Benefits of Greenery

Besides being pleasing to the eye, greenery also contributes to the mental, physical and emotional well-being of people. The following studies identify the benefits children and youths can gain from regular exposure to greenery.

Better Grades and School Behaviour

In a study conducted by the American Institutes for Research, a group of sixth graders attended outdoor school for six weeks, while another group did not. During the outdoor programme, students carried out hands-on activities such as searching for aquatic insects in a stream and identifying tree species, as well as drawing conclusions on the “health” of a forest. At the end of the programme, the students, teachers and parents were surveyed.
The group that participated in the outdoor education rated better in self-esteem, conflict resolution, relationship with peers, problem-solving, motivation to learn and behaviour in class. These children also had improved Science scores, measured by a pre and post test. [I]

Pengurusan Tugas dan Pengurusan Masa oleh Brian Tracy

Walaupun dalam usia beliau yang lanjut, Brian Tracy masih mahu berkongsi ilmu pengetahuan demi manfaat orang ramai yang tidak beliau kenali.

Kemahiran tentang pengurusan tugas dan pengurusan masa yang beliau kongsi dengan tenang dan ikhlas menarik perhatianku.

Semoga ketulusan beliau dirahmati Allah yang Maha Kaya Maha Pemurah.

B for Blessings

The pair of eyes are Blessings.

The Cornea that receives light are Blessings.

The sight or vision are Blessings.

Allah's Blessings are beyond abundance.

I need to appreciate.

I need to sensitize and influence children to appreciate this Blessings in us.

Too close to our brain.

We live with it every single day, hour, minute and seconds even while we were sleeping.

Subhanallah.

Klip video tentang mata

Atas sebab aku ingin mengaitkan pembelajaran tentang deria penglihatan untuk aktiviti penulisan dengan latihan keprihantinan (mindfulness exercise), aku telah menonton beberapa klip video tentang mata.

Setelah menonton klip video untuk kanak-kanak oleh Aum Sum yang sangat mudah untuk difahami tentang mata pada pagi ini, barulah aku faham dan sedar bahawa fungsi kornea ialah menerima cahaya.

Kornea ialah selaput mata.

Itulah bahagia mata yang bermasalah bagi kesihatan Emak pada tahun ini.

Perasaan sebak menyelubungi hati.

Hati terasa pilu.

Dalam aku dibadai gelombang kecemasan (anxiety) dan kegusaran, aku tidak dapat menjawab panggilan Emak demi keselamatan dan ketenangan jiwaku.

Namun, dalam memelihara kesihatan qalbuku, panggilan ibuku.... terpaksa aku hindari.

Emosinya yang sentiasa bergelora boleh menyebabkan jiwaku turut dibadai gelombang.

Hanya Tuhan yang tahu.

18 Disember 2018

Tepat tiga bulan Bapak pergi dan semalam pada sebelah petang, aku telah menziarahi pusara Bapak.

EL telah kutanam di pusara Bapak untuk menemani jasad Bapak di dalam tanah atau mengiringi zikir Bapak di alam kubur.

EL kutanam di bahagian tengah pusara tanda mengingati barah perut yang dideritai Bapak sehingga hembusan nafasnya yang terakhir pada 18 September 2018.

Semoga roh Bapak Mohamed Yusope Bin Sidik sentiasa tenang bersama Allah yang Maha Pengasih, dikelilingi roh para syuhada, para solehin, para mukmin dan para muqarrabin.

Adakah harapanku terlalu tinggi?

Aku yakin Allah yang Maha Pengampun menempatkan Bapak bersama para syuhada.

Emak dan Bapak.
