Contemplating my budgets, I actually have plans to buy a sofa, a computer and change my toilet door. Problem is the budget is not enough for all, so have to decide which item is more urgent …. *sigh*
If I consider carefully, I think its the toilet door and the sofa and computer can wait and talking about budget, I think I’m also a bit reluctant to just spend my money unwisely considering the fact that price of petrol just keep on getting higher and higher. Inflation are in almost all items regardless whether its food items, medical or others. Any spare dollars I better keep it for rainy days that I’m sure will be coming if inflation keep on happening.
This year Hari Raya definitely will be a modest one. Have to be careful not to splurge on unnecessary things. The Hari Raya goodies have to be keep to the minimum. Even the number of new clothes for my kids I have already reduced.
The funny think about planning budget is that everytime I think I am in control for sure there will be an item or two at home that will breakdown or need to be replace. If its not that then its the kids coming down with some sickness and need medical attention and these will blow my budget away. Ahhh the trials of life …. so when will ever be a time when money is enough?? I think can wait long long arrrr….. hehehe

“so when will ever be a time when money is enough?? ”
Human will never be satisfied with the amount they have. Even millionaires still want more money, rite? Rezki comes from Allah. It’s ok if it’s little, but we need the barakah.
I think you already know what your WANT and what you NEED. InsyaAllah, Allah will provide you with more rezki, halal & thoiyiban….Amin…
C u tomorrow, InsyaAllah!!

As-salaamu’alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dearest sister,
I do agree with everything mrsbeki mentioned. However things have become difficult for a lot of families these days, including just being able to get the necessities.. but if this is our trial, alhumduliLlah.
it really could be harder.
If there is any way I can help, please let me know
May Allah shower His blessings upon you and your family, and grant you success in this world and in the next. Ameen.
Wa’alaykum as-salaam
Love Farhana
