but how much you give to others.
it's not how high you build you dream that makes a difference,
but how high your faith can climb.
it's not how many goals you reach,
but how many lives you touch.
it's not who you know that matter,
but who you are inside.
believe in the impossible,
hold tight to the incredible,
and live each day to it's fullest potential.
you can make a difference in your world.
(Rebecca Barlow Jordan)
i love those words. other than the Book of Guidance, i too adopt these inspirational words to live by. no longer living a rat race life, a slower pace of diplomatic wife means i have been priviliged or perhaps even choosen to reach out for those forgotten ones. hidden behind thick and cold walls, there are those hunger for freedom and compassion. some are guilty, some are just plain victims. but even if they are sinful, they all deserve the chance for repentance and the second life.
the forgotten one. they are not here on this earth without purpose. some of them find their quest of the true meaning of life only when they get behind the concrete that deprived them of utter liberty and denies them of the connection with the rest of the world. though confined by the limit and control designed by human, many are blessed with spiritual journey, making them closer to the Creator and leading others too into the right path, setting them perhaps far better than us.
at the very least, they are here to give us the chance to do good to others. so lets open our eyes and our hearts widely. help those people to get back on life, render some supports so they would be able to give back to the society, country and religion should they been given the chance.
behind the thick and cold tall walls, they are forgotten, casted as insignificant and made unwanted. many would shun or turn them away, but let us be the ones who would accept them with sincere hearts and love them without either reservation or expectation. after all to err is
human, to forgive is divine.
