Hidup ini memang macam roda. Ada masa duka dan ada masa ria. Si botak termenung mengenang betapa berpusingnya roda hidup sedari dulu sampailah si botak berada di tempat ini. Semalam si botak masih dalam dakapan mesra Mem Besar dan hari ini si botak mendakap diri sendiri.

Kita semua sangat melucukan. Masing - masing cuba memakai topeng baik untuk menyembunyi kehodohan masing - masing. Sarung jilbab dan sopan santun namun nanah membuak di sebalik semua itu. Semua sebenarnya nak pijak dan bunuh orang lain agar terus hidup dengan senang. Bila terkuis sedikit segala topeng, menampakkan rupa sebenarnya, terus menyarung topeng mangsa agar tidak dipandang salah. Ada juga yang cuba pakai mekap berinci inci dan melalui pelbagai pembedahan agar terkatup semua cela. Perlukah? Kita malu dengan orang, tapi dengan DIA? Tak perlu malu? Perlukah juga kita malu dengan anugerahNya?

Si botak sedang cuba nak buang jauh jauh segala topeng ini. Si botak sedang belajar nak terima kurnia tuhan walau sepekung mana hakikatnya. Si botak nak usaha agar terima segala nasib serta ujian dengan gembira, tanpa babitkan mana mana insan lain. Kita yang pilih segala perbuatan kita kan? Si botak juga tengah cuba untuk menghargai kurnianNya tanpa mengeluh.

Life is indeed like a wheel. There will be joy as well as sadness. Si botak sat and thinking on how the wheel has spinned from the beginning till si botak is here now. Yesterday si botak was still in Mem Besar's hug and today he is hugging himself, all alone.

We are a bunch of funny folks. Everybody tries to put the 'goodie goodie' mask as to cover up each other's flaws. Put on scarfs and manners yet the dirts are erupting behind those masks. Everyone is trying to step upon and kill everybody else in the name of survival. When the mask is removed though a bit, revealing the truth, we will quickly put the victim's mask, so that we will be seen as innocent. Not to mention those whom put God knows how many inches of make up and gone through tonnes of plastic surgeries just to seal all defects. Is it necessary to do so? Do we have got to be embarassed of human, not of HIM? Do we have also to be embarassed of HIS gifts?

Si botak is trying to get rid of all the masks. Si botak is also aiming in embracing GOD's gift though how flawed it is. Si botak is learning still on accepting all HIS trials, without involving others. We choose how to react on everything, right? Si botak is also struggling to value all HIS gift with no complaints.
