When things happen unexpectedly..


When things happens unexpectedly, it's just like the unexpected guest knocking on your door..
 They never fail to catch us of guard and we soon find ourselves in a turmoil of feelings.. some managed to put it aside and view it from different perspectives… some.. unfortunately, found themselves helplessly drown in one hundred and one whirlpool of emotions… 
As for me.. it depends- if the situation pulls me into a deep deep grievances.. .. I guess giving myself a good, good, very good cry would help me to ease .. it may take days of on and of crying… asking questions foolishly of the 'WHYs, HOWs, WHATs..'- Why me.. How can this thing happened... What did i do to deserve this...
The list of questions will go on and on.. until the reality sank it- IT's THERE- I have to face it.


Just like having a bad fall at the first time.. the hurt was so painful that you can’t help yourself but to cry, wouldn’t even dare to look at the wound – what more to think of a way to nurse the wound appropriately. Having someone close to you yet not involved in the situation would definitely a bliss.. as they are the ones who would nurse the wound as to what they think would help at that particular period of time… Still, nothing would really help but you- yourself..


Things are meant to be when they are meant to be.. That’s what makes life meaningful to live.. Our life is still a bed of roses.. STILL.. We have to remember.. roses come with thorns.. Before we can even see the rose buds.. we have to bare the view of a thorny plant.. If left untreated, the rose plant would only be a thorny plant.. couldn’t even bear a single bud for us to feast our eyes upon.. 


Just like planting a rose plant, patience is fully required.. Not only that, we seek advise from those who planted roses… those who are seen as expert or experienced.. But then.. the real deal is in our EFFORT and our PERSEVERANCE. Though at times we may prick our finger while tending the plants.. it is because of faith, we keep on putting on the stuffs. The more we tend the plant.. the more we notice small things, tiny development of the plant.. Good neighbours and friends may give us good materials- anything that would help us to have a beautiful rose plant.. but then, if we do not get up and start doing things ourselves… the fertilizers would go wasted.. the roses would be only in our dreams..


Patience, perseverance.. and faith..
At the end of the day.. having faith to your believes.. the ONE .. would always provide you a blanket of comfort.. It is your faith in God that would keep you going on.. though at time you feel that your effort is wasted, enough of patience and perseverance bared… Your faith in God.. would help you to stand and face the music.. things happen for a reason.. It is just unexplainable at that period of time.

As time would heal.. Patience, perseverance .. and faith would finally let you feast the first moment your plant bears the rose. You will soon see that things that happen unexpectedly.. happen because God knows what is best for you.. making your life meaningful as it was meant to be.



" On no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) 'Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You  are our Protector; help us against those who stand against Faith'" (Al-Baqarah- 286)
