"Live Each Day As If It Were Your Last... Tomorrow is Not Promised."


​
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are and who you want to become. You never know who these people may be: they can be your neighbor, child, long lost friend, lover, or even complete stranger who, when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way. And sometimes things happen to you and at the time they seem painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential strength, will power, or heart.


Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.Without these small tests, whether they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved straight flat road to nowhere, safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.
  • The people you meet who affect your life and the successes and downfalls you experience create who you are, and even the bad experiences can be learned from, In fact, they are probably the poignant and important ones.

  • If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart...

  • If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

  • Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again...

  • Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen, let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high... Hold your head up because you have every right too. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself... for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either. You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live in it!

nice post :) good reminder. but there was a scholar(i forget who and ishALlah i will try to find it on youtube) who gave a talk about how we shouldn't live as if it is our last day in many aspects. We still have to live as if there is tomorrow in a lot of ways. hmmm, it was a while ago i listened to it but inshAllah ill find it again :)
 
yes but i mean in a another context like to as many good deeds as you can because you dont know whether you will live tomorrow so strive towards paradise as much as you can

Inspiring post sis. Jazakallah.

i can tell you didnt get this from a Muslim site

The real reason to live each day as your last is found in the hadith at the end of this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkEBUC0APMg

[Sahih Bukhari : Volume 8, Book 76, Number 425]

Narrated Mujahid (Radi Allah Anhu): 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (Radi Allah Anhu) said, "Allah's Apostle (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) took hold of my shoulder and said, 'Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler." The sub-narrator added: Ibn 'Umar used to say, "If you survive till the evening, do not expect to be alive in the morning, and if you survive till the morning, do not expect to be alive in the evening, and take from your health for your sickness, and (take) from your life for your death."
 
bro T.I.A i sujjest u do not give out any info or answer questions which u do not have full knowledge. i have found some wrong answers u have been giving me and i have corrected the mistakes. so i urge u not to answer questions people ask unless u are 100% sure.
