its a hard knock life, for us.

Ahh..I really havent been having the best day. Life can be pretty harsh sometimes, I mean I know that everything happens for a reason, but at times, things can just get so hard and it all becomes too much to deal with. And I'm not even talking about myself right now. It's funny, cause sometimes you really think you've got it tough and wish you could switch places with another person for a day, just to get away from it all; truth is though no matter how bad you have it, no matter what kind of day your having and how much you just want to escape it all, there will always be someone who has it ten times worse and wants to escape it that much more than you. It's crazy how much we take for granted, I swear, I regret ever thinking for a single second; 'why did it have to happen to me' and 'if only', or 'I wish*'. How selfish is it to think like that, how ignorant and ungrateful..at least I'm healthy, at least I have a family who loves me, at least I have food and clothes on my back and don't have to live in fear everyday; which unfortunately is more than I can say for a lot :(. Alhamdullilah for everything, I should be so grateful, we all should. Godd..sometimes I listen to how bad some people have it and I feel for them, I do, but I know I will never truly understand or be able to empathise with them because the truth is I don't know what they're going through because I havent gone through it. I wish words could heal, but sadly they can't. It's stupid, we can be so childish sometimes, so stubborn, so narrow minded, we let the smallest things bother us, we get into stupid arguments and say stupid things in anger, without thinking..and for what, honestly..?

Life's too short for all of that.

Ya Rab, please help all those who need it, guide us on the straight path and protect us, strengthen us in our Imaan; Help us come to terms with the bad that life throws at us and make things easy for us to understand and accept. Ameen.
