Opportunity

December 01, 2016

Assalamualaikum. Allahumma Solli ala Sayyidina Muhammad.


"Once you are given a good opportunity, grab it. Do not ever let it go."

One of the quotes that I used  to remind myself. My own quote. This quote reminds me about the opportunities that I got in the past. Family, healthiness, education, friends and much more. And most of all , Islam and faith. Alhamdulillah.

Sometimes, I wonder. Look  around us. There are some people who cannot further their studies in university or colleague. There are some people who had problems with their family, work, and friends. Some of them do not have father or mother or lost their siblings. There are so many sick people that need to be treated nowadays but they do not have enough money to pay the hospital bills.  Many people in this world do not get enough food to eat while we, in Malaysia, have heavens of foods. But still, we are stingy, arrogant, and wasteful.

Why? Why? Please. Don't be like this. That's why when you are given a good opportunity, grab it. Think it wisely. Don't hesitate.  Ask for adults' advice and don't forget to pray to Allah and ask Him to show the right path.

Actually, the main point is, I want to share this quote to all of you. There is a reason why I bear this quote in my mind. I had been given the opportunity to further my studies in the course and at the university which I would like to go. When we are studying, suddenly, we become lazy to proceed to study. We want to give up. We feel like  we will certainly fail in this course . No! No! No! Don't give up , man! Yeah , I know that sometimes we get something that is not suitable for us or maybe, vice versa. If it is really really not suitable for you, then change your path. This means Allah gives you another choice. So, choose the right pathway that gives benefits to you, your family, religion and our country. If you think that it is suitable for you from the beginning, then keep on that path. Don't ever let it go. Grab it. Even though it is hard, Allah knows it is the best for you. That's why He gives that opportunity to you.

So, when I feel lazy and almost give up , I motivate myself by using this quote. It makes me think twice and burns up my passion for pursuing this course.

For others, don't give up, okay? Find something that may inspire you , that gives you the spirit to go through all the difficulties. For examples, your parents, siblings, and friends. Enjoy your life in university. Don't be too stress in studying. If you have a great friend, don't let them go. Keep in touch with them. Okay. See ya!
