Eid Mubarak Values

Stumbled upon a poem recently which brings me back to a realisation I experienced over Ramadhan.I thought it's one of the perfect months to purify oneself to learn to genuinely forgive others without any grudges held inside.

Never Give Up Being Loving and Giving - Visitor's Poem
by Mary Sasmiro
(Hong Kong)

Forgive someone when you have been hurt
because they may not know how hurt it feels
but don't curse them for hurting you...
because you then become someone no other than them...

keep believing that the best thing in life is to love and to be loved...
family, friends, loved ones...
let them know you loved them...
one simple genuine smile
a deep look when you talk to your loved ones...
and simple be there to listen...
it means a lot...

I feel fortunate to be able to feel hurt
yet also able to feel blessed
life is a roller coaster...
when you can accept
life is sometimes bring you to top
and can crash you to the bottom
but then you able to stand still
you know you are not a loser
winning is not about being number one and beat other...
winning is all about accepting your failure
and learn from it to be a better person
winning simply is just win yourself back from falling to the grief

to whom who is falling down
to whom who is hurting
to whom who is aching
believe that no matter what...
no matter how dark the day today
tomorrow will still come
and the sun will still shine



HAPPY EID MUBARAK to all Muslims out there =)
