To Whom It May Concern
Life is indeed like a rollercoaster, you will face your own vicissitude. You cannot expect a constant comfort, but you can always find comfort. You cannot expect a constant happiness, but you can always find your happiness. See what I mean?
My dear
friend, what I mean is that God’s tests are inevitable. They can be in any
form, even what you find as happiness might be one of them. Being sad,
apprehensive, and any other emotions are also unavoidable as human beings for
we are meant to feel. Don’t worry, you are normal to feel unhappy. We cannot be
happy all the time, anyway. However, there is always a way to find happiness
even in your worst. You just need to know where to look.
Pal, if you
are out there, feeling unhappy, lonely, and do not know what to do, please
don’t despair! No matter how nasty your life is right now, you can still grasp
your happiness. Look around! Trust me, I
know. I have been there too. Let me tell you my story.
Years ago,
I was in my darkest time. My happy life was suddenly shaken. I felt my world
was crumbling, my heart was aching, and my mind did not stop whirling. It was
difficult to accept such an ordeal. How would you feel when your source
happiness was taken away for good so suddenly? Exactly. At that time, I did not
know how my life would go on. I stretched out my hands and failed to grasp
something to hold on. As if, I were falling down, alone in a vacant space. However,
fortunately, I still had my senses with me before I completely lost. I realised
that I still had Allah, my true source of happiness. I thought, “Why don’t I hold on to Allah? Allah is my
Creator, the King of all universe, the Master of life and death. He is the
Author to my destiny. Why not asking Him my happy life?”
Then, my
friend, I prayed, I talked to Him,
spilled everything to Him. Believe me, little by little I felt relieved and I
could let go of my ordeal. I faced the reality. The reality remained unchanged,
an unhappy occurrence for me, but I then saw it differently. Allah has been
guiding me, all the time, if only I remember Him. I always do this to face
everything, and it works. Now, it was difficult to mention what my problem is
or when I feel sad, because I don’t see things as giant pains anymore, I can
find my happiness out of anything.
My beloved
friend, wherever you are, the key to your happiness is Allah. Communicate to
Him, be close and stay close to Him. Never walk away from Him. Certainly, Allah
will grant you happiness. You, of all people, should know this better. I remember
Dumbledore’s quote, “Happiness can be
found even in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.”
In this case, the quote is applicable, pal. To turn on the light, in our case,
of course means to find Allah.
I hope what
I said could get through your heart, and open up your eyes to act right away.
It is neither a psychologist nor a psychic who can make you feel happy. It is
you! All along, the key is in your hands! You would have been happy if you used
the key to find Allah sooner. Well, I truly hope you could make it. Let me know
when you do. Live happily!
Cordially
yours,
-Servent de Déu-
