the light is shimmering through my skin..
In the name of Allah,The Most Merciful :)
Its been a month. I was lackadaisical and exhausted.
These past few weeks were pretty chaotic and hectic for me.Working long hours in the lab is apparently not appealing at all.And it had me complaining all the time.Getting so stressed,I vented my anger to my siblings for petty reasons.Astaghfirullah.
This had got me to ponder upon things I probably had taken for granted.My long whining about my tight schedule started to bore my sisters.I never realized I have lessons to acquire though.All I did was merely complaining.
And one morning, there was me sitting on my praying mat, reading a book by Pahrol Mohd Juoi - Nota Hati Seorang Lelaki. Some lines in the book made my heart quivered.Subhanallah.It came to my realization that I have no right to complain at all. Despite my heavy workload, my body was still intact, nothing was hurt, I was still able to consume good food, slept, and breathed. The obstacles and problems Allah had put along my way were nothing compared to all things He had bestowed upon me.Human tends to emphasize on the negativity neglecting all good things they have around them.It is like one small test we faced surpassed all the blessings and pleasure we enjoyed.
Sometimes in life, we have to sacrifice certain things we wanted.
With that being said, here I am giving up my awaited trip to Yakult and Beryls today for some reasons. I never expected this thing to occur yet I believe Allah has better plans for me, InsyaAllah.I had been working uber hard all this while and I felt like my efforts were in vain. Astaghfirullah.
A fragile and vulnerable servant I am, devils have started their war with me.Struggling between my inner talk and evil whispers that echo in my head and dominate my heart, I am asking for strength.
Ironically, my presentation was about stress management, I had been inevitably attacked by this everyday occurrence.Nonetheless, Allah has never left me alone.Yesterday, when I was browsing on SOLUSI collection we owned, I randomly picked an issue and flipped a random page.Subhanallah, there you go! 'Stress Management in Islam', I cant help but to weep in joy.
And yet this morning, Allah wanted to show that He knows me better than anyone else, I was about to send my brother to his school, soon I started my car, meaningful lyric soothed my ears
'Everytime you feel like you cannot go on,You feel so lost and that you are so alone,
All you see is night and darkness all around, You feel so hopeless, You cant see which way to go,
Dont despair and never lose hope, Cause ALLAH is always by your side'
- Maher Zain, InsyaAllah
Subhanallah, I believe these are not merely coincidence, Allah had these planned for me. He is teaching me something :)
'I am wandering in darkness,I do not find light.
I am walking on a path full of thorns and dirt, I do not see flowers.
I am climbing a mountain so high, I do not reach the peak
I am swimming in a deep blue see, I do not find shore'
Now I feel like writing my mediocre poem.
Hope everyone is fine.Assalamualaikum
