Everyday you discover that there's more in life than the things you choose to let it get to you.

There's more than your favorite pencil that you cried over losing it in kindergarten, there's more than that guy who left you for someone else in High school, or that one subject in College that you challenged yourself not to fail, and you didn't fail. 

There's more than dating that guy who had it all in college, and crying over your first heartbreak.

Getting mad at your best friends because they don't understand, because there's more than being understood by someone other than yourself.

There's more in this life than giving and expecting in return, being disappointed everyday by people you "thought" you loved, being used for who you are and not understanding why, or being betrayed and lied to by people you "believed" they had good intentions for you. 

There's more than believing that you need to figure out your life now, whenever that "now" is for you. There's more than asking yourself "when" when am I going to be successful?

When am I going to settle down? 

Or asking yourself "what if", what if I didn't choose that Major? What if I chose to travel to work abroad? What if I didn't let that guy down? 

There's more in life than choosing not to eat that piece of cake just because you want to look like supermodels or that you starve yourself because you want to become a size zero. 

There's a lot of achievements that you go through everyday, sometimes you don't even notice them. This is how unimportant you "think" they are, although they are very important. 

Sometimes the simplest act like smiling back at your colleagues at work is considered an achievement, going back home to find a meal prepared for you, that love you get from your friends and family, talking to your Uber driver in a kind way because he's not less than you in anything, looking at yourself in the mirror and thinking how beautiful you are, forgiving yourself for all the mistakes you did to yourself, then later on forgiving others, learning how to let go and move on from the past, knowing the difference between what you want and what you need, knowing that even if you're not there yet, you will reach soon. thanking God everyday because he blessed you with so many blessings that you sometimes forget about.

I might get caught in the wrong road, I might end up where I don't want to be, I might think twice about taking the same road again, believing that somehow I might have a different end. I might as well take a different road, that I thought would be the right one to realize that I actually had drifted.

Even after all these years of taking different roads everyday, I never give up. I never take a single road believing that I could fail at the end, although my feet sometimes fail me, but deep inside I start the road with good intentions, that at the end I'll reach a good end. I might fall 10, 50 or 100 times but you have to know that every time I fall, I stand up stronger than any time before.

We all know that what comes around goes around, and we also know that كما تدين تدان ولوبعد حين

But I know that other's Karma is not my business. I've never felt great about sharing or congratulating the misfortunes of others. 

What I'm saying is have some class and some compassion. Remember it applies to everyone.
