When I was a child, we were taught to fear Allah, to fear our parents and other elders, to fear our teachers, to fear our bosses.. you name it... anyone above us were made to be feared...
Then towards the end of highschool I became introduced to Islam (even though I am a born Muslim, I never knew much as I don't come from a practicing family) and suddenly it was all about love and hope... the fear was not about punishment, but fear of not being a worthy servant to the Creator... it really is beautiful but I'm not one to explain it so beautifully :)
So, ever since then I have tried to appreciate being in between hope and fear towards my Creator. And now, with things changing in my life....
Oh, since last night a new page has been turned in my life... may it be a good one inshaallah! I am on this path called life on my own now... I am STILL trying to get things sorted out and ready to start anew in Turkey. It seems like the next 2 months or so will keep me busy with just that! I have a lot of ideas... just pop pop popping... me is very excited... very hopeful of my future... but at the same time, very fearful... fearful of the unknown...
The hope is great, but you know, the fear is also great... I believe it is this fear that will be my drive to achieve success inshaallah.
Wish me well... Just wanted to updated as some of you have been asking. :) Further updates will follow up as they come inshaallah. :)
