When your brain states the obvious

When days pass and you reach the years through a repeated step

you tend to turn back and see what you've collected so far in your bag you've been carrying called "Life"

You tend to check your bag but it seems to miss alot of pieces and you begin to move back again. 

going to all those places your yesterdays lead you 

just so you could get those pieces. 

This new journey does not lead you to what you thought you were looking for. Instead open your eyes to a greater strive. More wonderful people. More joyous emotions. In short much more precious pieces for your bag to carry on

Now isn't that a twist? you never got the pieces you wanted but instead got much better ones

Oh what was i thinking you'll say... wasting my time back then when i could have done this

Oh silly you.. don't you see you're moving on. Don't you see what Allah has brought you? Don't you realize you have not wasted anything. Don't you see it is okay to make your bag a little lighter just so that you can store whats best for you ahead

Always trust in Allah the only lord who took care of you, proportioned you in a womb in ultimate darkness and written how you are going to spend your whole life. When i look back to my past and compare it with my present, i really don't know how i will thank my Lord for showing me a path to be more close to Allah and remember Allah. All these chances just so that i could gain benefit from it. And allah never gains anything from this. For He the Almighty does not need anyone but we need him. 
It is never too late to fill your bag with knowing your Creator and alot of Good deeds which allah commanded us to do with. Do remind that we hardly live long enough as those corpses in the graves. so fill your bag wisely.
