There is always a sense of frustration that boils up in you when the end result you get from something is not on par with what you expected. I went through two such experiences this past two weeks. Dealing with one of them was especially hard.
Yet i experienced a deep sense of happiness two days ago when things took a turn for the better. And this happy feeling and thankfulness would have been lacking i guess if if i didn't have to go through all that keserabutan at first.
I've grown up a bit more i guess. The bigger picture is clearer now, insyaAllah.
'And if We give man a taste of Mercy from Us, and then withdraw it from him, verily! He is despairing, ungrateful. But if We let him taste good (favour) after evil (poverty and harm) has touched him, he is sure to say: "Ills have departed from me." Surely, he is exultant, and boastful (ungrateful to Allah). Except those who show patience and do righteous good deeds, those: theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward (Paradise).'
[Surah Hud verse 9-11]

hey, what u're saying is true. its hard to face the truth when what u're expecting is much higher. i think it happened to me couple of times before. it was really hard for me to let go. i felt demotivated at times because of it. sooner or later, i just have to face it and tell to myself that by regretting, the past won't change. sighh.
anw, miss u nab! i really do. wish me luck for exams ya.
sometimes what we expect isn't the best for us. yes it is difficult for us to realize that because we think that we know ourselves the best. but HE actually knows ourselves the best.
yup2. I think everyone gets it that HE knows the best for us and that ape2 yg happen pun it's for the best. tapi nak accept that kenyataan isn't so easy
everybody knows that HE knows the best for us, and ape2 jadi pn is ade hikmah, and blah3. but not many believe.
you can know many things, can speak about them very well, can draw pictures about them, etc. But you have to believe in them before you're able to realize them. i sometimes have problem with this too.
