Do you believe in destiny?
‘Cos I do.
As a Moslem, I used to be told that we have to believe in to ‘Takdir Allah’.
Allah has already prepared each human with their own destiny since they were in the womb of their mothers or maybe even from earlier stage.
With that faith I can always deal with problems in ease.
I believe every problem that happened was meant to be and it was tailored to meet my limit.
Many things had happened to complete my circle of life.
Lots of joy and happiness fill me, although there were some tears and sadness too.
Some are small things but even they were small but still valuable and not to mention some big things that are so big that they’d stressed me out.
To summarize, I really do have a complete life.
And I do mean complete.
Because I still have my mom and dad around.
We still go to places together.
I have my brother along with his family.
And the most precious is that I have My Al, who makes my life perfect.
Now, I also was destined to meet ‘him’.
It’s destiny that we have to find each other at the end of our road.
How I met him…
I saw him first at one gig.
He had to come up to the stage so that we all could see him.
But I didn’t feel anything at all.
For me he was just someone that I don’t know and don’t even want to know.
It was my 12th year’s passion for ‘Pure Saturday’ that brought me to that gig.
It was an invitation from my best friend Adam who asked me to join him to watch that gig since he knows very well that I love Pure Saturday so much.
But the moment just passed by.
What I can recall from that night is that it was a great show and I had to go early because my Al had fallen into sleep in my arms.
Yes, I bring my Al to a gig!!!
Until one day, the same Adam called me in the middle of a script composing and told me to open Pure Saturday website to look up some gig news.
Ok I will as told him.
In my spare time, I had the chance to open it and find a way to join Pure Saturday Mailing list.
I joined them without any prediction. All I can think of is that I can share info with the people that I share my passion with.
Until someone that I knew then is the chief of the gang, greeted me and thanked me for joining the mailing list.
It was him.
In December 2006, a launch of an ost compilation was held.
The place was near my office.
Everybody at the mailing list talked about it and considered to visit the event.
After pushed my doubt away, I decided to come alone… only accompanied by my own guts.
The friendly members greeted me and let me mingled.
At 8, he came late as ever.
Someone introduced us.
We clicked right away.
We talked about many things that night, about music, passion, work and stuffs.
Few days after, He sent me a private email asking for my ym id.
We’d been chatting a lot since then.
We talked and share a lot, even our private matters.
I even thought to hook him up with one of my best friend since he said he was looking for a girl friend.
I enjoyed his company and considered him as a new best bud.
Even when he offered to accompany me to watch movies, I still hadn’t felt a thing rather than glad to have a friend like him.
Until one moment, love was blown through my ears and went directly into the heart.
It was when I saw him played with my beautiful Al and that made me admired him more.
Until, I felt that he was so kind and tender to us.
Again I fall in love.
And in three months from now we’re going to be husband and wife (InsyaAllah),
I believe it was destiny that hooks us up.
I believe that it was written in my ‘takdir’ that one day I would meet him and share so many things with him, even latter, share my life.
I believe this is my destiny… And I thank God for it.
