learn to appreciate what we have

The key to success-count your blessings for the day every night before you doze off...no sigh, no regret for what you have done-of course at the same time we have to repent for the sins that we have done and determine not to repeat them again-just the thought of wanting to be better by day and wanting to do the best you can. This way, you will have no complaints and be thankful for what Allah has given you...of course, these suggestions sound so ideal and even I myself actually couldn't really believe my eyes that I've written what I've written. But, this life is the only chance that we have-after all I believe that all of us know we only have one life to cherish-so, why not live it to the fullest! In fact, Islam encourages us to always strive for the best! So, if we claim that we are Muslims, why don't we adhere to Islamic teachings and principles and belief? I guess all of us have the answer in us. Islam also teaches us to be kind to all Allah's creations, be it human beings, animals, plants...you name it, everything on earth! The key word...KIND. So, what about those extremists who bombed themselves? Well, again, I believe we are sensible enough to judge. Islam promotes peace, everything that brings goodness to mankind is Islam. So, let us together, Muslims...embrace our religion with all our hearts, so we will make this living in this world a better place for everyone...I mean, EVERYONE.
