The Bird and Its nest

The Bird and Its nest

by ArRayyan Mawallil Tulawie

Occasionally, when I look outside my window, I always see this lovely bird resting on the balcony and she would just fly around intermittently.

One fine day, I was mesmerized when I noticed dried petioles and lawns which she singly pecked from the soil and patiently carried it to the fourth floor of our building.

Amazingly, I found out that she used it to build her nest to lay and incubate her eggs and to raise her youngs.

Sadly, one day, her unfinished nest was ruined by the gusty winds.

Nevertheless, she was unstoppable.

Out of mother’s ultimate love and mercy for her new offsprings, she courageously and tirelessly built a new one.

Alhmadu Lillaah, after all her great struggles and sacrifices, she successfully got her new comfortable nest where she can conveniently lay and incubate her eggs to raise her youngs.

Subhaana Allaah, this bird teaches me a valuable lesson.

Truly, in life, no matter the circumstances that you may go through, just push through it.

“Man Jadda Wa Jada” which mean whoever strives shall succeed.

A writer once said, “Never stop trying. Never stop believing. Never give up. Your day will come.” 

So, I must always be impervious to every trials of this life especially in this temporary world because I have always الله to trust, Who promises twice that after hardship comes relief.
