Almost one year ago I joined Rubel Sahaja. Many
things have happened during my participation in this
community. Happiness, sadness, excitement, and other emotions that I can't
explain, all mixed in my heart.
At first, my reason for joining the
community was to fill my day and find an activity that
could be a benefit not only for me, but also others. Because
I was at a down point at that time, when I felt useless and
didn't know what to do. Then I saw my friend's
post, where she shared about that community. I felt it
was interesting, so I told my friend I wanted to join the community
too.
One week later, my friend asked me to come with her. My answer was
yes. I didn't know if my choice right or not. I was very nervous, but
I tried to convince myself and prayed to
God, hoping He would guide my heart.
And yeay! I'm very grateful. How lucky I am to be among
these great people. We don't choose our friends, it
is God who rules the friendship.
We can learn from everyone, everywhere. Not because they live
on the street and don't go to school, so they no right to have a bright future
or successful life. No. They become teachers who teach me the
meaning of gratitude, acceptance, and living the life that God gives us. People
have their reasons for every act they do. Don't be so quick to
judge a person by looking at their appearance. Don't see
with one eye or underestimate people like them. They need our embrace, our
help, our attention.
I got clothes, shoes, bags, and other goods for them, but I'm the
one who was very excited. I never felt this feeling before.
Happy, not because everything is good, but because you can see the good in
everything. Being rich by giving to others.
I hope I can be a good educator for them and
everything will get better this year. Don't be afraid to dream big.
With Allah, nothing's possible. All good prayers for them.
Last, don't forget to be happy.
