**************************

"In a world full of discouragements and hopelessness, be an inspiration."

Everyone of us has a weapon. Its use in good or bad totally depends on us. You'll have so many people around you who are warriors, some fighting with their foes, some fighting a million obstacles on their ways, some fighting to live, some fighting to survive, yet some fighting with their own selves. All of these people fight battles others know nothing about. The world has a lot of inspirational people. Some of them are those great warriors who fight bravely and tolerate their pain with great patience.

We know about some of these warriors and we see them fighting. One of the most powerful weapons that everyone has, are "words". Your words can help someone heal, your words can motivate someone, your words can keep someone going, your words can make someone realize their worth, your words can ignite a spark within someone, your words can evoke a spirit within someone, but at the same time, your words can break someone, they can make someone feel worthless and hopeless, they can be toxic towards someone.

The best example of the strength that a human possesses is vividly shown by Nature. For that is why I wonder sometimes, if the sky is a limit or a proof of extraordinariness? There are times when I keep thinking about this question. I think of the sky as a mixture, showing flamboyant colors, reflecting Nature's beauty and something which is extraordinary in every ordinary place. Is this a limit, a boundary set for us showing that the world is all about limits that are never to be crossed. Or is it a proof of how extraordinarily we're blessed, of how extraordinarily some goals should be set? The universe itself proves that the sky which exists there is to teach that it is a sign of extraordinariness. It is a proof of how extraordinary a human mind can be, which experiences different days, stormy, rainy, cloudy, shiny and gloomy. It's a sign of the heights that human minds must conquer. It is a proof of extraordinariness and it teaches to be extraordinary.

I would like to bring into focus the most common problem these days, "depression". Let me say it out loud and clearly so that the person at the back of the room can hear. Depression is a liar. Depression is a liar. Depression is a liar!

Depression will tell you, you have no one out there who wants to listen to you. It will tell you, you're all alone, there is no one who can understand you. Despite all the devoted friends and family, it will lie to you, saying no one loves you. It will bring you to a situation where you'll want to distance yourself from everyone and everything. You'll want to talk to no one because you'll have this toxic feeling within you, no one understands and no one is there. Whenever you go through these kind of situations, just know that you're not alone. Go and talk to someone about it, speak your heart out to someone close to you, who is not judgemental. No matter how much difficult you find it to explain your toxic thoughts to someone, just do it! Do not believe in lies that your depression has to offer you, believe in yourself who is put in a situation just because definitely you can face it!

"Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear." [Al Quran]

"Verily! I have rewarded them this Day for their patience, they are indeed the ones that are successful." [Al Quran: 23:111]

No matter how much badly someone treats you, always be patient and treat them kindly. No matter how much pain and hurt you have in your heart, never let that pain be toxic for you. Help yourself heal because you deserve growth, strength and goodness. No matter how many times people lie to you, never let those deeds consume your kindness. Treat people with the goodness you have in your heart, pray for them and let yourself be free from the bad deeds of others. Because in the end, it is not between you and others, it will be between you and your Lord.

"Young man, uphold the command of God and He will protect you in this life and in the next. Uphold the command of God and He will help you. When you ask for anything, ask it from God, and if you seek help, seek help from God. Know that if people were to unite to do you some benefit, they could benefit you only what God has recorded for you and if they were to unite to do you some harm, they could harm you only with what God as recorded for you. The pens are withdrawn and the pages are dry." [Al Quran]

Look at you,

Holding the knife,

To kill your own heart.

And when those drops of blood,

Come out of your wounded heart,

You expect yourself not to ache.

Dear! Just throw that knife away;

Let your heart be blissful and gay,

As pure as the spring water,

As clear as the beautiful crystal.

Move forward with an aim,

Be a part of that goodness,

Which is so rare in this world.

Keep exploring, keep smiling.

Keep rising, keep shining.
