There Are Always Two Sides of The Story

Mak was at my house for one night and we were having breakfast together when she came up with that question again:-

Eshhh Akhil Hayy ni apa nak jadi..Dah la Ustad


Hmm.. Mak has been very concern with Akhil's recent matter. I can bet 100 per cent she is not the only one. It was not the first time she asked me that. A few days ago she asked me the same thing too. I told her I would have to wait for Akhil to call me first. Ha Ha Ha. (As if I am Waheeda).

It s not that I want to take sides. But I just cant understand why people love to jump into conclusion and make judgment by just listening to one side of the story. I just dont get it. I always believe that you have to give leeway for the other person to justify his actions or at least call for his defence. When only one person comes up and tells her/his story, you should only listen and not pass any judgment unless and until you hear the other person's side of the story. Just because one person is making all the noise it doesnt mean that she/he is right.

I always remember what Nada (ha ah Nada) said that some mothers always entertain their child who is louder. Just because one child has been pestering for the cookies, it doesnt mean that his quiet brother/sister doesnt want the cookies too.

We always tend to give favourable judgment to the one who is more vocal. Even when two children are playing and suddenly one of them comes to you crying, the first thing that will come to our mind is that his friend must have bullied or beaten him. But for all you know, the wailing kid was the one who started the fight. And just because he was in tears, it doesnt mean that he is innocent.

And with all the fuss over Akhil. Oh come on... its their marriage. He has the right not to divulge anything that he doesnt want to. Whatever the story between the three (?) of them, its only between them. Nobody really knows whats the real story behind anybody's marriage. What we see sometimes is only what they want you to see. Thats why its such a shock when a supposedly happy couple got separated beacuse a couple who hold hands in public do not necessarily cuddle in their bedroom.


And yes, a quiet child is always being taken for granted. And sometimes even an adult lady too .... ehemm.. aku kah... kah kah kah (its a laugh ok )


Ok
This is THREE sides of the story


:-p

but ann, i always believe that when someone put her/himself to be a public figure, he/she must realize that this kind of things will happen sooner or later and be prepare or at least try their best not to engage in such 'scandal' ke apa ke that can give negative impact later on. Kita tak boleh tutup mulut org, kita tak boleh suruh org lain berfikir mcm mana kita berfikir sb manusia ni dah lahiriahnya mcm2 ada. we ourselve la yg kena jaga diri dan perlakuan. To me, once u chose to be a puclic figure, there's no such things as privacy anymore. U are actually open ur life to the puclic. Even if u nak pergi bersuka ria dgn kawan2 pun u have to think pro & cons when u r a puclic figure, semuanya kena jaga. Not just by mere say... "saya pendakwah, saya tak akan buat mende sumbang"... how can u convince others to believe with it or to go against it? he is lucky sb dia ustaz mungkin ada yg 50-50 sokong dia but if dia public figure yg lain... like norman dgn memey... aduhhh like that one la jadinyaaaaaa lagi haru kut :)

ps: sendiri mau ingatla kalau dh jadi public figure tu... :)cuba kalau i yg buat statement mcm tu... cehhh takde sape heran. sotkobar pun tak hingin nak interbiu tau hahaha
