polygamy... ha!

Rupe2ny, sume org berpoligami kat dunie ni. Only joking! Cam ramai da penah dgr cite ni. Anyway, this piece is an interesting read.

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives.

He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with
Rich robes and treated her to the finest of
delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always
showing her off to neighbouring kingdoms. However, he
feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confidant and
was always kind, considerate and patient with him.

Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in
her, and she would help him get through the difficult
times.

The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had
made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and
kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife.
Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice
of her!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was
short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered,I
now have four wives with me, but when I die, I'll be
all alone.'

Thus, he asked the 4th wife , 'I loved you the most,
endowed you with the finest clothing and showered
great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow
me and keep me company?'

'No way!', replied the 4th wife, and she walked away
without another word.

Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, 'I loved you all
my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep
me company?'

'No!', replied the 3rd wife. 'Life is too good! When you
die, I'm going to remarry!'

His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, 'I have always turned to you
for help and you've always been there for me.

When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?'

'I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!', replied
the 2nd wife. 'At the very most, I can only walk with
you to your grave.' Her answer struck him like a bolt of
lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: 'I'll go with you. I'll follow
you no matter where you go.'

The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She
was very skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and
neglect.

Greatly grieved, the King said, 'I should have taken
much better care of you when I had the chance!'

In truth, we all have the 4 wives in our lives:

Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and
effort we lavish in making it look good,
it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth.
When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how
much they have been there for us, the furthest they can
stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected in pursuit
of wealth, power and pleasures of the world.

However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us
wherever we go.

Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the
only part of us that will follow us to the throne
of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

Yup. Sebab busy sgt with other things, kiteny jiwa cam x terurus. Pegangan kite goyah, perasaan tak tenteram slalu wujud, sume sebab kite tak kasi can kat jiwa kite untuk menikmati kemanisan iman. So, peliharalah 'isteri' 1st kite sume, sebab in the end, tu je yg jadi bekalan kite.

'Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.'
