The Football Score! Relax! It’s Just a Bend, Not the End!



Hello everyone and thanks for joining us for this episode of Radio Ruhaniyat.

Life is complete only when we face an array of situations, which help us grow as an individual. We always hope for the best but ups and downs are what make life what it is.

Tonya was watching a local football match in a school play ground. As she sat down, she asked one of the boys what the score was. With a smile, he replied; they are leading us 3-0. And she said, “REALLY? I have to say you don't look discouraged.
"Discouraged?" the boy asked with a puzzled look. “Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle? I have confidence in the team and the managers; we shall definitely overcome.”

Truly, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy's team. He waved at Tonya gently, with a beautiful smile as he left; She was amazed, mouth wide open; such confidence; such beautiful faith.

As she got back home that night, his question kept coming back to her... “Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle.”

Life is like a game.... Why be discouraged, when there is still life. Why be discouraged when your final whistle has not sounded. The truth is that many people blow the final whistle themselves!

But as long as there is life, nothing is impossible and it is never too late for you. Half time is not full time!
Don't blow the whistle yourself!

Sophia Loren once wrote:

“When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone. When I was sure of losing, I won. When I needed people the most, they left me. When I learnt to dry my tears, I found a shoulder to cry on. When I mastered the skill of hating, someone started loving me from the core of the heart. And while waiting for light for hours, when I fell asleep, the sun came out….That’s life!! No matter what you plan, you never know what life has planned for you. Success introduces you to the world, but failure introduces the world to you. Always be happy!! Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, God smiles and says, Relax sweetheart; it’s just a Bend, not the end!”

It’s not about what you couldn’t do so far, it’s about what you can still do! Life is not about how many times we fall. It is about how many times we get up after each fall! Everyone is born ordinary, but we all make ourselves extraordinary merely by framing our minds in a certain way. We are all different and very special… in our own way!

Our lives are very similar to a computer which has an INPUT, a PROCESSOR and an OUTPUT. Whatever we put into our lives, gets processed by our minds and then comes out as an output through our thoughts, words and actions. How we process our lives, reflects how sound our mind is.

Hardships, failure and unpleasant circumstances always bring along a blessing in disguise. We need STRENGTH while doing the possible but we need FAITH while doing the impossible!

And remember, even the word IMPOSSIBLE says: I’M POSSIBLE.

-Until next time, this is Preet Sahi reminding you to Stay Spiritual!
