Grateful And Happy

Sometimes, things that seem ordinary to us are extraordinary to others. We complain all too often about being tired or overwhelmed, yet there are those who—despite being unable to see—are still able to read and memorize the Quran. I once asked my teacher about this, and I learned that what we perceive as a blessing or a gift—if it leads us away from Allah and causes us to constantly complain—is not truly a blessing at all. Conversely, trials or circumstances that we might view as detrimental—if they draw us closer to Allah—are, in fact, a gift from Him. We often fail to realize this; now, each morning, I make an effort to be grateful for the little things, such as having a healthy body.

Greetings always compact.
