Lets reflect

No matter how big or seemingly small, in all categories of life most of the problems in the world are selfishness & greed. Why are some so wrapped up in themselves they can neglect compassion,empathy,responsibility,sensitivity,patience,sacrifice and much more. Reacting without thinking,one could easily yell & make a lot of noise, But it takes true patience,thought,sincerity & a practice of faith to find the calm within'. It means to listen. It means to listen to Allah. To have these strengths in turn would show in our outward selves. Talk with respect. Think with the intent to understand more than ourselves. To act with love and compassion. Simply look to our Prophet(s)..what would they have done? They are our examples.. Are we acting accordingly? And more importantly what would Allah think of you?Allah is all aware, yet we forget. It was said, if you have no shame, continue as you are. So ultimately we reap what we sow. To be a good person takes effort. This is what being mature is all about regardless of any age. Maturity comes from a state of mind which in turn shows in our voices and demonstrated in our actions.The way we deal & talk with others should be respectful. Use common sense...or at least acquire it. Live your life with GRACE. A.S.
