THE JOURNEY OF LIFE - WHY 50 GOLDEN YEARS?

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakaktuh dan Salam Sejahtera


Sometimes I wonder why when a marriage or a person reach 50, it is refered as 50 golden years. Is it really truly golden all way,  with all the nice and sweet memories to remember?

What is most important is to thank the one and only,  Allah S.W.T. the creator who has granted us 50 years of life and more.

We must not forget to see the fact that, in the journey of life, not everyone had a smooth sailing memories, there are always the ups and down, some even had to struggle in many ways to keep surviving, be what ever their challenges are.

Besides the untold stories, everyday we can read about the sad story in life affecting the lives of many families and invidual, old and young. Sometimes the bad or sad incident and experience is so severe that one cannot just forget and erase it from their memories and had to carry them for life and to their grave.

People do change, but sad or bad memories sticks and lingers.

For that, we turn to Allah the almighty for help and protection. so that we be protected and  granted with peace and strength to face all the challenges. @05.06.2014
