The Blessing and Losses We Share

Death reminds us that life is short and it is not infinite. Any joy experienced throughout life, is not contingent on things going your way or having no losses, no disappointments or no (more) deaths. We must be grateful for all we have, and all we have been given from our Lord, even if it is for a brief time. The losses and blessings we share are the fabric of life. To love deeply is one of life's most profound gifts, and the loss of a loved one is one of life's most profound tragedies. Being happy doesn't mean we won't experience grief or sadness. We must be grateful to Allah despite such loss, knowing that "ALLAH DOES NOT BURDEN A SOUL BEYOND THAT IT CAN BEAR" (2:286)
