A Letter to My Baby

I want you to see, baby.

I want you to see that we’re

just a human as much as anybody.


That Mama sometimes cry and a little sappy, that she might even cry when she’s angry. Your Papa is generally funny but he might be quiet when he’s worry.


We love hard & play hard but of course we still fight, we talk good and do good but mistakes will still be made.


I want you to know that it is okay to be mad when you’re angry; to be sad when you’re lonely, to be jelly, to feel icky and to experience any emotions other than feeling happy.


Sometimes people still smile even when they do not feel so smiley. It’s the thing people do for many reasons, really. They are just complex with all of their story.


And we human often are difficult with feelings, but it is always good to let things out than to bottled it up. Because the explosion might not be pretty.


So please just be kind to everyone, baby.

Because we all deserve of being loved

just as much as everybody.


The messiness, the craze; the happy, worry and loneliness are just part of what being

a human is, and always will be.

The city of Malacca

I always love photography and this  piqturesque city is just a great fit for me. With its rich history and the red square that’s very touristy, this walkable city  is one of UNESCO’s world heritage;  along with Penang and its George  Town famous mural on the wall. Oh thank God my place is near this beautiful little town. It’s my third time here and  still, an all time favorite all in all. This time I’m here with hubby, hoping  next time we’ll be back with baby. Pretty sure he’ll enjoy this city  just as much as mommy. The vibrant color, its laidback atmosphere with beautiful lights show all over the city is really one to die for. This city has pulse, so alive in its own way. The city that instantly & completely feels  like home. I hope, oh I hope each of you also  has one particular city that hold your heart forever, I hope you find your  own home away from home.

The House

The house is the perfect copy of our old house. That’s why it’s very precious to me. Its front, the layout, the stairs, the room arrangements, down to the balcony. The place where both of my grandparents were still healthy. I’ve been missing him since yesterday, you know. And it didn’t dissipate until today, it gets worse. I hope he’s okay there. By this time I know that once someone is gone, you really never see them anymore. Not even in your dream. And I started to lose any ideas of how to see him, when his old photos begin to blur just as much as the memory. We miss you, Angku. We miss you so much and we don’t know how to deal with it.  I hope life after life treats you good. The only thing that we can give to you now is our prayer and our never ending love.  Please, can you just visit me in my dream from time to time? I’m just missing you a lot and it might’ve lessen the pain a little bit. We love you, Angku. Ananda Khaira Azizah, Pekanbaru, 11 Juli 2025. Hari Jumat, pukul...

Heart Will Tell

We were once 25 and 25. Young, wild, but never free. We were attracted so much with each other and being sure so well that we’re engaged on our first month of meeting one another;  married exactly six months later. And the rest is history. We travel, we eat, we laugh, we love. It was a straight out of an eat, pray, love movie-kind of relationship. But we also fight. We fight & flight, we learn hard to swallow our pride, we listen to each other’s bicker and snide, but we always  got our spouses back and side. Because they are our one, true love after all.  Marriage is a long shot on the long run but  it will be a joyful long-ness if you’re  in it with the right person. And the heart will tell. Your heart will tell you who, when & how this person will turn up.  And it will always; most definitely &  most certainly worth the wait 😊 Ananda Khaira Azizah, Pekanbaru, 19 Juli 2025.
