Havent been on for a few days.

First, thanks to those who left me comments and messages. I apologize if I have not replied, but I have not logged on to the site for a few days. With that being said, I will move on. I continue to learn so much everyday. Each new day seems to bring me closer to Allah. It's funny because everyday I think; 'wow, I have never been so happy.' Then the next day comes and I feel even a little happier. The more I learn, the more I pray, and the more things I do to make myself a better person, makes me feel like I am closer to Allah than I was before. That's a great feeling. 'None of you truly believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself.' Why is this so hard for so many people? I know I didn't always wish for that. I wanted just a little bit more than he. It puzzles me how I got like that. When I was a little kid, I wasn't like that at all. I truly did wish for my brother what I wished for myself. Somewhere along the line, I got greedy. Was it my parents, friends, American society in general? Probably a mixture of things, but I am just glad to be heading back on the right path. I wish for peace, happiness, health, and Allah's blessings upon all my brothers and sisters no matter where you may be. Salam
