i was talking to one of my very very good friend late last night till i couldnt wake up on time for class this morning... her friend just passed away after a drink driving accident, she was really upset and affected. he was having some problems and that is why he resorted to drinking. My condolences. I'm really sorry.
I understand it aint easy. And at times like this, people often ask;
"why me?" "why must this happened to me?"
i know it hurts, but dun blame god.
Why blame God for all the negative stuffs that had happened and why push the blame solely to God for all these?
If we know how to complain, then why didn't we learn how to appreciate God for all the things that he had given us in the first place?
For even giving you a life to start off with.
we never appreciate, we only blame. Human nature. Weird.
i dun need to be in any particular religion to understand that God only loves.
it is we ourselves who choose not to. If he had chosen not to give up on himself and not to drink and drive, nothing would have happened, and he would then have a lifetime to appreciate what he has...
this article so happened to appear before me a couple of weeks ago;
============== FEATURE EDITORIAL ===============
"Gratitude: The Great Precursor To Happiness"
===================================================
We won't be able to appreciate what gifts the future may bring until we learn to appreciate what we have now. Are you grateful? Do you notice the gifts you currently enjoy every day? Or are you too busy to say "thank you"? Someone wise once said, "The trouble with living is that it is so daily." Sometimes we need to step out of our lives to put everything in perspective. There is much to be grateful for. Trials are a part of life. We need to be flexible in facing these trials, and this requires an ability to see the good and opportunity in times of stress. Remember the saying, "When God closes a door he opens a window."? Who are we to expect a different door or a bigger window? Accept, don't expect!Sorry, dun intend to make it harsh... but i just dun like it when we dun appreciate what we have before us and took these for granted all the time, and when things happened, we just take the easy route out and push the blame away, say god. What is this?
stop blaming, start appreciating.
