Puzzle 1: Myself

Who loves you? The answer is, it is YOU who loves you! ;)

 

As I laid down

On the soft bed
Immediately my eyes were closed tight

I heard certain sounds

Coming from distance
Calling out my name
Very gently, as it knew I was in pain.

Letting the voice
Kept calling my name
I tried to open my eyes
There I could see no one
Sitting next to me.

I was confused

I was scared
Who could that be
The one who had been whispering my name
Very gently
I didn't stop looking for that voice
I stood up and started walking.

Around the room, I paced every corner
I believed and I knew 
There must be someone in there
Accompanied me - crying
"Zimah... Zimah..."
Slowly, the voice appeared again
Right at the edge of my ears
I turned around but upset
There was no one pinched me from the back.

Without any control
The tears slowly running down my cheeks
I couldn't search for it

The voice

The voice which had been calling my name
Many times
Asking me softly to stop mourning
I turned around again
This time I know I wouldn't fail
I would instantly find it.

"Zimah, stop crying
Remember, He is always with you
Although you can't see Him
But He sees you
No matter where you are or what you do
He's always there for you
Whenever you need help
Just call His name out loud
In your prayer
He will never come to you
Because, He's always there, never leaves you."

I stopped crying
Turning back to the voice and asked,

"Who are you and why can't I see you?"

The voice said,
"Of course you can't see me..."

(Silence)

"But you can feel my presence.
Coz I am very close to you.
I will help to lead you to Him.
So, don't worry."

"Tell me, you are you?" Impatiently, I asked back.

"I am you.
Your conscience.
We are apart of one another.
I am someone called myself."

A beam of smile
Was drawn beautifully on my face.
'I'm not alone. I still have me and Him all the time.'
No matter how many people who might leave me
I will never alone
Coz I have myself, who will help me
To the right path - to my only Creator.

Note: No matter how much people might hate you or dislike you, and no matter how soon they might leave you someday, don't forget that you still have Allah and even your own best friend, which is yourself! So, let's start our day by giving tones of love toward ourselves. People might not see what is your specialty, but only you who could feel how much special you can be to everyone! Love yourself, before you love others.
