Number 3

Three years already? Feels more like three days. How time flies so fast. In my early twenties, me and few of my friends, we sort of made a pack. Our pack was “We will stay single as long as we can to enjoy bachelorhood and only will start to think about marriage when we reached 30 years-old. Guess what…I think I was the first person to broke the pack when I was 26, and so did some of my other friends which decided that its time to move on to family life. So now, most of the so called “Single till I’m 30” club members are married and also already have at least 1 child. Well that’s life. You never know what will hit you. You can make plans, stick to the plans, but sometimes Allah provides you with a better one.
The truth is, I never really miss bachelorhood live. Yes, we have some fun back then, I always enjoy hanging out with my friends but nothing beat what I have now with my family. Waking up every morning besides the person you love, seeing your precious little princess still in deep sleep with her cute tiny fingers move a little bit when you kiss her cheek, coming back home from crazy day in office and your daughter/son running towards you with the her most anxious and happy face before grabbing and hugging your leg, hanging out in the living room with your wife after dinner… chit chatting, gossiping, and so many other great little details that you experience in this live as a family men that makes you wonder, am I destined to be this lucky? I know I am not the richest person or the most famous person in the world, but the happiness that I feel is so great and real, I don’t need to fantasized about anything, my life is spectacular and I am thankful for Allah for everything in my life.
Time move so fast, I will be 30 next year and guess what, Allah revised my early plan, I am 4 years ahead of my plan. Now, there will always be at least 3 extra years of happiness in my whole life, no matter when I die. Alhamdulillah.
Oh, by the way…happy third anniversary Honey! I love you!!!
