Perfectionists.
Perfectionists always have a vision to win, and be successful. They know what they want, and they work hard for it. It's a never say die attitude. Their sheer determination to excel is something I have full admiration about.
Probably success is the only thing they ever think about. They always want what's best. And sometimes, the best isn't just the best.
Despite that, perfectionists lack one thing. And perhaps, it's their strong faith in God. To believe that whatever they have succeeded in is all based on their effort, as an individual. Do they come to think that their effort plus God's blessing have let them be what they are now? I doubt it.
Perfectionists,
Allah's THE Perfect One.
And then, there are those bunch of people who are not perfectionists. They don't really have a goal in life, for example studies. BUT, they always think that they're the best among their friends, or people around them. Some sort like that. They don't want to take blames for themselves, rather look at others' flaws and weaknesses.
Take for example, Sarah. She cares for her friends, her family members, and a few men. So she says, she cares about them, and herself she doesn't. All her time, she goes 'all-hail-my-friends'. Next, she feels that perhaps, one of her friends have betrayed her. Just by the fact that her friend is jealous of her, in whatever way, in studies perhaps not. Maybe the bunch of men's attention that she has.
Does she goes 'all-hail-friend' this time? Naaahhhh. She blames 'the world', saying "What is becoming of the world today?" Blahh. Then she says that she has changed for the better.. Bla, bla, bla.. IT TAKES TIME FOR PEOPLE TO ACCEPT OTHER PEOPLE'S CHANGES. So, somehow, indirectly, she's trying to tell that her friend's imperfect. And well, like she isn't like that. Ask urself, everyone, we imperfect beings, haven't we felt jealous before? What's wrong with being a little jealous?
Sarah could've confronted her friend, ask her friend what is it that she's jealous about and explain to her. Maybe she's jealous 'cause she's doubtful of what Sarah does. And by giving the true explanation, doubts die.. and jealousy may fade away!
Being caring, and saying it, and showing isn't good enough. We have to think of what we're doing too. Priorities need to to be set. Bah. Setting priorities is great.
When u have problems, u mend it. Don't self-blame, and especially don't blame others too much. Look at ur problems, see what is it that u lack.. and presto! WORK ON IT.
God is by ur side. Think of Him. Pray. Thank Him, for everything.
Until Later,
Au Viderzeen.
