Kissed that ass!
Hohoho!
I started my Monday mornin with a Bang, literally tis mornin! All was fine when i drove to work until the lil Benoi Road stretch when I had to stop for traffic behind a Mercedes cab. I wasn't speedin n I had my foot on that brake pedal for awhile yet...BANG! My colleague, who was my makin her first day return to work after maternity leave was in a blur. I was kinda shocked...like how the hell did i bang the cab?? Oh my heart felt like droppin for a moment. But I had to face it...my first accident.
The cabby & I came out n inspected our vehicles. NO DENTS! PHEWWWWW ALHAMDULILLAH~~
But there were scratches n the paint on our car plate was crumpled. Urghh! Taxi driver looked at me..looked at my car...asked if we can settle it right there. But I only got $50. So he took my no. and said we'll settle it after he dropped off his passenger.
I called Cuzzin Liz and asked how much would a paintjob cost on a bumper. I thought of offerin the cab driver $200 but she said "NO DON't Kak Supi. $100 should be more than enuff." Ok so i borrowed my colleague's money & managed to get it settled with that $100 & the cab driver said he didn't charge me for his cab rental etc. and simply told me to recommend ppl for his service should anyone need to use Mercedes Limo service! He smiled & went off & my colleague who was with me said he looked pretty happy.
Told another colleague abt the accident & he said that the scratches can perhaps be covered with wax. I told him, i noe no shit abt waxin man...so he tried usin his wax on my car...and sure enuff, the scratch was GONE!! Then i recalled that the cab's bumper scratches looked less serious than mine!! Wahhhh no wonder uncle was smilin away when I gave him the money!
Lesson learnt at a price.
Btw, to my Lesbo Raf...surely tis will be one of the most memorable birthday of urs tt i will remember...LoL! Enjoy the last of ur 20s! Yeah u have 6 months extra as compared to myself

Ibrahim ibn Adham - may Allah have mercy on him - a third century scholar, a teacher and a companion of Sufyan ath-Thawri, was asked about the saying of Allah - the Most High: "and your Lord says: "Call on me I will answer your prayer..." [40:60]
"We supplicate and we are not answered."
So he said to them:
You know Allah, Yet you do not obey Him,
You recite the Qur'an, Yet do not act according to it,
You know Shaitan, Yet you have agreed with him,
You proclaim that you love Muhammad Yet you abandon his Sunnah,
You proclaim your love for Paradise, Yet you do not act to gain it,
You proclaim your fear the Fire, Yet you do not prevent yourselves from sins,
You say "Indeed death is true", Yet you have not prepared for it,
You point out the faults with others, Yet you do not look at your faults,
You eat of that which Allah has provided for you, Yet you do not thank Him,
You bury your dead, Yet you do not take a lesson from it."
