Today I Made a Difference

Salaam beautiful people! How have you been lately? I’m coping with things, alhamdulillah (: So yeah, few weeks ago someone actually spend a day with me asking so many questions and opinions from me and one of the topic was about sincerity. Well, I think sincerity was the biggest and most favorable topic of mine that day. I remembered my mom once told me that; when you work for something doesnt matter its for 50cents, 5 bucks nor 50 bucks; put all out for it. Tho you get 50 bucks out of sighs, whines, complaints and insincere heart, it doesnt cost a single cent! At first, I didnt agree with mom as I think its just cash. Just a single note/ just a coin. But then after some time, I think mom’s right. Without sincerity, we wouldnt feel satisfied. We wont feel peace and tranquility, we only feel the temporary sweetness. For instance, during last Ramadhan I took orders for chocolate chip cookies and yeah it was fasting month and obviously there are some time where I was too exhausted to finish up baking for the entire week. But then I kinda forced myself to complete everything real fast without putting all effort sincerely. I was in a way forcing myself to make people put on smiles on their faces… Guess what happened for that whole-forcing-self-to-complete-things-with-insincerity? Things didnt turn out well, the taste, the shape, the color and et cetera and I had to do it all over again for the whole week’s order. However, I still do received cash for that week’s order but then it felt different. I wasnt satisfied, I was unhappy and kept thinking if I am in those buyers shoes-obviously I would complaint much. I know it might seemed like a small thing but the thought of it bothers me. And yeah I felt sinful. Very. So yeah, its true that in all and whatever we do, whenever we do-Sincerity is important. Thats all that counts!
