love the save!

yeah..pretty scary...how dyou stop your brain thinking stuff like this? if your blog hadnt ended where it has then i think i would have stopped reading... just had one of those moments recently and didnt want another one.

what are those "moments" called? cant we come up with an awesome name, to mkae them a little bit less *cringe* ...scary. >.>

Yeah it is weird.
Because sometimes my train of thought goes like that and I don't know why, but it just makes me think of the things that I want to be thankful for and it makes me realise how life is so short. I'm not sure wether I'm scared of death or I'm scared of life after death, because to be honest I think that because I'm young I've got a lifetime to go, but that's not true, because a week ago my cousin collapsed and we found out that she had water in her lungs and she's only 17 and that made me realise that all these things can happen to anyone.
If I'm really truthful, I'd say that I'm more scared of my parents dying than me. Because I feel like if my parents are not here than I would be nothing in my realtives eyes. I'm here today because of what my parents are and without than I'm nothing.
Anyway I guess we all have to die some day and when I'm thinking about dying then it makes me more motivated I guess to do good things, so that in the afterlife I will be granted good things.
Anyway enough about dying and more about living today as if it's our last day and taking each day one step at a tme.

it does make me thankful, but the predominant feeling is fear for all my sins.

dude thats scary.

May Allah (subahanahou wa ta'ala) give her shifa, Ameen.

It doesn't so much scare me anymore. :/ Is that strange? It makes me repent alot more often than I used to. It makes me do right more often than wrong, It like well it like puts up a wall betwee me & all the wrong I could be doing.

I don't see life as well I'm young I've got a whole lifetime ahead of me cus well it may end today, tommorow, the day after, whenever. I just try to make everyday full of good rather than bad. Everythign more serious. I live everyday like it's my last, some think thats bad for me, but I think it's good, because it's brought me closer to Allah, more down to earth, & well away from most materialistic type things. I go with what my heart & instincts tell me as long as that is right, and I follow what I'm passionate about. I somehow think that I was gifted with what I have in order to help people, thats why I think I'm here. So everyday & every oppurtunity I find to help someone in anyway thats what I do, It's strange maybe, but thats what I do. It's who I've become. & I don't beleive that helping others in anyway is wrong as long as your helping them toards the right & doing something good.

& I never stop thanking those who I love & letting them know what they mean to me. Cus I wouldnt want to leave without them knowing that.

i try to do this. but sometimes i find it difficult to keep doing good and avoiding the bad.

as for everything e'S, you need to keep a balance. Allah's worship is all about balance between fear and hope. You have to do the same with Living. and i know you can!

lol how do you know she isn't keeping a balance?

because of the bit where e'S said that she lives like she's going to die tomorrow and how people are saying its bad for her.

Yeah I thought maybe she was but then I thought against it. I think she just means she tries living the right way and trying her best *everyday*. Not thinking "I'll improve tomorrow" etc.
Anyway she can clear that up herself...

It's just that, yeah I try to do a lot, sometimes even I know it's too much, but I can't stop because well I like to help, I always want to be doing something good, creative I want to be out there helping someone whether thats my mom, Or I'm doign cahrity work, Or I'm writing some bars. They use the your young, go out have some fun, Which yes I do every know and then but not as much as I use to, It's like a huge change in who I am and who I want to be, & well I guess its slightly overpowering.

Think about it like this; if you're always on the go, you're going to exhaust yourself much quicker and in the end will do less in the end.

I guess so but I'm so used to things happening fast, & dealing with it that I don't want to miss anything.

canwe discuss your sig$

"death ruins plan" does it?

or did you guys alreadydiscuss this on fb?

and you actually hear them walking away... i wonder if you have memory... and remember about the next step of whats gona happen, the angels coming etc..

actually...i think its all in the heart. coz. you gotta bELEIVE it - just like the answers to the questions- you'll only be able to asnwer them if you BELEIVED it (in your heart)

while writing this was thinking about how people would say "let me go back to my family to tell them" so i thought that must be memory..but again, its the heart- family will be the people you loved. with your heart.

tis all about the heart! (am i allowed to link my blog on here?) i kid i kid!

I just noticed your signature feefs, jazak'allah. Days like today I need to be reminded them things and it helps ever so much when I see that I myself said them words to me in the past.

As I stood among these strangers with death before my eyes, and a six-foot deep grave that felt suffocating from above, the importance of my worries drifted away, and I began reflecting on the temporality of life. It dawned on me how near we are all to death, our inevitable fate, although many of us think about death very rarely.

"A moment of true reflection is worth more than ages of heedless worship,"

When you become mindful of death, you think and act differently. It becomes difficult to lash out in anger when we know how near death could be. A person conscious of death would think twice before defrauding and deceiving another human being. By remembering that we will all perish and be buried in dirt, taking none of our possessions with us, it becomes undesirable to wrong or hurt someone intentionally. But one has to realize that death is inevitable.

Thoughts of death need not flood our minds with sorrow and negativity, as we should understand that death is a natural part of the journey of life.

JazakAllah for tht

I think about death often. What scares me is the possibility that the life that I have lived might not be good enough to get me to the other side. The thought tht I could die right now or the next day and I havent done as much as I could have done. Thats what scares me. Then you have Judgment Day. Thats a whole other story...
