Supply Chain Management Part 1/3

Definition:
Supply chain management (SCM) is the central organization of a company's production resources and materials intended to streamline the production process and reduce costs on a continuing basis.

Example:
A company's production operation contains material input components, each of which incurs a cost which is recovered in the price of the finished product. Much of market competition is based on keeping the prices of finished products as low as possible without sacrificing quality. For this reason, supply chain management (SCM) attempts to bridge this gap effectively by closely monitoring the cost a company pays for materials and from whom the materials are being procured. In addition, SCM monitors the operational procedures from start to finish in order to identify costly and unnecessary procedural steps.

Matters:
The activities comprised in SCM help a company to increase the efficiency of its production cycle while placing downward pressure on its costs as safeguard to maintain, and, where possible, increase profitability.

How To Make Easy Kimchi

How to Make Cabbage Kimchi
Makes 1 quart

What You Need
Ingredients
1 (2-pound) head napa cabbage
1/4 cup sea salt or kosher salt
Water
1 tablespoon grated garlic (about 5-6 cloves)
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon sugar
2-3 tablespoons seafood flavor or water
1-5 tablespoons Korean red pepper flakes
8 ounces Korean radish or daikon, peeled and cut into matchsticks
4 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

Equipment
Cutting board and knife
Large bowl
Gloves (optional but highly recommended)
Plate and something to weigh the kimchi down, like a jar or can of beans
Colander
Small bowl
Clean 1-quart jar with canning lid or plastic lid
Bowl or plate to place under jar during fermentation

Instructions

• Cut the cabbage. Cut the cabbage lengthwise into quarters and remove the cores. Cut each quarter crosswise into 2-inch-wide strips.
• Salt the cabbage. Place the cabbage and salt in a large bowl. Using your hands (gloves optional), massage the salt into the cabbage until it starts to soften a bit, then add water to cover the cabbage. Put a plate on top and weigh it down with something heavy, like a jar or can of beans. Let stand for 1-2 hours.
• Rinse and drain the cabbage. Rinse the cabbage under cold water 3 times and drain in a colander for 15-20 minutes. Rinse and dry the bowl you used for salting, and set it aside to use in step 5.
• Make the paste. Meanwhile, combine the garlic, ginger, sugar, and seafood flavor (or 3 tablespoons water) in a small bowl and mix to form a smooth paste. Mix in the gochugaru, using 1 tablespoon for mild and up to 5 tablespoons for spicy (I like about 3 1/2 tablespoons).
• Combine the vegetables and paste. Gently squeeze any remaining water from the cabbage and return it to the bowl along with the radish, scallions, and seasoning paste.
• Mix thoroughly. Using your hands, gently work the paste into the vegetables until they are thoroughly coated. The gloves are optional here but highly recommended to protect your hands from stings, stains, and smells!
• Pack the kimchi into the jar. Pack the kimchi into the jar, pressing down on it until the brine rises to cover the vegetables. Leave at least 1-inch of headspace. Seal the jar with te lid.
• Let it ferment. Let the jar stand at room temperature for 1-5 days. You may see bubbles inside the jar and brine may seep out of the lid; place a bowl or plate under the jar to help catch any overflow.
• Check it daily and refrigerate when ready.Check the kimchi once a day, pressing down on the vegetables with a clean finger or spoon to keep them submerged under the brine. (This also releases gases produced during fermentation.) Taste a little at this point, too! When the kimchi tastes ripe enough for your liking, transfer the jar to the refrigerator. You may eat it right away, but it's best after another week or two.

Recipe Notes

• Salt: Use salt that is free of iodine and/or anti-caking agents, which can inhibit fermentation.
• Water: Chlorinated water can inhibit fermentation, so use spring, distilled, or filtered water if you can.
• Seafood flavor and vegetarian alternatives:Seafood gives kimchi an umami flavor. Different regions and families may use fish sauce, salted shrimp paste, oysters, and other seafood. Use about 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, salted shrimp paste, or a combination of the two. For vegetarian kimchi, I like using 3/4 teaspoon kelp powder mixed with 3 tablespoons water, or simply 3 tablespoons of water.

Culture of Kelantan

Kelantan is known as the cradle of Malay culture based on the diverse cultural activities practised by Kelantanese. Among the popular cultural practices are Dikir Barat, Wayang Kulit Kelantan, Wayang Kulit Melayu, Mak Yong, Menora, Main Puteri, Wau Bulan (kite-flying), Gasing (top-spinning), Silat, bird-singing competition and handicrafts.
Among the handicraft products that are songket, batik, silverware and mengkuang. The Kandis Recource Centre provides information on the Kelantanese wood carving.

Dikir Barat

Dikir barat is a style of call and response singing originating in Kelantan . It is well known throughout the Peninsular through local television and performing groups. A dikir barat group, which may be of any size, is led by a tukang karut who makes up poems and sings them as he goes along. The chorus echoes in response, verse by verse. Dikir barat groups usually perform during various festive occassions, and their poems are usually light entertainment and may be about any topic, but are not religious in nature. The chorus traditionally consists of all men, but modern groups, especially those performing on television, often include women. Traditionally, no musical instruments are used, the singing being accompanied instead by rhythmic clapping and energetic body movements. Some groups however do use a pair of frame drums or rebana, a shallow gong and a pair of maracas, for accompaniment.

In a typical dikir barat performance, the group will perform two segments. The first is led by the tok juara, who is often the person in charge of the musical training of the group. This first segment usually contains the more complex musical arrangements, and will likely feature the awok-awok singing in unison with the tok juara, as well as responsorial segments of singing, similar to what the tukang karut does with the awok-awok, later in the performance. Though musically more complex than what will follow, the first segment is seen as the "low-key" segment of the performance.

The creative leader of a dikir barat group is the tukang karut. The tukang karut is usually a former tok juara who was promoted for his talent in creating spontaneous lyrics, for it his ability to do this that establishes the reputation of the dikir barat group. Leading the awok-awok (chorus) during the second and concluding segment of the performance, the tukang karut sings pantuns—most of which are likely original and improvised on the occasion of the performance, but some which may be known to the audience. (Pantuns are an oral poetry form indigenous to the Malay region, and are not exclusive to the dikir barat.) That the dikir barat uses pantuns does not mean that it is a performance of poetry. The tukang karut is expected to compose lyrics that touch upon life, like any poet, but he can also address social issues, legal matters, animal lifestyles, government regulations, and human foibles. The tone can be satirical, sarcastic, or simply humorous, but above all it is expected that it be clever. The tukang karut makes up and sings lyrics on the topic of the performance (which may be pre-established or simply the choice of the tukang karut), and the awok-awok sings the same lyrics back to him. During the performance, members of the awok-awok clap and perform rhythmic body movements, which bring energy to the performance.

Wayang Kulit

Wayang is an Indonesian and Malay word for theatre. When the term is used to refer to kinds of puppet theater, sometimes the puppet itself is referred to as wayang. "Bayang", the Javanese word for shadow or imagination, also connotes "spirit." Performances of shadow puppet theater are accompanied by gamelan in Java, and by "gender wayang" in Bali.

Wayang Kulit is a popular shadow puppet show in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, especially those in Kelantan and Terengganu, and also in Johor. The origin of the theatre is still remained a mistery, but it was brought to Malaya hundreds of years ago.

Wayang Kulit is a very unique form of theatre employing the principle of light and shadow. The puppets are crafted from buffalo hide and mounted on bamboo sticks. When held up behind a piece of white cloth, with an electric bulb or an oil lamp as the light source, shadows are cast on the screen.

Wayang Kulit plays are invariably based on romantic tales, especially adaptations of the classic Indian epics, "The Mahabarata" and "The Ramayana". Some of the plays are also based on local happenings (current issues) or other local secular stories. It is up to the conductor or "Tok Dalang" to decide his direction.

The Tok Dalang is the genius behind the entire performance. It is he who sits behind the screen and narrates the story. With a traditional orchestra in the background to provide a resonant melody and its conventional rhythm, the Tok Dalang modulates his voice to create suspense thus heightening the drama. Invariably, the play climaxes with the triumph of good over evil

Mak Yong 

Mak Yongis traditional dance drama of Kelantan, Malaysia. According to UNESCO, Mak Yong appeared well before the Islamization of the country but was banned in the year 1991 after the Islamic Party of Malaysia took control of the state.

A ritual Mak Yong performance is more elaborate than that staged for entertainment, combining shamanism, feasting the spirits and dance theatre. It reflects the deep, mystical significance of Mak Yong's stories and dances, and its original aim to serve as a conduit to the spirit world. Ritual performances are enacted for spiritual healing, to pay homage to a teacher and for the graduation of a performer.

The late Cik Ning was a leading Mak Yong performer in the 1980s

Wau Bulan (Moon-Kite)

Wau bulan is an intricately designed Malaysian moon-kite (normally with floral motifs) that is traditionally flown by men in the Malaysian state of Kelantan. It's one of Malaysia's national symbols, along some others being the kris and hibiscus. The logo of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) is based on this kite.There are many type of wau in Malaysia. Each with its own speciality.Wau kucing(cat kite) and wau merak(peacock kite) are some of them.

Unique to the east coast state of Kelantan, these waus or giant flying kites are often as big as a man, measuring about 3.5 metres from head to tail. It is the largest kite around and is capable of soaring to great heights. Not surprisingly, kite-flying here is a sport for men as some kites require at least two grown up men to handle. Most of the patterns are based on local flora and fauna like birds, animals and flowers.

It usually fitted with a stringed bow which emits a soft, wailing sound when flown. Each kite is lavishly pasted with colorful designs and a work of art in it its own right. Kites are flown throughout the year but especially after the full moon harvest.

Indeed, so remarkable is the Wau Bulan that the national carrier, the Malaysian Airline System, has chosen it as its logo, symbolising controlled flight.

Gasing (top-spinning)

The "Gasing" is a traditional game and it is a favorite pastime among the East Coast Malays, especially those in the Kelantan State.

The "gasing" or top is about the size of a dinner plate and may weigh up to 5.5 kg! Spinning one is hardly child's play as it requires great dexterity and precise timing. After it is launched, the gasing is quickly scooped off the ground with a thin wooden bat and transferred onto a metal receptacle on a short wooden post. An expert top-spinner can make a perfectly balanced gasing spin for as long as two hours at a stretch, although, according to local belief, a top will spin for 24 hours or more if a spirit enters it!

GASING The making of a good top begins with the selection a fine piece of hard wood. In Kelantan and Terengganu, a few species are normally used. Even then, only the base and upper roots or the portion where a branch joins the trunk are acceptable.

The wood takes a few weeks to dry naturally. It is then shaped into a discus. For metal top, the edge has to accurately grooved in order to have a good grip of the metal rim. A good top requires perfect symmetry which is an important attribute to longer spinning time. From start to finish, a good giant metallic top might need four to six weeks to complete.

Why People Smoke

Most people start smoking when they are in their teens and are addicted by the time they reach adulthood. Some have tried to quit but have returned to cigarettes because smoking is such a strong addiction. It is a habit that is very difficult to break. There are many different reasons why people smoke.

Three of the main reasons that young people smoke are to look mature, to be like their friends, and to experiment. Since teens see older people all around them smoking, especially their parents and relatives, they smoke to act older. If their friends or peers smoke, they may feel pressured into doing the same to be accepted. The last reason is the excitement of experimenting with something that is forbidden. In Massachusetts it is against the law for anyone under 18 years old to smoke. Usually parents do not allow their under age teens to smoke. Therefore, smoking becomes very attractive. It is exciting to get cigarettes and sneak away to smoke without being caught.

Adults smoke for other reasons. They may have a lot of stress and pressures because of economic and personal problems. They may be unemployed or working but not making enough money to take care of themselves and their families. They may be homeless, or they may be dealing with alcohol or cocaine/heroin addictions. Some may be in bad marriages or relationships in which there is physical and/or verbal abuse. All these people may smoke to feel relaxed or to give them energy while going through a hard time.

Whether young or old, some people smoke to control their weight. Smokers, on the average, weigh seven pounds less than non-smokers. Smoking reduces a person's appetite. It lessens his/her sense of taste and smell. This could be why ex-smokers gain weight after quitting cigarettes. Food tastes and smells so much better.

Finally, there are people who say they love to smoke. Smoking gives them pleasure. It just makes them feel good.

Wi-Fi Part 1/3

Definition:
"Wi-Fi" is a type of wireless networking protocol that allows devices to communicate without cords or cables. Wi-Fi is technically an industry term that represents a type of wireless local area network (LAN) protocol based on the 802.11 IEEE network standard. It's the most popular means of communicating data wirelessly, within a fixed location.

"Wi-Fi" is a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance an international association of companies involved with wireless LAN technologies and products.

Examples:
There are many wi-fi hotspots available to the public today, including airports, hotels, Starbucks, Panera Bread, and other free wi-fi hotspots.

How Wi-Fi Works
Wi-Fi works with no physical wired connection between sender and receiver by using radio frequency (RE) technology, a frequency within the electromagnetic spectrum associated with radio wave propagation. When an RF current is supplied to an antenna, an electromagnetic field is created that then is able to propagate through space.

Wi-Fi Support
Wi-Fi is supported by many applications and devices including video game consoles, home networks, PDAs,mobile phones, major operating systems, and other types of consumer electronics. Any products that are tested and approved as "Wi-Fi Certified" (a registered trademark) by the Wi-Fi Alliance are certified as interoperable with each other, even if they are from different manufacturers.

10. Lagi…Kawan tu macam ape ye??? Hmmmm…Haa…Kawan tu macam AWAK LA… Bila saya tulis artikel, awak akan baca dengan teliti sampai habis…

Persahabatan…

Pujangga pernah berkata, persahabatan yang tidak jujur umpama meniti buih di lautan. Hamparan buih nan memutih, hanya indah di luaran namun melewatinya bererti menuju ke jurang kehancuran .Mencari sahabat sejati bukanlah mudah….ramai yang bersama berkongsi suka, namun kurang yang ingin menemani kita meniti duka.


Sahabat sejati nilainya tiada bandingan. Dia ibarat berlian yang terbenam di dasar lumpur. Meskipun berbalut kekotoran, gemerlap sinarnya terserlah jua. Sahabat sejati juga menjunjung erti setiakawan, kejujuran dan bertanggugjawab. Sama bergembira di waktu senang, membimbing dan membantu sewaktu diri tergelincir dari batasan.


Meskipun mungkin menegur itu mungkin disalahtafsirkan, tetapi atas dasar tanggungjawab sebagai sahabat….diteruskannya juga. Sahabat sejati tidak semestinya perlu berada di sisi kita setiap masa. Mungkin dalam setahun, pertemuan dengannya boleh dihitung dengan jari. Namun, hubungan dalaman yang erat terjalin sebati di dalam jiwa. Biarpun jauh, nilai persahabatan yang sedemikian akan tergenggam erat dalam diari ingatan.


Menurut Imam Ghazali, persahabatan itu harus dilandaskan dengan jiwa yang bersih.Malah, Rasulullah S.A.W pernah bersabda:”Tidak sempurna iman kamu jika kamu tidak mengasihi kawan lebih drp kamu mengasihi diri sendiri”.Begitulah besarnya pengertian persahabatan dalam islam bersandarkan konsep persaudaraan. Justeru itu, marilah kita bersama2 merenung dan mengamalkan hak-hak persaudaraan dan persahabatan seperti yang digariskan di dalam Kitab Bimbingan Mukminin- Imam Ghazali ini.

1) Hak dalam harta

dalam sebuah hadith ada disebutkan bahawa Rasulullah s.a.w bersabda yang bermaksud: Perumpamaan dua org saudara adalah seperti dua tangan yang satu membersihkan yang lainnya…… H.R dailami. Hadith ini menyebutkan bahawa dalam persahabatan itu perlu ade saling bantu membantu dalam menunaikan tujuan yang satu.tujuan yang utama itu ialah bahawa kita sebagai sahabat perlu memberikan sahamnya secara bersama2 baik dalam keadaan suka dan duka ,gembira dan sengsara.

2) Hak dalam memberi pertolongan dengan tenaga dan lain-lain

salah satunya adalah hak untuk memenuhi keperluan sahabat. .Apabila seorang kawan berhajatkan bantuan dan kita pula mampu untuk menolongnya, bantulah dia..dengan disertai wajah yang manis,ramah tamah, ikhlas dan air muka yang gembira untuk menunjukkan bahawa…..kita suka apabila sahabat kita itu meminta bantuan drp kita.

Seorang ulama pernah berkata: Perhatikanlah saudara-saudaramu itu dalam 3 persoalan iaitu jikalau ada yg sakit, tinjaulah dan jikalau ada yang dalam kesibukan, berikanlah pertolongan dan jika ada yang dalam kealphaan, maka peringatkanlah ia………Dalam hal ini Allah taala ade berfirman:

“Orang2 mukmin ialah yang saling kasih-mengasihi antara sesama mereka itu” ayatullah ini menunjukkan supaya kita saling sayang menyayangi dan kasih mengasihi dengan sahabat2 kita.

3) Hak dalam lidah dan hati

Ada dua perkara iaitu berdiam diri dan berkata-kata. Berdiam diri maksudnya, sebagai seorang sahabat yang baik..seharusnya kita tidak boleh bercakap2 tentang keaiban sahabat..bahkan perintah menutup aib org lain juga..perlu dipraktikkan kepada seluruh umat manusia..Tidak menyebarkan keburukan sahabat baik semasa sahabat berada di depan ataupun tidak. Dan jika sahabat itu bercerita kepada kita tentang rahsianya, tidak wajarlah kita menceritakan kepada sahabat2 yang lain pula.

Sabda Rasulullah s.a.w:

“Barangsiapa yang menutup cela saudaranya, maka Allah ta’ala akan menutupi celanya di dunia dan akhirat” Riwayat Ibnu Majah. Dalam riwayat lain ada menyebutkan:

Sabda Rasulullah: “dua org yang duduk bercakap2 itu harus disertai dengan amanat.Tidak halal salah seorang di antara keduanya itu menyiarkan mengenai saudaranya itu akan sesuatu yang tidak disenangi olehnya

” H.R Hakim”

Sebaliknya pula jika ada perkara baik atau pujian sampaikanlah berita2 gembira pada sahabat itu. Rasulullah pernah bersabda:”Mohonlah perlindungan Allah dari pada tetangga yang jahat, apabila melihat kebaikan org lain ia selalu menutupinya dan apabila ia nampak keburukan, ia selalu menampak-nampakkannya H.R Bukhari.

Dengan berkata-kata pula,ialah saling nasihat menasihati,mengenali dengan lebih mendalam lagi sahabat2 dengan cara berkomunikasi. Sabda Rasulullah s.a.w: “Apabila seseorang dari kamu semua mencintai saudaranya,hendaklah memberitahukan hal itu kepadanya” H.R Abu Dawud,Tirmidzi dan Hakim. maknanya di sini..kita bagitaulah kepada sahabat kita yang kita menyukainya..agar selepas itu..sahabat akan lebih sayang kepada kita.

Selain itu, salah satu cara menunaikan hak sahabat ialah memanggilnya dengan gelaran yang paling disukai oleh sahabat itu. Ini akan lebih menggembirakannya.

Umar r.a pernah berkata: “Ada 3 perkara yang dapat menjernihkan kamu mengenai kecintaanmu kepada saudara2mu..iaitu, engkau mendahului mengucapkan salam sewaktu bertemu dengannya,hendaknya engkau memberikan ruang tempat duduk untuknya di dalam majlis dan hendaklah kau panggil ia dengan nama yang paling disukainya”

4) Hak dalam memberi kemaafan

Memaafkan saudara adalah satu perbuatan mulia..baik kesalahan itu dilakukan secara sengaja ataupun tidak.Jika kesalahan sahabat itu bertentangan dengan agama, wajiblah menasihatinya dengan ramah dan lemah lembut. Seorang ulama pernah berkata: “Kemuliaan hati ialah dengan jalan memberi maaf kepada kesalahan2 sahabat2mu”

5 )Hak dalam mendoakan

Mendoakan sahabat baik semasa hayatnya ataupun matinya.Doakanlah kesejahteraan dan kejayaan saudara2 sebagaimana kita mendoakan untuk diri kita sendiri. Sabda Rasulullah s.a.w: “Apabila seorang itu mendoakan untuk saudaranya di kala tidak berhadapan dengannya, maka berkatalah malaikat:Kamu pun menerima sebagaimana doamu itu”

Erti Cinta Sejati

Sifat Cinta

Cinta itu suci, mahal dan tinggi tarafnya. Sifat cinta itu sempurna. Jika tidak, cinta akan cacat. Itulah cinta sebenar cinta.

Cinta Wujud Sejak Dilahirkan

Rasa cinta sedia wujud di dalam jiwa manusia sejak manusia itu lahir ke dunia. Cuma manusia akan melalui tahap-tahap kelahiran cinta bermula dari cinta kepada belaian ibu, membawa kepada cinta kepadakekasih dan akhirnya setelah puas mencari cinta suci, maka akan cinta kepada Tuhan Wujudnya cinta itu tidak dapat dilihat tapi dapat dirasa dan cinta sebenar cinta itu suci murni serta putih bersih.

Cinta Bersedia

Bila sampai masanya di setiap tahap-tahap cinta, maka Tuhan menjadikan manusia itu bersedia menerima cinta itu. Pada mulanya jiwa itu bersedia menerima cinta, lantas sedia pula untuk berkongsi rasa kewujudan dengan dikasihi. Sedia untuk mengikat setia serta saling memahami. Setia untuk dipertanggungjawapkan kerana cinta. Sedia untuk menyerah diri pada yang dicintai.

Cinta Itu Indah

Walaupun kewujudan cinta tidak bisa dilihat, tetapi cinta itu indah dan cantik. Cantiknya itu tulin dan tidak ia bertopeng. Bukan saja ia cantik malah suci murni, bercahaya gemerlap dan putih bersih.

Cinta Itu Mengharap Balasan

Cinta antara manusia itu berkehendak kepada jodoh atau pasangan, dari diri yang punya persamaan, dari diri yang asalnya satu. Bila dapat yang dicari, bermakna cinta itu menganggap telah bertemu yang paling sesuai dan secocok dengan jiwanya, untuk bersatu kembali. Kehendak itu timbal balik sifatnya kerana manusia dalam bercinta tidak hanya menerima tapi juga menerima.

Cinta Itu Menakluki

Sifat cinta itu ingin menguasai. Dia mahu yang dikasihinya itu hanya khusus untuk

dirinya. Dia tidak mahu ianya dikongsi dengan orang lain. Sifat ini menuntut hak untuk mencintai dan dicintai. Tapi, dalam pada ingin menakluki, ia juga ingin ditakluki sepenuhnya.

Cinta Itu Mengetahui

Pada asasnya sebenarnya cinta itu mengetahui. Orang yang bercinta tahu siapa yang patut

dicintainya. Cinta tidak perlu bertanya. Manusia boleh jatuh cinta tanpa membaca ilmiah atau novel tentang cinta. Mereka tahu apa yang perlu dilakukan. Tapi, cinta cuma tahu bercinta. Ia tidak tahu akan peraturan cinta jika tiada diberikan panduan.

Cinta Itu Hidup

Cinta adalah ibarat manusia, boleh berputik, lalu mekar serta boleh layu dan gugur. Cinta itu punya deria dan perasaan. Cinta mendengar cinta, berkata cinta, melihat

cinta. Cinta ada segala-galanya. Sayang, benci, cemburu, gembira, sedih, tenang, tertekan, ketawa dan menangis. Cinta itu hidup sampai satu ketika ia akan menemui mati.Tapi ramai orang berharap agar cinta itu kekal selagi dia masih hidup dan tetap hidup walaupun telah mati.

Cinta Itu Suci

Sebagaimana yang banyak dikatakan orang, cinta itu suci. Sucinya cinta bukan bermakna ia tidak mengharap balasan. Cinta mengharap balasan cinta. Sucinya cinta bermakna ia tidak bernoda dan tidak pula berdosa Itulah sifat asal cinta, ia suci bagaikan anak yang baru lahir. Mereka yang kenal erti cinta akan cuba mengekalkan cinta itu sesuci mungkin. Mengekalkan cinta suci bermakna menjauhkan ia dari godaan nafsu yang tidak ada batasan. Kerana nafsulah cinta suci jadi bernoda dan berdosa.

Cinta Itu Mempesona

Cinta itu bukan saja indah, tapi mempersonakan. Ia bukan kerana cinta itu nakal sifatnya tapi kerana ia suci dan bersih. Ia adalah sebagaimana anda melihat pada anak kecil yang comel dan

bersih. Dia senyum pada anda dan merapati anda. Anda terpesona kerana bukan saja ianya comel, tapi kerana dia adalah insan yang tidak berdosa. Kerana sifat cinta yang mempersona ini selalunya manusia itu berbuat silap bila bercinta.

Apa saja yang dilakukan oleh kekasihnya…mempersonakannya dan nampak cantik serta betul walaupun itu adalah satu dosa dan akan menodai cinta itu sendiri. Itulah juga yang menyebabkan orang yang bercinta itu walaupun seorang yang bijaksana, akan menjadi bodoh kerana pesona cinta. Akal itu mampu dikalahkan oleh nafsu. Nafsu itu tidak bisa dikalahkan melainkan jika anda sentiasa ingat kepada Tuhan Maha Pencipta.

Apakah itu Bukti Cinta?

Cinta perlukan bukti. Ramai orang percaya bahawa bukti cinta itu ialah mengorbankan atau menyerahkan apa saja yang kekasih anda mahu. Mereka percaya jika itu tidak berlaku, maka cinta itu tidak tinggi nilainya. Sebenarnya anggapan itu tidak tepat. Jika anda beri semua yang dia mahu,apakah yang tinggal pada anda? Benarkah dia cinta pada anda bila dia mahukan pengorbanan anda?

Cinta sejati tidak memusnahkan atau merosakkan diri kekasih yang dicintai. Malah ia menjaga agar kekasih tetap suci dan selamat sebagaimana sucinya cinta itu sendiri.
