I think I have lived long enough in this world to figure out a liiiiiittle bit how it works. And what I noticed is stages is apparent in almost everything. If you understand the stages, you have a better chance at it.
For example. Cooking. Of course, cooking.
Stage 1. Getting the ingredients. That would mean going to the shops. Looking around, choosing, and buying. You must get moving first to get buying. And if the shop is not close buy, it can be alot of getting to.
Stage 2. Preparation. Washing, cleaning, cutting, peeling.
Stage 3. Cooking. First the oil, then the onions and garlic and if it is a Malay dish, it can take about 10 steps before it is ready, more if it is an intricate recipe.
Stage 4. More washing up.
Another example. Sewing a simple thing, say a table cloth.
Stage 1. Purchase the material. Must get moving too.
Stage 2. Planning. Cutting. Hemming.
Stage 3. Sewing and unpicking if you make a mistake.
Stage 4. Using the finished product.
The same applies to giving birth, to starting work, to building relationships, to living your life.
If life is giving you a hard time, remember you are going through some stage or other, probably the process of making you a better person.
Ok, I planned, InsyaAllah to bake an apple cake today. And I have just completed stage 1. If this cake turns out fine, will post the pictures.
