Roslinda’s Reminiscence

People say that time heals all wounds but what if there are some wounds too deep to heal ? Some wounds that continue to remind you of the things that hurt you most ?  How many of us had, at some point or another, wished for an erasable memory ? One that allows us to pick and choose what we want to remember for the rest of our lives ?

I have had my share of pain and hurt and memories I wish I could erase but Im glad they are still with me because they are constant reminders of me being human. Capable of making mistakes, capable of foibles and vanities. Capable of trusting an dhaving that trust dishonoured. Capable of loving and having that love betrayed.

Do I have regrets ? Sure but that doesn’t mean I deny or reject what has happened in my life thus far because at the end of the day our joys and our sadness just mean that Allah wants us to learn something about life and in life that would make us stronger than we were before. If I fail to learn, if I fail to grow then that would indeed be my greatest regret. And failure.

Sometimes its hard. When faced with pain and disappointment and heartbreak, its tough to feel positive and think forward but thats the test of strength. How strong we are to remain true to ourselves despite our adversities.

I feel weak sometimes, I feel like giving up. Alhamdulillah I am still moving forward. Alhamdulillah I am still embracing challenges and thanking the Almighty for this chance for me to grow, Inshallah.
