Sometimes,

Allah breaks our spirit to save our soul,

Allah breaks our heart to make us whole,

Allah sends us pain so we can be stronger,

Allah sends us failure so we can be humble,

Allah sends us illness so we can take better care of ourselves,

Allah takes something away from us so we can learn the value of everything we have.

When it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow. - (G.K. Chesterton)
