Confidence & Cloudy Skies

Login to find out (June 27, 2005 at 4:09pm)

What makes me confident is to believe in myself and Allah and have faith in him to give me guidance in life. My family and friends make me happy and give me confidence. And loving myself and being healthy gives me confidence. Being goal orientated, being ambitious and being organized gives me confidence. Loving and helping others gives me confidence. And seeing others happy and making others happy gives me confidence. There are times that I am frustrated and its generally has to do with me or my thinking. People will be people and there is nothing I can do to change that but I can change myself and my attitude or I just dont deal with people who make me feel that way and I walk away. Of course its not easy but have to do it. My achievements would have to be that I have been very much involved in volunteering and helping others out. Thats what counts for me.

Being healthy a strong gives me confidence and the feeling I can do anything. Being able to wake up for fajr in the morning gives me hope and happiness because I feel great that I'm starting the day of in a good way. Being with my family and friends definitely gives me joy. Being organized gives me confidence taht I can do things right!

My school/high school days were the worst of my life both socially and academically. However while at college I underwent a drastic transformation, and gained a lot of confidence (mainly due to great friends and profs). Since then I have been firing on all cylinders and things have never been better. I believe it has to do with the fact that whatever you seek or desire, just do your utmost to attain it (with the best of intentions) - if you fail, console yourself with the fact that you did your best, and move onto other ventures. Dont sulk .. there's always a way out.

i too find myself becoming a better person each day by trying not to do the things which were wrong before...

wow, mega.. didn't know that.. irfani, 'confidence is having the humilty to say I was wrong' is so true.. there are many situations in life where one picks/ decides/ says things incorrectly.. not being able to reassess can mean you're stuck going down a bad route/ or with the consequences of what you do forever.. and too arrogant to admit it

there is no humiliation in telling the truth,,, truth requires guts and only real people tells the truth all the time,, no wonder, the highest level of JIHAD is telling the truth infront of a dictator ( AL HADITH )

Lillyy and Labs- the translated poems were beautiful. Sorry, I ran out of Advil for the Urdu written in English. Not my forte.

the things that bring me joy when i least expect any(!) are hugs from my sprog........................... or the silly/ lovely things she says............................... ............. what makes me feel confident in times of adversity......... looking around at difficult people and realising i am stronger than some of 'em (having been through childbirth - yes extreme example i know), having come thru a divorce + the single parenting lark and still being a (vague) optimist + the strength i get from my family & friends
