All negatives... and I'm not talking about photography.

Bismillah

The days have rolled on-wards with me being constantly fed with negative energy. Perhaps this is my Lord's test to see how long my positive attitude will last. I'm happy to say that at least for this moment nothing can waver my faith in His promise. I'm sure there are many others out there less fortunate then I. So what have I got to complain about?

Sure business isn't booming. Sure the pays not much. Sure it's hard getting a job. Sure exams are tough.

But you know what? We are alive. We are blessed with a wonderful family. We have all our limbs working perfectly fine. We are of sound mind. We have people who care for us. We have a home. We have land. We have food. We have shelter and warmth.

We don't have wars. We don't have disease. We are not disabled. We don't have natural disasters. We don't have to suffer the cold winter solstice. We are not dead.

There are perhaps many other things we want. Everyone wants security but then life isn't always a secure safe place. Things happen and the world changes. It's a matter of will you change with the world or will you sit, complain and mope about how things used to be.

I'm moving on and I'll take the people I love with me. Even if I have to nag them into practical optimism.

Alhamdulillah
