VERSATILE


"NOW who can tell me, what is the meaning of versatile?" Asked Sir Yahya to us as he wroted the 'new' word on the black board. Well, I know it is a rusted word in the dictionary, but it is certainly a new word for me :)

As fast as lightning, I stood up and spoke "Sir, versatile means all rounder" with full confidence while holding a Federal Chambers Advance Learners Dictionary. Yes, strike again!!! I am always the first to answer all of my teachers questions, just kidding, but apparently sometimes I can not answer it. It is just that all the bones in my body are saying that "You ought to be the one, man!!!." So I'll give my best shot when it comes to english.

"That's very good of you Ameen. Next time can you please give room for others to succeed." said Sir Yahya.

"Ok sir, I'll try to help others." sorry my bad...it is just that I want to win so badly man!!!

Ok thats just a story I made up partially. One part is real. I want to highlight here is the word versatile. Have you heard of the word? It means all-ronder.

If you put it into a sentence, exp: You have be a versatile student (You have to be an all-rounder student)>>It is the same.

This word urges us to be a master (PHD if nessesary) in everything we do. In every field you are in, you ought to be the man!!!

I may not be that person but I know someone who fits this character. It is our prophet Muhammad SAW. You see he is the greatest statesman, leader, judge, father, husband, friend, amir on the battlefield and he is the greatest teacher (mua'llim). Thats my prophet. I love him. And I should love him more that I love myself (do I?).

Other than the prophet SAW. I really know someone who maybe fits this deal. It is my brother. Not my younger bro, but my BIG bro.

HE is just two years older than me, but he has a face of a matured man (more to a father actually). You see, he was the one who taught me how to wear a kain (songket), to comb my hair. (That was the olden days)

Now, although he is taking medicine in UIA Kuantan. But he can paint like an artist (beautiful yeah), take pictures like a real photographer. People sometimes feel okward when a beautiful painting in my former high school was painted by a future doctor.

I known him since we were just babies. (he liked to bully me, hahaha)

What it takes to be versatile?

It takes everything. no pain no gain.

last words, live life to the fullest. Be sure to grab hold your life mission. to SEEK FOR THE LIGHT!!!

nice one amin..

hm.. well, i'm not really versatile, that's for sure..

nor a multi-tasker or an all rounder. but trying our best to at least be competent in what we do, and to improve bit by bit, would be nice, even if we are not versatile.. but yes, sometimes we do wish we are.. (^_^)

just my humble opinion.. wallahu'alam..
may Allah bless u

btw: okward/ awkward? or try using the word 'amazed'.. (sorry.. always pointing out these little stuff. hope u don't mind- if u do, tell me.. so i'll stop)

Little things make it more...i dunno what word is the best word to describe this)
