The Mont Blanc and lil kitten

Hours ago I went for shopping to buy a sling bag and ended up with a generic Mont Blanc. It's 100% leather tapi saya risau bahagian penyambung tali dengan beg tu sebab nampak besi tu macam tak tahan lama.

Sebenarnya saya tak sangka pun nak beli beg tu. Memang la beg tu nampak lawa tapi the moment I made the transaction, it's so fast. Not even a minute I think. Sebab orang yang jaga kedai tu cakap the original price was MYR125. Jadi awal-awal lagi saya dah tolak dan cakap kat dia budget saya bawah MYR80.

Abruptly, he removed the price tag and asked me wether I want to wear it now. I'm so shocked that I merely heard myself said yes. Then he asked me again how much I want and again I said MYR80. It was a deal. He got the money, I got the 'posh' sling bag.

I should say MYR70 right? or 60 would be better, but of course, I wasn't dare. He already gave more than 36% discount.

Sebab kedua ialah dia pakai tattoo kat sepanjang tangan kanan dia. So I suspected he's a Godfather.

Then just now I reached home, I saw this cute lil kitten lying on the road. Kesian sebab bulu dia basah dan nampak lemah sangat. Nasib baik tak kena langgar. So I picked her up bawak masuk rumah. At the moment saya letak dia kat bilik dobi dan balut dengan tuala. Sekarang macam dah tidur.

I'm thinking of taking her as a pet tapi housemates saya nampak keberatan. 3 lawan 1 sah-sah saya kalah (kecuali kalau saya keluarkan dalil yang Nabi suka kucing).

Right now I'm still trying to find a good plan for her.

The rich will be richer

Salam.

Just a quick message for you guys. I just thought of this awesome idea weeks ago. Kepada yang berkemampuan, jom kita sama-sama infakkan sikit pendapatan kita kepada orang yang lebih memerlukan.

We can make this as a habit. My formula is like this:

Okay, let's say our income is RM2,000. Why don't we use 1% from our income for a monthly donation. Yes, you heard me. Let's do it every month.

1% from RM2,000 is RM20. Tak banyak kan?

And from this RM20, why don't we divide it and give to *let say* four people who really need it. So each one will get RM5.

Saya tau RM5 ni tak mampu untuk menanggung kos sara hidup atau kos perubatan tapi bila ramai pihak yang terlibat, insyaallah kita dapat kumpul dana tu sampai cukup. Ingat tak peristiwa burung pipit yang tolong padamkan api yang membakar Nabi Ibrahim tu, so let's apply that in our situation.

Main point kat sini ialah nak mengamalkan budaya berkongsi dan rasa cukup dengan rezeki yang kita dapat. Kadang tu gaji yang kita dapat belum tentu lagi milik kita selamanya (baca: berkat) tapi bila kita guna duit tu untuk memudahkan hidup orang lain, insyaallah duit seciput tu lah yang tolong kita masa kat akhirat nanti.

Feel free to like this "Anak Angkat untuk Dibela" page, and make an action.

May Allah bless :-)
