Let's not forget...

Life, health, the faculties of hearing and seeing, two hands and two legs, water, air, food - these are some of the more visible blessings in the world, while the greatest of all blessings is that of Islam and correct guidance. What would you say to someone who offered you large sums of money in return for your eyes, your ears, your legs, your hands, or your heart? How great is your wealth in reality? By not being thankful, you do not render justice to Allah's countless favors. - 'Aaidh ibn Abdullah al-Qarni


On the day I discovered there is a ganglion cyst on my left foot, I realized:
Be able to walk, to run, to jump, to dance freely with no pain on the feet is truly a blessing from God. Let not forget about this.
