Losing, or is it?

A memory from high school...

Losing isn't actually is losing.

So verily, with the hardship, there is relief...

In His holy verses of the Quran, Allah reminds every single one of us that behind every cloud there is, and be sure that there IS, a silver lining.

For example,

me. losing most of my things. really taught me a lesson. That not everything that we think that was bad, heavy, hard and sad is actually what it is. And I'm not saying that "everything would be better in the end". What I'm saying to you is that it is actually a blessing in disguise. I lost my things. That showed me how my parents truly loves me.

Another example is that when you think that you're losing a friend. I have a few friends that are actually good at heart. However, guilt is killing them from the inside. They think that they are the ones who made mistakes and they are the cause of a dying friendship. But, in truth they are not. Their growing guilt makes them feel that they have to part, but in fact there's no need.

For only through hardship, you and your relationships will be tested. This is a test from Allah. A mere test from your Lord. First, you have to realize that it is a TEST. A test that you are not bound to fail. With patience, faith and god-consciousness, you can never fail. Even though that it seems that you are failing, it is actually another test itself.

You will fail when you decide you are. You have lost everything when you say you have. You will lose a friend when you act like it is. It's up to you.

I chose my path and made my decision. I haven't lost anything.

My things - I will replace them with something more high-tech anyway.

My health - it's recovering

My friend - someone that can never be replaced and I'm not planning on losing that someone anytime soon.

Just know that in the end, everything's gonna be alright. If it's not alright, then it's not the end. Trust me on this one.
