Specially to a wonderful friend, Abdul Rahim whom I have known for 15 years. I had found a meaningful poem, which might be useful to you.
"Winning horse doesn't know why it runs in race.
It runs because of beats and pains.
Life is a race, God is your rider.
So if you are in pain, think God wants you to win."
Life has its up and down. More so, if you are a good man but face with a lot of obstacles in your present life journey. Especially towards the later part of our lives. We face next challenges and we have to accept changes as well. Friends we thought were sincere, played us out. Business that supposed to come our way, was taken away by unethical practises. Accounts to be credited to us were delayed for no reason. Our loved one, fell sick and we needed to pay the medical bills. All expenses rose up but income fell. I know these hardships are terrible for us to face.
If you could read another few more times of the above poem, I assure you, your belief and faith would change to be stronger. The pains that we are shouldering are God given. He knows you are a good man. He just wants to test your final journey, whether you could accept and overcome those pains. Don't forget here is not heaven. In order to qualify ourselves for that destination, can we take the pains of life.
We have the knowledge and wisdom, I believe we could make the best of what we have and be the final winner at the end of this journey. May God bless you but take the pains whole heartedly!

The words from a wise God-loving person always have the potent impact of bring a man back on track of the God-bestowed wisdom. The saying goes "A man may not have any control of what happens to him but he has complete control of how he thinks of what happens to him." From time to time a man may instinctively feel DISAPPOINTED but NEVER NEVER to DESPAIR.
