What Am I Missing?

Am I not a good person?

Sometimes it just feels like everyone is ignoring me.

It sucks, you know?

I thought I am capable on my own.

But I feel lonely.

I thought I am capable on my own.

But I desire company.

I thought I am capable on my own.

But I want to be acknowledged truly.

What am I missing?

All these conversations I have with myself.

Just because everyone else seems like they are living better off without me.

What am I missing?

This world is moving so fast.

I feel like I am slow in catching up.

Can someone.. anyone.. tell me?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

You forgot.

You forgot you have a soul to feed.

You forgot, on your own, you are weak.

You forgot, you need mercy.

You forgot, you have a Creator who deserves praising.

It has been a while since you last put your head on the ground, in submission to Him.

He gave you a life to live- you just took it all for granted, why do you need to pray and worship?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

It bothers you so much that no one seems to be responding to you.

Why does it not bother you that you are not responding to your God?

You have made yourself a god by thinking it is okay to not worship a God.

Who do you think made all these blessings in life?

Who do you think created your parents to give birth to you?

Who do you think you are?

You are no one, if you do not have Him in your life.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Loving yourself, is admitting the fact that you are a fallible creature.

And beyond, acknowledging your God.

Loving yourself, is loving He who created you.

A simple equation to start living life right.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

It is not too late.

While you are still breathing.

وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ 

 "And He found you lost and guided [you]"
