Born This Way

Just a little thinking.

For me, every human is born to this world, with a mission.

Mission I say?

Yes, a mission.

You know, Imagine God sending our soul down to earth with a tape instruction a-la Mission Impossible.

"Mrs A, you are born to this world into a poor family."

"Mr B, you are born into a country in constant turmoil and war for the past 50 years."

"Mr C, you are born as a disabled guy with one feet and no hands, to a family in Chernobyl."

"Mrs D, you are born as a woman with a transgendered inclination, and you will have the constant need to change yourself into a man."

You were given the mission, and you are expected to accomplish it.

It is a mission and also a test.

As He sees you go around you daily life, he carefully watches your move, and how you go about with your mission.

Do you complain? Do you get angry and rebel? Or do you try get through it, by cheating, lying, or stepping on others?

God, I dare say, is a better boss of you than the guy in Mission Impossible. Truthfully, I think he does not put finishing the mission as a requirement. Rather, he wants to see how you react through it and live with it.

We complain about how our lives isn't happy. Why did God made me this way? Why am I born poor and ugly while that girl over there is a perfect ten and rich too?

Then we forgot, she is here on a mission too. Some people--we may not see it--but they have their own mission. What if they were born rich, pretty and popular--to test whether they will be arrogant and cruel to others? Will they enjoy and exploit every single thing of life's pleasures while forgetting what they were living for?

So I guess, be content with what you are born for. Don't blame, don't judge. Find your way to live through it, without abusing power, money or other people. And it doesnt matter if you complete the mission, it's the journey there that counts.

Assalamualaikum!
