Its Ramadan. Well, almost the end of. And I am not ready to say goodbye just yet. I have learnt alot about myself, my values and my beliefs this month and I just wish its stay was just a bit longer. Of late, I have had great opportunities given to me, and although I am very humbled and thankful for them, it has made me make some really tough decisions.
"It is when you are really tested, will you know how much your values mean to you."
And especially now, can I really vouch for that. However inviting the prospect of an opportunity might be, if it infringes on your values - I don't think it is ever worth it despite many people having sacrificed theirs before you. Like the picture, the road that most people take might not be the best one. And I would like to think that the poem by Robert Frost rings true for me, especially now:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— | |
I took the one less traveled by, | |
And that has made all the difference. |
May I always have the strength to be steadfast in my values and beliefs. Till the day I die. Ameen.
