I start in the name of God, The Most Merciful, The Most Kind.
I really like this quote. It's by Audrey Hepburn.
"People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others."
The words are beautiful and they speak volumes.
We live in an era of throwing out people. It is a day and age of getting rid of people, I was going to say supposedly whom we may think 'we don't like' but the truth is they are 'people we don't understand'.
I think that's the key thing UNDERSTANDING.
The lack of understanding is what causes people to reject, neglect and 'throw out' others.
Many relationships, through out the whole of existence, have broken down due to misunderstanding(s).
Misunderstanding is what leads to 'throwing people out'.
We live in a day and age where if something breaks some people just throw it out.
Nobody wants to or can be bothered to FIX anything any more, they just throw it out. Into the trash...And wait for something so called 'better' to come along....
Which is a very sad state of this world we live in because there are many 'broken' and 'hurting' people out there.
The beauty of the above quote is this:
"Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms."
Maybe our hands are a metaphorical sign from God that we can indeed fix ourselves that's why he gave us two.
I wish some broken and hurting people out there would realise the strength of their own hands.
It's interesting that:
"As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others."
I think the growing older is not literal it's more a state of mind or heart. Some people REALISE this at a younger age and others at older ages. Then there are some that are just realising this or have not even realised this.
The people that have not realised this part of the quote below, are the people that throw out. The selfish people that do not care. The people who can put on a façade that they do care when they really don't. Those are the types of people that in the end will end up empty-handed because one day they will realise all the nothingness and breaking their weak hands put forth into the world.
"You have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others."
The broken-hearted people may look empty handed but they really are not.
Broken people gain more than they have lost and I wish they would realise this.
To all the broken people out there:
I hope you find solace in this [It's a quote by Hamza Yusuuf]
"God is with the broken-hearted. When your heart breaks, it's a good thing - the breaking of the heart is what opens it up to the light of God. The world {dunya} is designed to break your heart and crush it."
I found this image on Google and I found it so beautiful and so true. I believe that the flowers that give out fragrance to the hands that crush it are the ones with the most beautiful CORE. |
Sometimes hearts and people need to break to see the light in the darkness.
And in the darkest nights the stars and moon shine the brightest.
The most gentlest, kindest and soft-hearted people are the ones who were once broken. They understand.
& in the end Allah knows best.
& in the end Allah knows best.
