Allahu! I knew it. Hobbies reflect one’s personality. Maybe
in the most subtle way we could imagine.
As I have mentioned in my previous entry, my hobbies
certainly are to be around Mother Nature and to photograph her as best as I
can.
A friend of mine invited me to visit Snowdon Mountain in
Wales this winter and I checked it out on Google just to make sure that this
place is as promising as my seniors have told me. It turned out to be my
mistake to think like that because it has fantastic view all around.
I know now why I loved both of my hobbies so much. I am a
person who uses analogy to make people understand my content while talking or writing
sometimes and it clearly shows that this is my thinking pattern for lots of
matters.
I love how my hobbies symbolise life, my life specifically. I
always see a mountain or a hill from the ground as something so magnificent, so
glorious standing on its own. Of course, then I would be intrigued to climb it
but a person is vary from another physically and as for me, it consumes a lot
of energy and emotions(whenever I feel like giving up halfway up the hill).
After reaching the top, I would immediately have my phone in my hands to take
photos to bring back home. Once I got home, I would edit them or leave them
originally and post them on social media or for my personal file.
Nouman Ali Khan (Islam preacher) once said that if we see the
world as we should be, every creature and manmade stuff can be a medium for us
to reflect upon our life and our doings.
So, would you want to change your thinking pattern once in a
while? Sometimes, change is good for both our souls and bodies. I’m saying this
because most of us have changed already. As kids, we imagined stuff, we were
more positive than we are today, we were innocent, we practically used analogy
if you can recall your childhood? Imagination explains it all! Now, we became
more realistic, seeing the world as it is; a cruel planet to live on as can be
quoted as “only believe what we can see” even love can be misinterpreted to be
the meanest feeling. Guess what? All of us have been through a lot. Me too.
But, we should never blame on others for what we have done wrong. We are the
cruel creatures, the world is the victim (if we want to discuss about global
warming etc.)
You know what I’m talking about. We were born for a purpose.
To make peace and it is never too late to start something nice. We might have
taken a false corner but we can always turn back around and get on track right
this moment. I repeat, it is never too late to change for a better tomorrow,
for a better us. We struggled. I know we did though I never knew your terrible
stories but I am now trying to convince myself by writing all these down for us
to remind ourselves that we are smart and good enough to our own self that we
can change for the better. All good things can be done alone but it is much
more powerful and effective if they are done by a group of people; a community,
a country, every soul in the world.
This reminds me of the victorious era when Muhammad pbuh
ruled Makkah. This is a fact agreed by great historians and scientists and
economists, not simply a religious point of view.
Please drop a comment if you have something to say or to
express an opinion. They would be very useful for me to improve next time.
***I think I will definitely accept the
invitation.
Thanks. Salamualayk.
