It's the first of December, and now it's the 3rd day of Muharram (I kinda like to keep track of Islamic calender which I don't really care before, but now I wish to keep track all of it). Meanwhile my dad had celebrated his birthday on the 28th of November, and it was like usual. I love my parents, and I realize as the time goes by the relationship between us somehow part. I felt like I was responsible to bring the family closer together, as I am the eldest of four daughters in the family. Insyaallah, I will try my best to bring us closer together..
But then, life had it's own ups and downs. I remembered that I was once depressed and kept blaming the past for what had happened to me. It wasn't a good thing, blaming everything that happened in the past. At that time, I felt like I was lost. I was angry at everything, I lost my rationality to my family and hurt them.
I believe, no matter how far you've gone wrong in life, there will always be a way back regardless how bad or evil you are. I believe, we were given signs but it depends on us whether to realize or ignore it. It is everywhere, even in social network :p hehe.
So, I think I want to share a post that I've read somewhere....
My dear ALLAH when I loose hope, help me to remember that, YOUR love is greater than my disappointments & YOUR plans for my life are better than my dreams.
It maybe is simple, yet it can calm me when I'm involve in my own troubles. I don't know about others, but these types of words really brings me back to the ground. Awaken me back to reality, back to my responsibility in this world. Words alone cannot describe how I felt, and it will never be enough. I just hope and pray I can get more, these small and tiny bits of awareness so I'll be able to remind myself continuously.
Regards, Jamilah :]
