It's been a weak since I've been taking university entrance test classes. They start at 6:30 in the morning every day, including Sundays, and pack up is at 2:15 in the afternoon. Very hectic, especially because it's Ramadan, the fasting month.

Every day, on my way back home, I pass through the market place. There's a shop in front of which the traffic is usually jammed, and it takes some time for one to get out in one piece. Today, while I was stuck there, I looked around, and saw that right beside the door of the shop, on the wall, was a poster.

A quote of Hakeem Luqmān.

Hakeem Luqman, or Luqman the wise, was a very wise man in history. He was a healer by profession.

He said that; "I've used 300 different medicines in my life to cure people. But during this long period of time, I learned that the best medicine for man is 'love and respect'."

He was asked, "if these don't work then?"

He smiled, and answered "fate."

When I read this quote, I smiled to my self and wrote it down in my diary.

True. A doctor's reassuring smile is enough to let the patient know that he'll be fine. Your smiles and your behaviour towards someone, can cure any problem. If others don't smile at you, it's ok. You have you're own smile and believe me, your own smile is always better then the others. Your smile can make others smile too. And if that that doesn't work? Don't worry. Fate is the best and worst of teachers. It teaches the best lessons in ways one can't even imagine.

You have problems in your life? Smile and show your respect, your best behaviour towards others. And if that doesn't work, Fate will surely do the work.
