HOPE EARNESTLY - STRIVE HONESTLY - TRUST GOD !

Salam O Dua

Friends I wrote yesterday that 16 December should bring out the resolve in us ... 'Adversities SPUR US ON' ...

Today sitting with friends and colleagues 'The Depressive State of Affairs' was the point to ponder ... My response as always was 'تندیءِ بادِ مخالف سے نہ گھبرا اے عقاب' ...

My take:

All those from the Arid (بارانی) Areas know that Life thrives on the Rains there ... Scarce and Scanty Rains, which come like the migratory birds in July/August ... And by September fly off ... To show up again sometime as late as February next ... This time though, it's a Blessing of Allah Karim that December saw a sprinkling.

The Wheat Sowing season starts after Mid-October and one has been seeing now for decades {irrespective, there is Moisture (WATTER وتر) in the land or not} ... Crop is sowed ...

THAT IS HOPE AND TRUST ... Come March/April and the yield is there, sufficient to sustain the growers for years and enough to share with the needy too.

Lessons:

Whatever the Circumstances ... What has to be done ... MUST BE DONE.

NO GIVING UP ... Quitters Never Harvest.

THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS ... and ...
