It gives DIFFERENCE in my life. A HUGE difference.

Assalamualaikum w.b.t. Peace be upon you my friends, pals, mates, cliques, people and whoever you are to me in my life. :)
Readers, this post means something HUGE to me. It's about my very own self. About how I've traveled, explored and found myself. And how I have changed throughout the days. And most importantly, it's about how I have treasured the real definition and purpose of this momentary LIFE.

Guys,
Days went by like paper in the wind. I was ignorant. Ultimately ignorant. Towards people, towards myself and most disgracefully towards my Creator, Allah s.w.t. I didn't know what my purpose was to live on this earth. Everything was vague. Too vague until I felt like I was blind. Blinded by the excessive entertainment and enjoyment that the world got to offer me. I was too fragile, so much vulnerable to restraint myself and resist all the temptations. I wasn't strong enough. Not enough to save myself from being thrown in such a life. What a disgrace.
But, now I have the guts to say that all that was way back then. Way back in the past which I could reminisce but not to regret. Regretting is undoubtedly good but life has to move on, I suppose.
As my journey continues, I get to find inspirations around me. They make me ponder about life. I start to give thoughts like when I am going to stop living such a life. Up to some extents, I know life isn't about having fun all the way through but we gotta live for a purpose. And I hope, I have discovered my purpose by now. Hoping that you have found yours too. My greatest gratitude would go to Allah s.w.t for giving me the second chance to live 'again'. My parents who have been my strength for all this while. And also to my friends who have got my back throughout this phase of my life. I know it's not an easy task, pals. Thank you again. And to someone that I have found very special in my life, who has been there with me along the way. Countless time of 'thank you' I would want to say to you, dear. :)

I get closer to Allah by time. And how shall I say this? It bestows me with tranquility. One thing that I have never felt before. Alhamdulillah. I feel much calmer now. And yes, He is my purpose. May this good thing stay. InsyaAllah.

Assalamulaikum w.b.t. Happy fasting.
