And then, one day, she quietly died. And everything you never did camecrashing down like thunder.
"Rock me baby, rock me all night long."The hand who rocks the cradle...may rock the world".
Let us take a moment of the time just to pay tribute/show appreciation tothe person called MOM though some may not say it openly to their mother .
There's no substitute for her. Cherished every single moment.Though at times she may not be the best of friends, may not agree to ourthoughts, she is still your mother!!! She will be there for you...to listento your woes, your braggings, your frustations, etc.Ask yourself.....have you put aside enough time for her, to listen toher "blues" of working in the kitchen, her tiredness???Be tactful, loving and still show her due respect though you may havea different view from hers. Once gone, only fond memories of the past andalso regrets will be left.
DON'T TAKE FOR GRANTED THE THINGS CLOSEST TO YOUR HEART.LOVE HER MORE THAN U LOVE YOURSELF.LIFE IS MEANINGLESS WITHOUT HER...
Its not late yet...................
best wishes,

Maafkan Bunda ya, Nak...

Matamu terpejam terlelap dalam buaian malam Pasrah, tak berdosa tak berdaya

Maafkan bunda ya, Nak
Atas teriakan keras bunda tadi pagi saat kau merengek Menginginkan bunda tetap ada disampingmu Bunda harus bekerja, nak Menambah rupiah demi rupiah untuk sekadar menyambung kebutuhan kita Kelak, pada waktunya kau akan tahu Bahwa semua yang kita dapat tak begitu saja jatuh dari langit Seperti dongeng yang seringkali kau dengar.

Maafkan Bunda ya, nak Atas cubitan gemas Bunda saat kau menumpahkan air minum diatas paper work yang baru selesai bunda kerjakan semalaman dan matamu memandang bunda penuh ketakutan tanganmu berusaha meraih tangan Bunda untuk sekadar mendapat kata maaf Tapi saat itu Bunda marah, Kesabaran Bunda melayang entah kemana Dan Bunda abaikan tatapan maafmuWajah bersalahmu.. rona sedihmu…

Maafkan Bunda ya, nak Ketika sore itu, sepulang Bunda bekerja kau merajuk Minta ditemani menata lego menjadi sebuah istana megah impianmu Lalu bunda marah saat kau lempar mainanmu Tanpa Bunda sadari betapa seharian kau menunggu Bunda di rumah Dan sebelum terlelap tadi,Bibirmu yang mungil mencium BundaMengucapkan selamat tidur dan berkata “Bunda, aku sayang sekali sama Bunda…”Dan bibir Bunda kelu sekali Mata bunda hanya mengembun
Ah, sayang… andai Bunda dapat menebus Semua kesalahan yang pernah Bunda lakukan padamu di hari kemarin…?
Andai ada hal terbaik yang mampu Bunda lakukan untukmu…?
Bunda masih punya kesempatan itu kan?

"masih ! Bundaku sayang, namun ...!
"Bunda, bilakah hanya Ayah yang bekerja ? "

Ulang Tahun Mamah Bandung(Enin)

Hari ini tepat ultah mamah yang ke73 tahun Alhamdulillah mamah masih diparingi segerwaras, sehat wal afiat. Enin itu panggilan buat mamah ibunya bunda. Athira, Anissa dan Indie selalu mendoakan enin. Kenangan indah ini di kenjeran tahun 2006, ketika enin dan abah berkunjung ke surabaya.

Saat ini, bunda hanya bisa mendoakan enin, atas semua jasa-jasa enin yang telah melahirkan bunda, memelihara dan menyekolahkan bunda, sehingga bunda dapat bekerja seperti saat sekarang ini. Karena hari ini bertepatan dengan Ultah Serikat Karyawan, bunda sangat terharu.

Alhamdulillah bunda panjatkan puji syukur kehadirat Allah swt, bahwasanya sembilan tahun yang lalu, bunda menitipkan athira juga menitipkan diri bunda juga di rumah enin, saat bunda kerja sambil kuliah. ..

Dorongan dan semangat Enin terhadap bunda agar bunda bisa kuliah sambil kerja dan tengah hamil pertama, sangat memberi suport yang sangat berarti untuk masa depan bunda hingga saat ini. Bunda belajar banyak dari mamah, perjuangan , semangat belajar tanpa lelah dan mengeluh dititipi cucu, padahal selama ini tidak ada yang berani menitipkan cucu pada enin.

Subhanallah dikarenakan bunda hamil, kerja dan kuliah malam, sehingga mamah(enin) tersentuh hatinya untuk merawat athira, bagitu juga dengan Abah bandung bergantian momong cucu, agar anaknya berhasil lulus kuliah sambil kerja dan tengah hamil tua. Bunda percaya semua ini karena dengan ijin dari Allah swt.

Maafkan bunda, mamah(enin) sampai saat ini bunda belum sukses, InsyaAllah berkat doa mamah(enin) kesuksesan itu sudah sangat dekat tinggal selangkah lagi, sangat-sangat dekat, semoga Allah selalu mengingatkan bunda untuk selalu ingat dan dapat memberikan kebahagiaan lahir bathian untuk mamah(enin) tercinta.

Saat ini dan kedepan Bunda berlimpah kasih sayang, berlimpah kesehatan lahir bathin dan berlimpah kekayaan harta yang tak ternilai harganya, sangat berharga yaitu ketiga anak sholehah semua diberikan pada bunda dengan ijin Allah. Alhamdulillah amin.

Hadiah terindah buat enin dari semua cucu enin yang sholeh dan sholehah, yang ada diSurabaya dan di Bandung, Semoga Enin bahagia mendengar kesholehan cucunya semua amin. Doakan semoga semua cucu sholehah enin dapat menjadi penghapal dan pengamal Al-qur'an dari sejak kecil hingga akhir hayat mereka amin.
