..pakmat's haj..

..doing the pilgrimage to Makkah in the year 2011 was, without a doubt, the ultimate high in pakmat's life...never a jetsetter or a globetrotter, it was the first time that pakmat ventured far beyond the comfort of his shell...the well-wishes that he carried with him saw him set foot on a strange yet familiar land, more than 8000 kilometers away from home, along with a few million others of his faith, to converge on the House of God, Baitullah, and gathered on His plain, the plains of Arafat...

..it has left an indelible mark on his body, mind and soul...he left on the 15th of October, 2011 resolute in his affirmation that God is Great...and came back after 47 days on the 30th of November, the same year, more resolute in his affirmation that God is Greater...

..others before him had made the journey...as there will be others  after him..his children and his children's children...going through their own experiences, making their own private memories...similar in the overall, but unique to each and every one of them...as it was with pakmat...

...words are so inadequate..as it is with pictures...and so he wrote with his heart...scattered all over his blog...his memories interspersed with other jottings...until yesterday..he gathered all posts of his haj, and put them together in another blog...posting them like a book...as a record of his journey...for his children and grandchildren to read...for his friends...for anyone at all who would bother or care to...

Sy tidak tau apa ini cara kebetulan saja atau gimana. Yg jelas sy berani sumpah kalau sy berbohon. Kebetulan saja buka internet dpt nomer ini +6282354640471 Awalnya memang takut hubungi nomer trsbut. Setelah baca-baca artikel nya. ada nama Mbah Suro katanya sih.. bisa bantu orang mengatasi semua masalah nya. baik jalan Pesugihan maupun melalui anka nomer togel. Setelah dengar arahan nya bukan jg larangan agama atau jlan sesat. Tergantung dri keyakinan dan kepercayaan sja. Syukur Alhamdulillah benar2 sudah terbukti sekarang.
