I am that 13 year old child. I'll literally be about to do something, but let someone else tell me to do it, the 'irritation' switch in my brain gets flipped on, because 'who are you to tell me what or what not to do?' and a task I would have done mindlessly, maybe even enjoyed becomes a hurdle that I have to scale. Aarrghhh
Tell me about something disorganizimg my schedules. I am an organized soul down to the folders on my phone because having 'everything' organized really gives me a semblance of 'control' and anything that disrupts that could drive me crazy. But of course, I know that as humans, 'being in control' is a dream and we're not really in control so yeah, belief in qadar helps me not to lose my mind when it gets tough.
I'm learning to tie my camel and then trust Allah these days.
Hi! As soon as I started to read today's post is when I remembered that this might be a continuation of the previous; and I silently hoped not. Imagine my joy that it wasn't! Not because the topic didn't really deserve a conclusion but because, I had moved on. I'm not a "Part 2" type of person and the two points you made, made perfect sense. Another angle is the "Now" aspect. What isn't concluded today, is likely to be irrelevant next week and it's no one's fault, thats life. Great Article today, well done!
