As long as you're a human, stop bragging!
By Rara - Sunday, February 10, 2013
Please don't. You won't go far. You'll either become a fool by feeling great cause people around you pretend as if they're amused or you'll be unlucky enough to be humiliated in public.
That's all. You know why? Because we're a human. If we're better than some people, then there are some people, in fact more people are better than us!
Because we're a human. We're not The Almighty who has everything. Everything that we see, have, or feel, belongs to Him. Our intelligence belongs to Him. He's the one lending all of these to us - for awhile. He can take it anytime he wants.
You can play guitar? You can sing well? You can dance? You can write with your eyes blinded? Ummmm you can fly?
Okay, what can you do with it? Does it helps the starves? (Stop exagerating, girl!! :p) Does it spreads beneficial knowledge to others?
Does it brings you any closer to Allah?
Are you happy enough by being praised, respected, admired by others? That's all?
Did I ask question too much? Are all these questions hard? You know by heart what the answer is right at the moment you read my questions.
Even Islam has been using music as a treatment, as long as with Islam as the guidance, we can dance as much as we want too. Fly? Yes!! Islam encourages us to seek knowledge, any form of knowledge that are beneficial to us! In fact, useful knowledge is one of the continuous 'amalan even after we have encountered death. As long as the knowledge is beneficial to others, we get the credits.
Back in those years, being able to play guitar and sing used to be one of the attractions in someone - because it was rare, but not anymore! We can see it ourselves, no matter how much we're good at something, at one point, things will change. We're no more the number one.
Who told us to be the number one? Do we need to be the number one in this world? You did. You set a limit for yourself, when you can actually set a higher limit, to be the number one to Allah. Allah, the one who cares about us most, who loves us more than anything could exist.
