I am iron man. Deal with it

I wasn't the best kind of child when I was ten, nor am I now. I've a long way ahead of me, if God wills it. and I have tread so far already. Twenty years; although I admit to have wasted some of it not with stupid things, but without really doing anything. Through mistakes we learn, through failures we strive, but when it comes to doing nothing, we gain nothing.

So I am today, thanks to the two out of many teachers in my life. They saw greatness in me when I was at my lowest, when I had none to show for. I was not the nicest, I was not the smartest, yet they were there, always guiding me.

I am not perfect today, but Alhamdulillah for this great blessing. For the knowledge, for the discipline, I can never repay. Hopefully someday I could become the person they envisioned me to be--if not better, insyaAllah. May Allah bless.

There are others, who were there for me as well. But from these two, one who taught me compassion and beauty of Islam, the other who disciplined me military style, turning me dark and bald (haha).

Sometimes we take our teachers for granted, only to realize in the future how much they had done for us.
