Yesterday was my other half's birthday. I just bought a chocolate cake (she loves chocs) plus some food for dinner. We simply use birthdays (or other events) as a reason to celebrate and be happy. Circumstances can be better but we are contented with what Allah has given us. We will say 'Alhamdulillah' (God willing) if things are good or bad.
So time is slipping away for us. Being old, if we are not careful, will appear to others as being useless. I keep reading (or watching YouTube videos) to keep my mind active. I don't go out too much and the kind of work I do most of the time at home forces me to be less (physically) mobile. I should be more mobile to help me with my bad back. Today, for instance, had the intention to an event of my in-laws, but unfortunately my indigestion and back problems suggest that I should not go. So I spent my time watching videos of the experience of activists going to Ghazza and elsewhere. I shared one of these on FB of Australian doctors whom at the end, made a remark that they are unsure if they will be alive the next day. May Allah help them all. Our prayers are the least that we could offer.
So you can probably see I spend less time on scientific matters, sadly, mainly attending to many personal issues and depressing state of affairs of the world in general. I hope to return to working on science soon.
Just to entertain myself and my other half last night, I did this AI video so that we could be 'younger'.
The AI tool that I was using is PixVerse. The first video I made was our three-legged cat Hitam.
Again, this is mere entertainment but I hope I can use AI in a more beneficial way. May Allah guide us in these challenging times.
