I have realized


I have realized I'm strongest when I admit I'm weak
I have realized I'm a winner when I accept defeat
I have realized I'm happiest when not afraid to weep
I have realized I can fly when I let go off my feet

I have realized its invigorating when I let go
I have realized that love can be reborn
I have realized its cruel to scorn a broken heart
I have realized that acceptance can heal my soul

I have realized that existing is different from living
I have realized that perishing is different from dying
I have realized that death is just the start of the road
I have realized the road is just the start of death

I have realized that blood gives life, but gold does not
I have realized that the sky is endless, but pearls are not
I have realized that I'm richer when I let go of what I got
I have realized I'm more when I refuse that others are less

I have realized that time is an illusion that never exists
I have realized its a circle - and a circle has no end
I have realized that its my innocence that I most miss
I have realized that in pursuing, there is much I missed

    It's beautiful, though I can't claim I understand it all :-)

    This post is more than wonderful.

    But.. did u write it yourself or it's a poem or the lyrics of a song?

    I really can't add more. I was dazzled by these words, wanted to write you the best part I liked in it, but couldn't. as it's all so wonderful mashaAllah.

    And.. if u allow me to add,
    I have realized that the best feeling of a smile is when it comes after a river of tears.

    Before reading ur inspiring words.. there were things that i had realized myself.. and there were others that were brought to my attention.. like scorning a wounded heart is cruel.. something i was doing without really realizing i was hurting a person instead of helping them..

    so there u go.. that's one more person you enlightened..

    great piece of work, im sure i will be quoting alot of that :)
