I miss that lil’ boy on the left side of the picture. He was innocent. He was nice. He was what he was. Tho’ he’s not here anymore. He’s always in my heart. In Hafreez. He was the reason why I started ‘thesestoriesaboutlife.blogspot.com‘ . To change everything that I can. The mentality, especially. You won’t forever be what you were born as. Believe in yourself and have faith. This lil’ boy is the reason why I keep my feet on the ground, always – Hafreez Adam.

The Beauty in Ugly

Hey. How are you guys doin’? Today I’m gonna share something about myself. Something that most of you people don’t know about. Something that might never cross your mind.

Yeap. That was me in those pictures. Back then. I was this lil nerdy kid. A kid with a cap, a big shirt and a real big jeans, always. Someone who is socially awkward. Yeap. I was.

And to top that off, I had a problem with my skin. I’ve had a real bad skin. Covered with pimples on, almost the whole face. It was really bad. And I locked myself in the house almost every precious second. I barely go out and hang out with friends or whatsoever. I do things alone. I was just really uncomfortable in my own skin. How I hoped it would end, on that very second.

It was horrible. People were staring. People were talking. Even my own father almost had his fist on my face for having a bad skin condition. As if I asked for it?

My friend once said to me, “My ass is even nicer than your face.” Yeap. Right on my face.

Sakit bhai. Gila terasa hina bila orang samakan muka aku dengan punggung dia.

But that was back then. 5 years has passed. Aku bukan lagi mangsa cacian. Bukan lah mengatakan diri ini cukup kacak, HOT atau pun sempurna. Jauh, terlalu jauh dari semua itu. Tapi aku sedar, aku bukan ditempat dulu.

I’ve changed. Physically, mentally and emotionally.

But what happened to me years back had got me thinking. Berfikir secara matang. Untuk lebih menghargai kita sesama manusia tanpa menilai rupa seseorang individu itu.

Dan hidup bukan lah satu kisah dongeng. Tapi, tiada apa yang mustahil. Dulu, aku sering diperli dan dikutuk oleh rakan-rakan. Iya lah. Siapalah aku? Sekadar budak “nerd” yang penuh jerawat di muka. Bila aku ambil gambar pun di tertawa kan. Aku menyimpan angan-angan untuk menjadi “photographer” bebas dahulu. Kerana sedar, wajah aku tidak layak untuk berada di hadapan kamera.

Tetapi, Alhamdulillah. Kini, they want this face to be in front of the camera. Kuasa Allah.

“Believe in your dreams. Believe in yourself. Believe, that one day, what you believe is to be believed.”

Jadi, jangan dipinggir orang yang terasing. Mereka mampu berubah bukan sahaja untuk diri sendiri, malahan, segelintir dari orang-orang sebegini, merekalah yang merubah dunia.

Ada ke iPhone, Facebook, etc kalau tak ada nerd? Cantik/kacak sahaja, tetapi “kosong” taak kemana juga. Be the “Beauty with Briefcase.” Ilmu penuh didada kebijaksanaan terserlah.

Kami mungkin tidak seindah rupa, tetapi, untuk seseorang yang bukan sahaja indah rupa, tetapi juga, dalaman. Mereka tidak menyisih. They’ll find “the beauty in ugly”. Now, that’s what true beauty is.

Berikut pula jawapan Hafreez Adam apabila ditanya bagaimanakah beliau berjaya mengubah penampilan dan keyakinan diri beliau.
