Over a cup of green
tea
A few minutes ago, while I was working on my projects, I
fixed myself a cup of green tea with diving mint leaves that left a very
refreshing taste when removed. While drinking, I saw my blog’s bookmark on the
bookmark’s bar and it hit me “I haven’t written since months thus I need to
write!”
I still don’t know what I’ll write about but I think it will be something about what you leave behind you for
I got inspired when I wrote “left a very refreshing taste when removed” in the
above paragraph.
Lately, I've not only been through a writer’s block but
through a writer’s comma! Yes, a comma! At first, I wasn't inspired but then
I had many inspirations and less time and in some cases many inspirations and lazy
time.
Since the last time I wrote, life as I knew it have changed,
I have changed therefore everything about me have changed even the way I express
my feeling in words have changed.
The refreshing taste of mint in my cup of green tea, refreshed
my memory which gave me no choice but to stop working and just think. This time
I’m not thinking about letting go or getting over things but about giving into my
life and living up to the expectations of all who gave me a position and
believed in me.
In life, we were given many positions. For instance, Allah
Subhana wa ta'ala gave us the position of his glory’s worshipers. We were
gifted with a soul and according to how good we are in taking care of it by
doing what we were asked to do and avoiding what we were banned from, an
eternal habitat will be granted to us either in heaven or in hell. Our parents
gave us the position of their trusted child. Our relatives gave us the position
of a modem that keeps our blood connection going. Our instructors in school or
our heads in work gave us the position of the responsible student or employee. And
last but not least our beloved ones and dear friends, they gave us the position
of a lover, the feeling of being loved and cared about, the responsibility to keep
a soul connection with someone not like anyone alive, with selected people whom
you can trust and relay on and gave us a shoulder to cry on.
Now of all times, of the 20 years I have lived, I realize that
everything starts within your brain, your heart and your soul. Once you decide
to take a decision, do it sincerely from your heart and perform it with all the
strength of your soul you can succeed and do a good deed. Inner peace is what keeps
us strongly going, it is what keeps us sane. When you believe that everything
written for us happens for a reason, when you are thankful for every reason,
when you believe in the existence of the reason even if it wasn't known {لاَ تَسْأَلُواْ عَنْ أَشْيَاء إِن تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ} and
when you love Allah as much as he loves you then only who will feel your inner
peace.
No pain no gain! Heartbreaks, headaches, all the aches and
all the pain, suffering, swollen eyes that ran out of tears, being forced to
face your fears and having no one that
can bring back your cheers. These are our wake up calls they are the siren’s
call (the enticing appeal of something alluring but
potentially dangerous)! No matter how we fear them happening they
are appealing when compared to what we fear after death, so we either look at
the bright side believe that they are beautiful, listen to the danger they
might be hiding and avoid it in the lower life before we regret it in the
afterlife or give in and lose eternally. Its either we be thankful or object
Allah’s well.
{إِنَّا هَدَيْنَاهُ السَّبِيلَ إِمَّا شَاكِراً وَإِمَّا كَفُوراً}
Yes life as I knew it have changed, I have changed and soon
insha’Allah I’ll be the change I want to see in the world. Wonders of life are endless you just have to
see things without your eyes, look at the full half, think of what you leave
behind you when you will be removed just like how the mint refreshed my memory
after removed. It is amazing how my whole life’s work, experiences and
knowledge just passed by over a cup of green tea.
With all the love I carry in my heart, I wish you all a happy
life. May I be the mint to your lives when I get removed. <3
