there was an earthquake happened just now during Asar prayer, I was praying, then I felt like my body wavered a little bit, like, when we are khusyu' in dhikr, we rocked our body. at first I thought that I was just exhausted from the house work. then, I opened the twitter and facebook, and of course, everybody were talking about it. the first quake were very mild that some people will barely noticed it.
but the second earthquake.................
I was surfing the web, when the second earthquake occur. like the first one, I thought that I was having a headache or something but when I focused my attention, I realized that it is the second earthquake. well, Malaysia is a very safe country. we are outside the Pacific fire ring, or whatever people called it. so we barely have an earthquake or something like that. experiencing this rare earthquake is quite shocking. this time, it was more significant. it felt like rocking a baby on his cradle and it happened for a longer period of time. although it was still considered as mild, it still scares me.
many thoughts came into my mind. what if the building collapsed? what if the earthquake become stronger? what if I can't see my tomorrow? or other's tomorrow? what if......what if......
I became scared, I became terrified. I feel alone,,,,,,
until.....
I heard a knock on my door, and there was my mom, holding a cup of hot sweet tea, smiling at me. she held the cup towards me, still smiling. I took the cup, smiled, and closed the door. sipping the hot tea, I feel much relieved.
sometimes we don't need to say anything to show people how we feel.
who can expect that a cup of tea can make a person feel loved and contented............

wassalam...
