Assalamualaikum....
Happy New Year !
I believe no matter how strong the person is, there was a time when that person will lose hope. I did, in fact I always did. When I thought that I lose hope, there always something inside my heart budding and keep growing. I suppressed it, I ignored it but it just never go and when I let it be, it is growing as wide as a sky.. And it's hope. I don't know where it come from but I believe it's a gift from Allah..
You know, there is a blind girl who asked her mother what is the color of the sky and her mother told her, it's blue. Then the girl asked again, why is it blue? Her mother answered because blue is the color of hope. What is hope? She asked again and her mother said 'Hope is a feeling that you can't see but you can feel, something you can feel about what you want to be and to do'.
And I was thinking, she's right. I want to be a doctor, it's a hope. I want my parents to be happy, it's a hope. Why sometimes we loss it? I think maybe because we give up. Give up upon hope, give up to try again and most importantly give up to depend on Allah. May I not be that one kind.
When I was a child, I asked my mother why we must solat. My mother said because we must thanks Allah for everything He give, by worship to Him. What if I don't want to? Then my mother said you can't take whatever gifts that He give to you. And I asked again, How?, my mother said don't breath the air, I tried, 1 sec, 4 sec, 10 sec then 20 sec, the moment of 30 sec I inhaled hard, I must breath. I said again, next. My mother said don't live on the earth and other planets or anything similar. Where am I going? I asked. My mother said a place you created on your own, your soil, your tree, your air and everything. There's no place such that. At first I am scared but then, I knew that I depend on Allah on everything.
I believe the one who depend on Allah, they never lose hope. So, let's hope ! ^^
P/S= I hope I will not be lazy this block. Heheheheh
