■ I walk along the street. There is a hole in the sidewalk. I am distracted, thinking about myself, and fall inside. IT WASN'T MY FAULT, BUT THE ONES WHO DUG THAT HOLE THERE. I feel disgusted, I AM A VICTIM OF THE IRRESPONSIBILITY OF OTHERS.

■ I walk along the street. There is a hole in the sidewalk. I PRETEND I DON'T SEE IT, THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM. I FALL IN THERE AGAIN. I SHOULD HAVE LEARNT THE LESSON AND SENT SOMEONE TO CLOSE THE HOLE.

■ I walk along the street. There is a hole in the sidewalk. I see it. I KNOW IT IS THERE BECAUSE I FELL IN THERE TWICE. However, I am someone used to always take the same path. Due to that, I fall into the hole for the third time; it’s the habit.

■ I walk along the street. There is a hole in the sidewalk. I WALK AROUND IT.  Soon after I pass the hole, I hear someone yelling — he must have fallen into the hole. The street is closed and I can’t go on.

■ I WALK ALONG THE STREET. THERE IS A HOLE IN THE SIDEWALK. I PUT A FENCE AROUND IT. I CAN GO ON MY WAY AND NO ONE WILL FALL IN THERE AGAIN. 

System was based on the principle of EQUALITY. There was no class difference between the RULERS and the RULED.

Decisions were made after thorough consultation and sound advice.

Everyone had an equal right on the NATIONAL EXCHEQUER (BAIT-UL-MALL).

Rasululah SAWS and the Righteous Caliphs never claimed exemptions from any stipulation of the law or priority over any one ..... AND THE LAW  made no distinctions between the POOR and the RICH, BLACK and the WHITE, LEADER and the LED.

In the presence of Rasululah SAWS, Salman Farsi, Suhaib Rumi and Bilal Habshi RA enjoyed the same status as that of the Nobles of the Qureish and Ansaar RA. 

There was never a PROTOCOL, GUARDS and SECURITY for Rasululah SAWS and the Righteous Caliphs. Rasululah SAWS and his Caliphs would walk through the streets to help the needy, attend the sick and shower love and affection on the down trodden.

MUSLIMS, JEWS, CHRISTIANS AND THE PAGANS, ALL ENJOYED THE FREEDOM OF 'RELIGION OF THEIR CHOICE WITHOUT ANY COERCION', EXPRESSION, AND BUSINESS.

The subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a Soul ...............

And learn that LOVE doesn't mean LEANING and COMPANY doesn't mean SECURITY ............

And begin to learn that KISSES aren't CONTRACTS and PRESENTS aren't PROMISES .....................

And begin to accept DEFEATS with HEAD UP and EYES OPEN, with the GRACE of an ADULT, not the GRIEF of a CHILD ............

And learn to build all the ROADS on TODAY because TOMORROW's ground is too uncertain for PLANS ...........

After a while you learn that even SUNSHINE BURNS if you get TOO MUCH .................

SO PLANT YOUR OWN GARDEN AND DECORATE YOUR OWN SOUL, INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BRING YOU FLOWERS.

 Duaien ......

If the Rub of the Green went your way; DON'T BE COMPLACENT, be more deliberate and methodical; sort out THE PROBLEMS before IT GOES THE OTHER WAY because it is the Rub of the Green.

 And if it didn't go your way, may be you require to go on the Drawing Board once again, don't lose heart; .... WHO KNOWS ABOUT THE 'RUB OF THE GREEN'.

The world is a wonderfully weird place,

Consensual reality is significantly flawed,

No Institution can be trusted, 

 Certainty is a mirage,

SECURITY IS A DELUSION,  

And the tyranny of the dull mind ever threatens,

BUT OUR LIVES ARE NOT LIMITED AS WE THINK THEY ARE,

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE,

LAUGHTER IS HOLIER THAN PIETY,

FREEDOM IS SWEETER THAN FAME,

AND IN THE END IT IS LOVE AND LOVE ALONE THAT REALLY MATTERS.
