28 Tahun aku hidup di muka bumi ini...seringkali ku tertanya dalam diri...apakah hidup jenis yg aku mahukan?...apakah ini matlamatnya??...adakah kebahagiaan utk diriku?..atau aku ini hanya akan menyusahkan org di sekelilingku?...
Tidak lama lagi,bulan puasa&raya akan tiba..akan ada perubahan dalam hidup ku?..apakah ada?..atau itu kata semata-mata?..demi mencari sinar itu...
Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living.
