Lessons In Life

When you have in abundance, you don’t think twice about giving. More often giving to those who are not in need They play on your emotions, make you feel guilty for what you were granted. You and them forget it is your chosen right to receive from the Greatest One. Then one day you find yourself at the other end. Suddenly your friends have more and you lost everything. You ponder your mistakes in letting them bleed you dry. Alone, no family, no friends, They are afraid that you will ask for monetary assistance Forgetting your good nature and believing that it was their right to receive from you. As it is now their right not to share with you. Alone, your home about to be repossessed, your car has already been taken. Your supposedly close relatives walk through your home to seek what they can take. Arrogant and disrespectful, no concern for your well being, No compassion, no concern for where you will live. Who can you turn to when you are alone? No shoulder to lean on You turn to Almighty, the One truth in your life. He answers your prayers and you are saved from destitution. A lesson learned. A true and sincere friend is not the one who shunts you when you're on your knees. When the mayet(deceased) is carried out, a path none can escape. There is no difference between. Same as Hajj(pilgrimage), kings and ordinary citizens are the same. Invited to the house if Almighty. Active hajj starts before and continues after your physical hajj Again you ponder your lessons. Your rise and fall, your strength in faith, is your ultimate elevation.
