Ramadhan Mubarak dear all.. 

Please forgive me if i have hurt you in anyway..

May you have a blessed Ramadhan :)

I'm not like a candle who burns for other's..
be it for loved ones or a stranger..
such like what some perceived me to be.. 

We all crossed path fated by Allah..
There is always a reason to it..
Some instantly connected as such our souls
were once connected before..

It's just that i believed..
Life is precious and when you have lost many loved ones you realize each day is a gift.. 
Especially when at times those loved ones were your rock 
and had your back in good and bad times..
The yearning for them mounting especially at times like this..

All around trudging in this dunia..
what i only see are the ones
who chose to take things for granted..
Either loved ones or just even simply small blessings..
Or either they prefer to live in the past and won't let go..
However i have tried to reach but the feelings are not reciprocated
The hardened heart..

How can someone thrive if there is no support and encouragement?
as they cannot understand what i meant as they have not
lead the life of always grappling alone..
It can be crippling when u tied down with assortment of
things and health..
If only they know and understand..

"I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship."--Brene Brown

A famous writer was in his study room. He picked up his pen and started writing:
**Last year, I had a surgery and my gall bladder was removed. I had to stay stuck to the bed due to this surgery for a long time. 

**The same year I reached the age of 60 years and had to give up my favourite job. I had spent 30 years of my life in this publishing company.

 
**The same year I experienced the sorrow of the death of my father.

**And in the same year my son failed in his medical exam because he had a car accident. He had to stay in bed at hospital with the cast on for several days. The destruction of car was another loss.
At the end he wrote: Alas! It was such bad year!!
When the writer's wife entered the room, she found he husband looking sad lost in his thoughts. From behind his back she read what was written on the paper. She left the room silently and came back with another paper and placed it on side of her husband's writing.
When the writer saw this paper, he found this written on it:

**Last year I finally got rid of my gall bladder due to which I had spent years in pain.

**I turned 60 with sound health and got retired from my job. Now I can utilize my time to write something better with more focus and peace.

**The same year my father, at the age of 95, without depending on anyone or without any critical condition met his Creator.

**The same year, Allah blessed my son with a new life. My car was destroyed but my son stayed alive without getting any disability.

At the end she wrote:
This year was an immense blessing of Allah and it passed well!!
See!!

The same incidents but different viewpoints. If we ponder with this viewpoint that what could have happened more, we would truly become thankful to Allah subhanawata'aala.
Allah says in Quran:

"And indeed, your Lord is full of bounty for the people but most of them do not show the gratitude"
(Anamal, 73)
