Dissolving Chains...

*************************

1. "And whoever does evil or wrongs himself but afterwards seeks Allah's Forgiveness, he will find Allah Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."

(Surah An-Nisa, Ayah 110)

2. One of the best things we can do in our lives is this: Begin Again.

"Begin to see yourself as you were

When you were the happiest and strongest you've been.

Begin to remember what worked for you

And what worked against you,

And try to capture the magic again.

Begin to remember how natural it was when you

Where a child--

To live a lifetime each day.

Just because you may have failed a moment ago,

All day today,

Or for the last six months,

Or for the last sixteen years,

Doesn't mean that you are a failure for life.

What matters is what you are going to do now,

Don't hold on to the past because you are afraid to let go.

Begin to forget the baggage you have carried with you for years:

The problems that don't matter anymore,

The tears that cried themselves away,

And the worries that are going to wash away

On the shore of tomorrow's new beginnings.

Tomorrow tells us it will be here every new day

Of our lives;

And if we will be wise,

We will turn away from the problems of the past

And give the future--and ourselves--a chance

To become all that we can be."
