gahh..

Salam alaik,

I have a question, why is it so hard to place your past behind and move on with life, happily? Be it the failure we're experiencing, gone loved ones, changes in life. It's like, sometime this thing will "menghantui" our mind, every fresh morning, anytime of the day. Like.. now!

Before I answer, here's another question. How far have we thank God and be grateful (bersyukur) for all His blessings, how far have we realized His nikmah given to us everyday of our life. The ability to breathe, smell, touch, love, walk, taste, foods, family, friends, be alive itself. Have we bersyukur and be grateful enough? If yes, how? How did we show our gratefulness to Him? and to what extend can we say that it is enough?

If no, then don't you think we deserve to be experiencing this down side of life? Sadness, griefness, loneliness, uneasiness?

To me, in life, we're tested by God, everyday, every second. Yes, it's true, sometime our weak mind and soul just couldn't accept this tests with patience and sincerity. That's when we start to ask the whys. Why am I being tested like this, why do I have to face it. Blaming everyone else but us.

But these tests, are part of the nikmah and blessings from Him. I'm sure we have heard this alot, and it is true. By surviving this tests, with patience and sincerity, we become stronger, wiser. And the harder the test, the better. What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger, right?

Inna ma'al-'usri yusra (94:5) - with every hardship comes ease!

And the best part is, for a mukmin, a true believer, everytime we're sad, Allah will balance it with something cheerful for us. As for me, I have my dinde, thank you. (and I love you) I still have my mom and grandmom with me under one rooftop, alhamdulillah. I have a home, I can eat, I can feel, I have friends, I was born a muslim. Alhamdulillah.

Remember, no matter how bad the test is, it's for your own good. Face it with patience, sincerity, I can assure you, the REWARD is BIG!

But still, I have this theory, if we are not grateful enough, we deserve to be sad. Hmm?
