end, 2008 is just around the corner. Thanks to the Almighty Allah for giving me such a good health! Thus, I have no problem in performing the duties as a good muslim, InsyaAllah.

Having a healthy physical and a healthy piece of mind, and at the same time being able to pursue a good and an active life have always been in my yearly diary. I will always make sure, all these will be the essence of my yearly resolution. Only by having all these I can go on doing everything necessary for my family and my career. HOW and WHY?....you must be wondering...

How can you be promoted to a new position if you are not physically and mentally healthy? How can you further your study and excel in your study if you are not physically and mentally healthy? How can you pursue a great life with your loved one and your family, if you are not physically and mentally healthy? AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING is HOW CAN YOU BE A GOOD SERVANT OF THE ALMIGHTY ALLAH if you are not physically and mentally healthy?

I have been holding to this Arab proverb, which means - a healthy and sound mind comes from a healthy body. To go on with your life, you need to feel good and stay healthy. Come on ladies! Who are going to look after your husbands/kids/families if you can't even look after yourselves? You have to be a living example to your loved ones, nourishing them with the essence of a great and happy life, showering them with the most wonderful feeling of loves one can ever give and creating the most indulgence ambiance of moments in life.

For a start, this might be a good help/tips for everyone...
