I see a man carefully hold the hand of a child as they make their way down the stair case of a bus leading to a road. They walk together towards the school where I just dropped off my son at and complained of the cold as I made my way back to the car. I whisper Ahamdulillah at least I have a car.

Often we forget and we need reminders. Even though I cant imagine life without some of the people or things that matter to me, in it. People around me either sometimes die or end up in very much more difficult situations than what I am faced with. Situations that I cant imagine myself in; yet situations that are a definite possibility.
