Hakuna Matata!

Hakuna Matata…I first heard or learned the phrase from a Disney movie- The Lion King which my younger brother was fond of. It simply means No Worries! How I wish that I could just do that in my everyday life…Sigh…Last nite,I realized that it is hard not to worry about little things as it generally affects you as well. I went back home with my loyal passengers when it was about 6.10 o’clock in the evening. We finally reached Bangi around 6.35pm. You see, I’m not a fast driver as I am being careful not to put much pressure to my body as I’m pregnant. After a very slow and steady ride, I’ve decided to pay a visit at my favourite groceries to buy some raw materials (fish and vege) for my dinner. At first I thought of buying some chicken for our dinner but then I remembered that my other half had grown tired of eating chicken for these past few days,so I bought fish instead. Right after that, I paid another stop at Lengkuas and bought the ever tasty Tom Yam Campur. I dunno why but I really find that the Tom Yam somehow tasted exactly like the one at Jack’s Seafood in Desa Pandan. Surprise…surprise!! Later I went straight back home. I was surprised to find that my husband had not yet reached home. I don’t really want to spend time in the house alone as I don’t feel comfortable to do so. But nevertheless, I walked up straight to the house and watched some kind of a programme on the TV while waiting for Maghrib prayer. Deep inside my head, I was calculating that maybe I could performed my Maghrib prayer together with my husband. So I waited for a while…..while waiting, I also managed to scrap the fish and prepared them for cooking. I waited till it was almost 8 o’clock. Afraid that I’d missed my Maghrib prayer, I decidec to performed it alone. I just coudn’t afford to wait anymore. Later one, I went to the kitchen to prepared the vegetables. But still I couldn’t focused to the chores as I was WORRIED. Bad annd nasty thoughts came to my mind. I shooed the thoughts away by praising a silence prayer that everything is going to be Okay! However, my heart ruled my mind. I broke down and cried. With tears running down my face, I fetched my shawl and decided to wait for my husband at the Lobby. That was the least that I can do to gain comfort. After a few minutes, I saw the shadows of his motocycle. I had mixed feelings. I knew that I could burst down to tears any minutes now…and I also knew that I could leap up of joy at that moment. Finally, I went with the former. My husband was clueless and all that he can say was, “Don’t cry….y’know I have a lot of work to do”….I clung tightly to him and can’t stop crying. Actually I was a bit embarassed as I knew that I was acting a bit childish, but still I can’t help it! There’s ain’t no HAKUNA MATATA!!!!!! I apologised later for being such a worri-ER and the nite ended up as it is supposed to be…Me and my husband enjoying our dinner…Hehehehe…
