TWO BOYS

Asalamualaykum (Peace be upon you!)

I thought I would post today as I got a bit of inspiration from someone who probably will never ever know how much his little speech had an affect on me. 

Starting from the beginning, I was doing something, whereby the window was open and two guys were talking outside. I didnt mean to eavesdrop but they just so happened to be talking out loud that I ended up hearing what he was saying.

One of the guys was telling his friends about how he wants to start a business from scratch in order to build his empire but the other friend was almost putting him down. The first guy did not take no for an answer and then he started drilling his friend about his actions and what he believes in.

One of the things that he said was "do you believe that if you want something so much then you will get up and get it and that if you don't get up and get it it will not come to you?"

He started mentioning the fact that his friend has gone so far from the deen and he tried to tell him to get back to it saying that god did not create us to be average and that he created us to do more than we think. He said that we all have a purpose and regardless of what you think your purpose is you make it your job to find out.

I am talking about two boys standing outside in the corner of the street who may look like they are up to no good. 

We do NOT know what people are capable of. We do NOT know the extent of the things we an achieve. It is our duty to find out what we can do!

Some people live ordinary lives and some live extraordinary lives. The difference between us as human beings is we need to seek out what is important to US. What is big in our lives and what we feel is the most important aspect of life that we need to achieve that could possibly weigh heavily on our moral scales.

This is not just for people who are religious, this is for everybody. 

Don't just take in everything that you are told, go out there and establish something that is important to you and make it worthwhile.

Don't settle for less.

Go out and make it big in all senses of the world, don't think of what society perceives as big, think of what will be big to you!

I believe in you..
