Count my blessings..Alhamdulillah...

In my post this time, I will list down things that I should be grateful of my whole 27 years of life.

1. Given a good health. Never in my whole life so far I am warded in a hospital. Very rare that I get even cough and flu, what more dengue, kidney problem, diabetes etc. I have weight issue though..but even though I am a bit 'plus' here and there but I am all healthy. Alhamdulillah! couldn't ask for more.

2. Gifted with a good and smart brain. I have no learning difficulties. Even though I am not the Super Genius, but I managed to place myself in one of the Boarding School which to me is good enough. No ' pancaroba' even during Uni days up to when I took my Masters. Alhamdulillah..

3. This one is something that I really am grateful of. I am even not ready yet to face the fact that 'this' is ripped off me. My HAPPY FAMILY. I'd rather lose money rather than my family. It is the most precious thing that Allah has blessed me with until I don't think it is worth any sum of money. I have a very cool and supportive parents. Joyful siblings. The older we are the closer we get. (I could really see this). A healthy and cute Nephew (Nofal!!)My parents are still healthy. My dad can still work,my mom is still strong. None of us had problems in school. We had no problem in securing ourselves with a job right after we finished our studies.

When we are really blessed with all good things, every single thing come our way, it's either we get the blessing from Allah, or we are tested whether we see HIM in every 'nikmat' that we get. If we do, we pass the test. But what if we don't? If we don't, We seek for HIS forgiveness and guidance to bring us back to the correct path.
The peacefulness of mind and soul that we get from his 'Rahmah' and 'Barakah' that we should pray for it to stay in us until the end of time. AMIN!!

Subhaanallah

It's weird when new converts realised more the beauty of Islam rather than us. These people treasure every moment and experience they gain in their quest towards Islam, whereas we the born-muslim felt that we've had enough of that. When they manage to get the meaning in every teaching of Islam, we merely feel that its a belief and a 'must-do' that we have been taught ever since we were small. Are we or are they more grateful?? to be given the chance each by Allah in our life?
