I know this might sound strange but whenever i look back at the 26 years i have spent on this earth, i usually end up dividing them into ages! there were the carefree days of my childhood when i didnt have a worry in the world! the same could be said about my adolescence! i term these days as "my golden age"! i know it sounds funny, even cookie but thats how i feel about those gone by years! i have very very fond memories of them! Than came my teens where i struggled alot! for a job (my family ran into some really tough financial crisis) for continuing my education, things were not very good at home in those days! we had verbal fights and disagreements all the time! i term those days as my dark ages! As for now i have a moderate paying job, still not out of the woods yet cause the financial crisis left my family in debt to a lot of people! but atleast we are not fighting amongst ourselves anymore! hmmmm..... come to think of it i havent termed this part of my life yet!! Do you do the same? if you were to divide your life into AGES like me what would they be? i am curious!! do share your thoughts!!

Hmmm, I dont think I can divide my life into ages. I dont either think that is somehow practical. Though I find myself agreeying with you about the golden age, I believe it was golden because we used to have no worries at all, to me life demands continoues struggle. And being a Muslim I think we can still bring those golden ages back if we start relying on Allah before relying on ourselves, i.e. struggling with complete honesty and leaving the results to Allah, and not getting dishearted even if the results are not according to our desire. Because its Allah who is of Supreme knowledge and wisdom. He only knows what is good for us and what is not. Perhaps we are struggling for someting which is not actually good for us.
