Thank you O Allah!

Thank you O Allah!

Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when the alarm rings,
Thank you, Allah, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf.


Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning light as long as possible,
Thank you, Allah, that I can see. Many are blind.


Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising,
Thank you O Allah,that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden.


Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when socks are lost,toast is burned and tempers are short, my children are so loud;
Thank you,Allah, for my family. There are many who are lonely.


Even though our breakfast table never looks like the pictures in magazines and the menu is at times balanced,
Thank you, Allah, for the food we have. There are many who are hungry.


Even though the routine of my job is often monotonous,
Thank you,Allah, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no job.


Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my circumstances were not so modest,
Thank you, Allah, for life.


If we can pass this on to most people we know, it just might help a bit to make this world a better place to live in.

Be Thankful for What You Have!!

Should you find something on your plate that doesn't appeal to you, don't complain. There are people who don't have anything on their plate.


Should you find yourself stuck in traffic, don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.


Should you have a bad day at work, think of the man who has been out of work for years.


Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.


Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.


Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance, think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.


Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror, think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes he/she had hair to examine.


Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.


Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities, remember, things could be worse. You could be them!


Should you decide to send this to a friend, you might brighten someone's day!
