i guess its a complicated argument.

how much faith/trust would you put into god?

i know i am willing and able to risk it all.. im not sure if i would want or allow others to do the same.


hope you do well.

each and every path of every individual is well within the sight and knowledge of allah swt.. thats the god i worship.

well our faith does require us to believe that nothing happens without the will of Allah. So if beta blockers are not controlling someone's hypertension, there are biochemical reasons for it, but that is how Allah had willed it billion of years ago in loh e mahfuz. Too bad for that patient. And not just him, it happens to all of us in one form or another.

Am I the only one who notices this? It seems like more and more people nowadays are walking around with a huge chip on their shoulder and are so quick to have a negative/catty reaction to someone than a friendly one.

Why is that? The Recession/lack of funds? Racial tensions boiling? Because it's "in" to have a bad attitude? I don't get it. This also applies to us muslims.

A lot of people are neither friendly nor unfriendly, but simply street-wise. If you live in a large city, you might develop what looks like a chip on your shoulder, but is actually a means of survival. It's a jungle out there.

That said, some people are mardy temporarily because of circumstances. They can get on with people, they're just sometimes sad or angry because of their current circumstances, and they might be 'glass half-empty' kind of people, but they're not bad people by any means. They don't go out of their way to make others feel bad.

Others are just mardy bums. They tend to only get on with people as a cynical way of manipulating them. Rather than being a glass half-empty type of person, mardy bums empty the glass, smash it, then look for other people's glasses to destroy. Misery loves company, and mardy bums find joy only in destroying the happiness of others.

I have lived more than four decades and have seen changing of life style from a decade to another decade. But I don't feel people nowadays are less friendly or more friendly. At least in my place.
