You won’t know why you’re here, if you don’t know the One who brought you here.

You won’t know why you’re blessed with something, if you don’t know what it means to be a blessing yourself.

You won’t know why you’re in pain, if you don’t believe in the virtue of patience.

You won’t know this life, if you don’t believe in the afterlife.

You won’t know who you are, if you don’t know who you want to become.

You won’t know where you are going, if you don’t know where you came from.

We live in a world full of suffering which is meant to wake us from our slumber. But if we constantly dwell on what we feel has missed us, we may be missing out on a far greater sense of purpose and self-worth. A life with less confusion and more certainty. A life of meaning where we learn to live in harmony with divine decree, so that we could get to know our Lord who created us and our stories.
