All around the world today, Muslims from all walks of life started the first day of ramadan. Ramadan is a month of fasting, many think that fasting is an act of not drinking and eating but it is far more than that. other religons around the world also have similar sessions.
Fasting is an act of self control, no lying, bad mouthing, gossiping and other harmful acts. (hence all politicians should take a month leave of absence) as those who fast would tell you, the devil and nafsu is at its most strongest during this month, the call to break fast is strong as to sway humans from this act of self control. So much so that to me, a full fasting day is not only victory for ourself but a victory against the devil.
Yet much of ramadan reminds me of the past, of my brothers and as i walked around the bazzar with my daughter in tow, it fills me with a sense of wonder of the journey that god has put me in. If the year before, my company was merely struggling and in fact was in ICU, with so many trusted ones bailing on it, i am honored and grateful that many stuck by me and God showed us mercy and allowed us to be here, in the last six months, we secured the AP BMX Supercross event in Octorber, Pitching for jobs in Jakarta and securing jobs with Astro. All this in 6 months, with the trust from Tun M, we pushed forward and secured Naza to be our title sponsor for three years.
As time grows and opportunities arises, we grab and go as far as we can go, with Stone Ads Sdn Bhd backing us up, i feel strong this year, with the three dragons combined (two have awaken) i still believe that this is a great start, provided that we are able to do what we must and have to power to face the hardships that is bound to come. That too is a victory i guess.
This time around, i do admit of getting bolder, in terms of marketing and promotions, i feel that we are able to purse a new way or path, and i pray god will answer my prayers ,if not for me then for my kids...
Hang in there folks, remember the struggle and do as much goodness and do remember, it does not have to be in Ramadan only that we be kind and good.
Peace...
