A letter to God.

Dear God,

This is for the guy standing near the traffic signal, selling sweet smelling hand garlands, in hope to feed his family. This is for the old woman eating alone on a table with no one to share. This is for the kid sleeping on the street.

This is for the school girl dragging her feet towards the school gate. This is for the boy who's pretending to yawn to hide his tears. This is for a mother weeping for her child.

This is for the girl who just joined college and doesn't feel she fits in. This is for a doctor-to-be bent over his books, poring over them with tired eyes.

This is for every person who doubts they'll become what they're destined to become. This is for the people who're in love with their pain. This is for a person who sees the world in black and white.

This is for anyone whose mistakes the world seems to feed from. This is for anyone who feels they're alone.

And this is for me because I do not understand Chemistry.

I know you're seeing me write this, God. And I know you see all these people too. And me.

I'd really like You to ease their pain, dear God. But most of all, in the next 24 hours, please give them strength to smile. Even if it's just a single smile.

When I'm sad, I like to lay down and close my eyes and imagine all the beautiful people smiling at that very moment - somewhere out there in the world. I'm writing you to you this letter so that just in case you listen (and I hope with all my heart that you will), someone, somewhere in the world smiles because of me. Or my letter, anyway.

I love you lots. I am grateful.

Eternal love,
Me.

P.S. I'm serious about Chemistry. I don't get it. I was thinking, maybe, a sudden surge of intellectual brilliance in class?

Though You're right in your understanding and your Du'a.

But here is something if I take this Du'a seriously.

You get in this world what you wish for and what you pray for.
People who are selling are not in Pain. there is just this Balance of life.

But to feel their Pain Is just A Bravo thing to do.

I never understood any of the subjects - So you're already better than me. So keep on doing some hard work and may be you'll achieve it.

I just loved the way you wrote this letter- I don't disagree with anything you said. I just see the world from a different angle.

Just Loved it- +1 ;)


And I'll pray for you that you understand All of your subjects and may be my prayer hit you hard on your brain.
