Recently, I have watched an Indian movie called, "Guzarish" obviously, it sounds foreign to some of you. Its the Indian word for request. The movie's genre is just like any other drama, romance, family movies. In my case, it was a little different than what i have seen from my point of view. The movie showed me a light to live my life more optimistically. This movie was about a magician who has been paralyzed since a performance went wrong 14 years before. Ethan, the magician doesn't lose hope. As long as he is living, he dedicates his life to work and tries to put a smile in his fan's faces through the book he wrote and through his radio show.
I came to the realization that there are so many people in this world who are suffering from many life threatening and incurable diseases. We are healthy and living a perfect life that we don't be thankful enough for. If looked from the helpless people's point of view, our life is so much better and so much we could be grateful for. People are still out there wanting more and being greedy and these may lead to the path of destruction. We often do not realize how life is beautiful and we should enjoy every moment because tomorrow is not promised to us.
In the movie, there was a scene where Ethan is going out and while the driver is driving him through a field he sees, kids are playing, running and enjoying. He wishes he could be in their shoe and wishes he could get one chance to start his life new. Start everything all over and not be helpless. Life is so beautiful yet, we complain about little things that go wrong. We fail to realize that Allah put us through situations to learn from it and with the balance of sadness and happiness what we lead is a normal life.
There are thousands of people who are suffering so much in their life that they wish they could be in your place. So appreciate your life because there are others who wished they could have what you got. You should be thankful for everything you have because you are living a healthy and normal life.
So, I hope today's blog helped everyone to look at life more positively and ignore anything that goes wrong. Because without misery and problems life would be plain and boring.
so true.. Many of us (including myself) often complain about our looks when we should be grateful for having a flawless body overall, without any deformities or disabilities.. We should be thankful to Allah for givin us what so many unfortunate ones are not bestowed with..
