Let's fall~


Salam!

Read this. The story of a little girl learning how to skate.


"When learning how to skate for the first time, some of the key points to keep in mind are having a sturdy pair of skates and remembering that relaxation and technique are key" said father to her young daughter, Damia.

Skating lessons are as much a step forward for Damia. She doesn't want to skate because she was afraid that she might fall. She was unwilling to give herself a try. At first she didn't want to change her mind but finally, with full support from her father & after several hours of deep thought, she gave herself a chance. Skating taught her a lot of lesson.

"Don't be afraid to fall! Once you fell quickly stood up & continue to skate"

After 30 minutes of practice, Damia sits smiling on a little green bench, her face red and a bit sweaty. Yes of course with few bruises on her body. But that does not matter her much. The most important thing is she's now being able to skate. She loosens her chin strap, removes her helmet, unties her skates and slips her feet into her running shoes. She knew that she had made it. Successfully she overcome her weakness.


It's true! Don't be afraid to fall. The biggest obstacle to change lies within yourself and you have the authority over yourself. When we confronted with problems, hold on, handle it with easy , remain calm & relax. InsyaAllah, He will help you. In this life, sometimes we need to make a very hard decision that it is to start a process of renewal. We must dare to remove all those old habits. Do not let the past weaken our spirit! Live up your dreams and never give up. Trust me, Allah knows best.
