At times when we are at our lowest, we need something to lift us our spirits up. I find that quotes, short stories and poems helps me lots through these process. To remind me that to count every small blessings :)In rainy days you might want a little sunshine to light your heart. In sunny days you might want a shade and cool breeze.. Just like little kind words and some motivation to get through rough days.. Something to keep you going.

Will Power Stories: Don't give up, just keep driving
One day a young lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm and the young lady asked her father, "What should I do?"
Father said, "Keep driving." Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse.
"What should I do?" The young lady asked?
"Keep driving," her father replied.
On up a few feet, she noticed that eighteen wheelers were also pulling over. She told her father, "I must pull over, I can barely see ahead. It is terrible and everyone is pulling over!"
Her father told her, "Don't give up, just keep driving!"
Now the storm was terrible, but she never stopped driving and soon she could see a little more clearly. After a couple of miles she was again on dry land and the sun came out.
Her father said, "Now you can pull over and get out."
Young Lady said, "But why now?"
Father said, "When you get out, look back at all the people that gave up and are still in the storm, because you never gave up your storm is now over."
This is a testimony for anyone who is going through "hard times." Just because everyone else, even the strongest, gives up. You don't have to ... if you keep going, soon your storm will be over and the Sun will shine upon your face again.
Imam Ali (as): "The endure does not miss success although it may take a long time."
The dua of a Muslim for his absent brother or sister Muslim stemming from the heart.
The prophet (SAW) said: 'There is no believing servant who supplicates for his brother in his absence where the angels do not say, 'the same be for you'' [Muslim]
Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "No fatigue, nor disease, nor sorrow, nor sadness, nor hurt, nor distress befalls a Muslim, even if it were the prick he receives from a thorn, but that Allah expiates some of his sins for that." (Book #70, Hadith #545) Sahih Bukhari .
If you disclose your Sadaqat (alms-giving), it is well; but if you conceal them and give them to the poor, that is better for you. (Allah) will expiate you some of your SINS. And Allah is Well-Acquainted with what you do.
( سورة البقرة , Al-Baqara, Chapter #2, Verse #271)
