No Rainbow without Rain

I wish I could make you believe that all of the pain and suffering that you're going through is just temporary. For how long? Only God knows. But what I know and what I can tell you is that He is fair. Always. That's why you should never, never give up. You're already going to get what you want and what you deserve, or what Allah thinks is best for you. Allah already planned for you to get the happiness that you want. Only to see whether you truly deserve it, He has to test you first. Tests to test your patience, test your faith in Him, and you will know if you have passed His tests when you finally have what you want and can take a deep breath and feel calm. It's worth not giving up for, isn't it? Because if you give up, what will you get? Not much =)

I understand that in the world we live in today, it's extremely hard to keep ourselves together. I understand 'being strong' and 'not giving up' is easier than done. It is, I admit. I can just say it a million times to myself, and still I'd have a hard to fully believe it. But that's just the thing, isn't it? Not EVERYONE is strong. But you're not 'everyone', are you? You're you. And YOU are strong. Allah would never give you a challenge that He knows you can't cope with. That mean He KNOWS you can do it. Trust Allah, have faith in Him and believe that you can, because He does.

 With just a little push, you'll be closer to what you're aiming for. What if you keep taking a step after another? Without realizing it, you'll already be where you wanna be. And you'll realize how everything you went through, all of those challenges Allah threw at you, that they were all worth it.

Maybe sometimes, you wonder why Allah give you certain things? Things that you really, really want? No matter how much you pray for it, you still don't get it? I really hope that you always remember that Allah knows everything. Like literally EVERYTHING. He knows what happened in the past, what's happening now, what's going to happen in the future and everything else that's infinity miles BEYOND our imagination. Meaning? He knows what you want, yes. But he so knows what you NEED and what is the BEST for you. Keep an opened mind that not everything that you want is the best thing for you. That maybe if you don't get it, Allah has better plans for you. Meaning you'll get something even BETTER than what you wanted. Who wants less stuff, rite? lol.

But of course it's not wrong to pray to Him for what you want. In fact, that's exactly what you should do if you want something. ASK it from him. Don't be so arrogant to ask Allah for what you want, because He is the only one who can give it to you. Of course you yourself also have to work very , very hard.

And soon a smile will start growing and will only get bigger until you just can't stand having such a big and beautiful smile anymore. There IS sunshine behind that rain. There are good times behind the pain. How do you make a change? Keep trying to get to the end of the rainbow, to the pot of gold. And when you reach the end, you will realize how it was all worth it. How Allah really does love you.
