Beliefs

I don’t know why I’m writing this now, but I am. It’s easy for us to believe in things and become convicted to the extent that we defend for these beliefs rarely practiced. But it’s never easy for us to implement these beliefs in action, it’s difficult to change things in our lives we’ve become so complacent with. I just found out that I’m graduating a semester early, and shit am I scared! WTF. WTF!!

It’s easy to believe in Islam and all the things it includes like Hijab, beard, not drinking, hanging out with the opposite gender, or smoking pot. But it’s difficult to implement it, it’s actually extraordinarily harder when you’re young because it’s not fun. I have two semesters left and man is there a HUGE difference from who I was. I used to hang out with guys who weren’t the most religious of guys, I used to smoke, and a whole long list too. But it’s changed A LOT. I still find it difficult to implement some things, but at least it’s getting better.

I like the new me, and my new friends. This time next year I might graduate inshAllah!! I want to move on, I want to get engaged, I want to get into a new school, I want to get a job and work. But will all of this change my beliefs? When was the last time you practiced and implement your beliefs.
