Blue Lagoon.. Where are you?

Taken from google

The title sounds so heart-breaking ey? 

Last Wesak Day, my circle of friends and me went to the Hutan Simpan Ayer Hitam, Puchong. I never knew about this place before. To be honest, I took it easy. And I regretted it. 😆

The day before that, when they sent me the picture of the blue lagoon which is the blue crystal clear waterfall., I was just like “wow, beautiful”. I just decided to go and it’s not because of the place, but it is because of I was longing for our weekly sharing. Obviously, I thought it is just like Air Terjun Bukit Wang, Kedah. Which is, it got craved stairs and some resting places such as pondok wakaf. 

Beautiful. Fantastic.

But the imagination went wrong once we start our hiking…

Because I’ve been asked to give a reflection about the hiking, I think it is better if I get to the points now. Hehe.😉

1) When a suffer is not a suffer.

First, it’s not a riddle okay. When a suffer is not a suffer. That’s what I felt. You know, to go hiking with a palazzo and the bag (which I promised myself only will bring the bag to the shopping mall), is not the best thing I ever do in my life. But to be honest, I didn’t even notice this, I feel very light-hearted and just noticed all this once I already in the car. 

What I can say here, if you have a goal in your life, and you feel like you’re in need of something, you’ll go for it. As for me, I really need the sharing. And even though it’s hundreds or maybe thousand meters from the ground-level, I don’t mind. Exactly, because of I was longing for that. After all, Allah owns everything between the earth and the sky, and the whole universe.

2) Allah closes that door, because He knows you might fall.

Actually, we were trying to find the blue lagoon. Every time, we bumped with anyone along the trails, they told us, “Oh yea, you almost there”. We were not only went up and down in the woods, but also walk in the river. Literally, walk in and along the river. How determined we were!😆

But we cannot find the blue lagoon. When we are enjoying our time walking in the river, one of my beloved sister falls because she stumbling by the deep hole. My friend and I were running towards her, and my friend also stumbling by it. It taught me a lesson.

You know what, the blue lagoon that we’re trying to find has exactly the same hole beneath it with a depth of 13 METRES. Here again, think how only that ‘deep’ little hole, already makes you guys hurt. How about the deeper one? Allahu.

Who knows maybe He planned for us not to find the blue lagoon, because one of us might fall into it when we uncontrollably excited playing in the blue lagoon. Right?

It same goes to the rule of life. Sometimes, Allah closes the door that you’re gazing at all this time, (be it is a major that you dream to take or maybe the university that you aim). It is all because He doesn’t want you to fall soon after you entered the 'door'.

3) Woods make world more peaceful and harmony.

This is the thought-provoking part. If you realized, along the trails we always met someone who is totally a stranger and from various races and religions. We were greeting and give salam to each other with a full big smile. Why can’t we do the same when we are on the ground-level that we stepping on it every single day. Why suddenly when you reach ground level, everything becomes ‘awkward’ and ‘cold’ again? 

Is it because of when you’re down there, you have higher position? Or is it because of you already felt safe? Or maybe because of down there, you wear a better and high-standard dress compared to me? Or up there, only few people that you meet so it is easier to greet everyone? Why is it actually?

It makes me feel like, the woods can bring us more harmony and peaceful life. That is because of up there, you know that maybe you gonna need each other. If anything happens to you up there, maybe he/she might be the one will help you. That is why we respect each other and try to become friend. Why can’t we do the same down here? When the world full of insecurity and mistrust.
