On Children

'Dan jgn sesekali engkau mengatakan terhdp sesuatu "aku pasti mengerjakan esok pagi"kecuali dengan mengatakan insyaAllah.Dan ingatlah kpd Tuhanmu apabila engkau lupa dan katakanlah a'sa an yahdiyani rabbi liaqraba min hadza rashada' -al kahfi 23&24.

CHILDREN by Kahlil Gibran

Your children are not your children.

They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

They come through you but not from you,

And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,

For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,

which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children

as living arrows are sent forth.

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,

and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let our bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;

For even as He loves the arrow that flies,

so He loves also the bow that is stable.

3 things in life that never return - Time, opportunity and love

3 things in life must not be lost - Faith, hope and honesty

3 things in life that is most valuable - Self confidence, hard work and sincerity

p/s : Kahlil Gibran is one of my favorite writer as well poet...hehe, secret reveal since no one know 'bout it except Almighty Allah.
