I have always liked to believe that 'Tough times don't last...tough people do. '
Often I have wondered how tough should one be to be able to live on your own ? Our minds are designed to be associated with others .In other words we are inherently made to be dependent on others and for others to depend on us .
If that is true , then how do people live alone ?
People go through terrible times - deaths , murders , rapes , fatal illness and physical damages of their near and dear ones and yet they continue to live . Where do these people draw their strenght from?strength to live each day all over again...
Rewind to year 1995.A friend passed away. Later I learnt that she was an adopted child.fast forward another 6 months and her father passed away.Her mother continues to face each day inspite of the loss and is still living her life.She is independent and I hope is happy with the way she has confronted her life.Kudos to her.That is courage to me.
Rewind back 7 days from now . One great man that I know of suffers from a stroke.3 days later he is on life support.His wife was asked by the doctors if they could remove the life support and let him die peacefully.They have no children.Wife could not take the decision to kill her only friend,a confidante and a loving husband. Who will take care of his wife? Did anyone up there think of that before deciding to take away what mattered to her the most?
Why is life so unfair to some and so lovely to others?
Some lucky people die without seeing death , pain , misery ? And why some of us have to see it all?
I know this post is 'not practical' so to speak.
But am I the only one who feels others' pain ?
So much pain that I see , so much suffering around me...this life is tough and I get weaker living each day...
Yeah...yeah I know there is a lot to be done and that I should plan,arrange my thoughts in a constructive manner ...should do something to change things around me...I know that. I have done some too and I know that there is lots more to do.
But then who mends a broken , dismantled heart ? It isn't so easy to be so practical at all times.
This life...is not fair.
I wish for destinies to change for a while , for good luck to swap with bad luck and for some happiness in the lives of those who are sad and alone.
My heart goes out to them...it always did . I can't be more practical than this.

You are one of the finest persons on earth and its not a curse that you feel others pain,In my opinion you will never do anything wrong and will always help other people if you have this kind of quality , and indeed your are a great person. For that matter considering this I should also say you are very brave and strong. Be as you are and smile , You will do some beautiful things and give something to this society and people who need your help.
Hey Zaib, I sometimes feel we have learnt to be indifferent, we would give damn if people outside our small cirle are suffering, and we are so used to be 'INDIFFERENT' that we forget it is wrong.
I know life is not fair, Probably life is not fair for anyone, But life goes on....
But you know Kudos to you, you have made a difference atleast in my life.I feel helpless but not indifferent.As I told you before You are one of the most beautiful people I have come across in my life.God Bless You and give you Loads and Loads of happiness.
Hi Zaib...
I had read ur blog today...
Whtever u wrote here on this subject and other subjects really triggered myself to reply. We have a similar mindset... i realize this when u were here with me in malaysia itself.
Whtever happened and going to happen there must be a reason behind it,,, its just tht we dont know the reason or we may come to know it later.
I too had been asking God few timess why life is soo nice and happy for some people and soo suffer for others.... its seems to be unfair... but slowly i realise its just that God wants to test us... whoever we see more happier than us does not meant tht they never suffer before and will be happier life long... They will hv their own way of hiding their suffer and pains.
I had been seeing people who dont care abt others... who dont care abt their own parents and who never turn to a child on the street crying for food... i tried my best to realize them.. but at last its just like hiting ur head to the wall... nothing will happen to the wall it will be like tht only.. it was us who hurted and get the pain back...
lets forget abt people and walk forward building a new beautiful life... the rest will come for itself....
God has created people like us in such a way that we cant do anything opposite to wht our mind and heart says is right. Do wht u want to do... bring urself to a position where u can help the needy and let people learn from u... as long as wht u r doing is right and not oppose to wht had been written in Quran...
Im walking on the same path and glad to meet u...
Zaib... miracle is just another work of result which from ur efforts...
Lets make ur life happier and peacefull....
May Allah guide u and bless u...
