SEKADAR NASIHAT UNTUK KAUM HAWA
1. Untuk membentuk bibir yang menawan, ucapkan kata-kata kebaikan.
2. Untuk mendapatkan mata yang indah, carilah kebaikan pada setiap orang yang anda jumpai.
3. Untuk mendapatkan bentuk badan yang langsing, berbagilah makanan dengan mereka yang kelaparan.
4. Untuk mendapatkan rambut yang indah, mintalah seorang anak kecil untuk menyisirnya dengan jemarinya setiap hari.
5. Untuk mendapatkan sikap tubuh yang indah, berjalanlah dengan segala ilmu pengetahuan, dan anda tidak akan pernah berjalan sendirian. Manusia, jauh melebihi segala ciptaan lain, perlu senantiasa berubah, diperbaharui, dibentuk kembali, dan diampuni.
6. Jadi, jangan pernah kecilkan seseorang dari hati anda apabila anda sudah melakukan semuanya itu, ingatlah senantiasa, jika suatu ketika anda memerlukan pertolongan, akan senantiasa ada tangan terulur.
7. Dan dengan bertambahnya usia anda, anda akan semakin mensyukuri telah diberi dua tangan, satu untuk menolong diri anda sendiri, dan satu lagi untuk menolong orang lain.
8. Kecantikan wanita bukan terletak pada pakaian yang dikenakannya, bukan pada bentuk tubuhnya, atau cara dia menyisir rambutnya.
9. Kecantikan wanita terdapat pada matanya, cara dia memandang dunia. Kerana di matanyalah terletak gerbang menuju ke setiap hati manusia, di mana cinta dapat berkembang.
10. Kecantikan wanita, bukan pada kehalusan wajahnya, tetapi kecantikan yang murni, terpancar pada jiwanya, yang dengan penuh kasih memberikan perhatian dan cinta yang dia berikan dan kecantikan itu akan tumbuh sepanjang waktu.

SEJENAK....
SMALL THING, BIG FEEL
A young man was applying for a job in a big company. He had passed the first few tests, and now he was sitting in front of the general manager to have the final interview. After looking at the result of the test and his appearance, the general manager asked him, “What’s your ambition?”
“My ambition is to sit on your chair someday,” he answered.
“You know, it is not easy. You must work very hard for a long time. Do you understand this?”
The young man nodded
“What do your parents do?” the general manager continued.
“My father passed away when I was young, sir. My mother is the bread earner. She sends us to school.”
“Do you know your mother’s birthday?” again the manager asked.
“There is no tradition of celebrating birthdays in our family sir. I don’t know her birthday.”
“Well, young man. I have not made any decision whether to accept you or not, but I have one task for you. When you are home, do this small thing: wash your mother’s feet. Come back here tomorrow.”
He did not understand why the manager asked him to do this. It was certainly an extraordinary request. However, he was willing to do it since he wanted the job badly. In the evening, he led his mother to a chair. “Mom, you look so tired. Let me wash your feet.”
Surprised, the mother looked at her son and nodded. “My son, you’ve grown up now. You seem to start understanding life.”
He took a pail of warm water, and soaked his mother’s feet in it. He rubbed and massaged the fragile, wrinkled, and withered feet gently. Feeling the rough and flaky feet in his hands, he shed tears down his cheeks. “Thank you very much, Mom. So far you have been working very hard for me. Because of these feet I can be what I am today, “ he mumbled, trying hard to control his sobs. Then they hugged each other with a feeling of gratitude and relief.
The next day, the manager asked him, “Now tell me what you felt when you washed your mother’s feet.”
“When I washed them, I realized how much she loved me. She sacrificed everything, even herself, for her children. Seeing my mother’s wrinkled and fragile feet, I know that I have to work very well as a way to pay respect to her,” He said wholeheartedly.
Hearing this, the manager decided to accept him. He believed that a young man who knew how to be grateful and to repay the kindness of his parents was a human being with big compassion. And a man with compassion would work seriously, wit all his heart and responsibility.
