Ranting: the inevitable facts of life

Its inevitable...things change; Sometimes for the better and sometimes for the--uh-- not so better. And, since this is reality and not a Jane Austin novel, we don't know how a situation will turn out until after its all said and done. No easy button here!
This week, I learned that sometimes it is much easier to be hurt and deal with the pain than to speak your mind. I learned that you can't please everyone, not by a long shot. That sometimes, even the people you thought knew you the most don't know you at all.
But then again, you don't actually learn this, you remember that you tucked the knowledge somewhere in the dusty file cabinet that is your mind. And one day when you least expect it that truth comes out from the part of your brain you choose to ignore 364 days a year.
At some point, you realize that what you want may not be what anyone else wants for you. When does it become their right to intervene? Maybe right away? when you've gone mad? Or maybe from start to end, whether you think you need it or not. So who? Who decides what YOU need?

Heres the cool part, the part that always bring my smile back in full force... No one decides what you need but ALLAH and everyone else is merely a means.So when those tough facts of life hit you full force, depend only on HIM and you will not go wrong. In fact, you will end up exactly where you are supposed to be.

Phew! That was wayyy to serious for me. Now that that's over, been under the weather for a few days and am pulling through Alhamdullilah. Having a cold is NOT fun when finals are two weeks away. But the down time is always nice when life gets too hectic.
Double edged sword...sickness and relaxation? Ya basically!
