What is happiness? Is it happiness to achieve what someone lacks? When will he come? When is a person happy? God has written a beautiful destiny for us, each of us, while we live in it, we will taste happiness or unhappiness. In fact, each of us is happy. You just need to understand. There is good in everything. I repeat this word many times in my life. Because I believe in these words with all my heart. I want to tell you the story that made me believe in these words once again.
One day I was working in the yard when someone called me. They invited us to the wedding. July 21 was the wedding day. I did my job. Since it was summer, the days got hot quickly, as my grandmother used to say, it would be better to cook eggs in a pan without fire.Around noon, my mother returned from work. They work in a hospital.
We had lunch together. He saw the invitation left for us in the morning. I did not know whose wedding I asked my mother. Aunt Rabiya’s daughter Gulnara’s wedding. She prayed, may God be pleased with her. Sister Gulnara in our neighborhood was 37 years old. They worked in a preschool. My mother remained silent for a while and began to tell what had happened to her.I love these habits of my mother.
They always share their feelings with me. They say that this is life, everything is possible. They will explain many things in a real way so that you can be an example.My sister Gulnara is the eldest child of the family. He has a sister and a brother. In fact, no one lives easily, but my sister Gulnara also grew up in difficulties. His father left him at the age of 11, and he started working at the age of 12.
At first he worked in a store. I don’t know how anyone can imagine, but when I was 12 years old, I went to school in the morning and returned home in the afternoon. My sister Gulnara worked at this age. Growing up early…responsibility…anxiety…Mom said it all. We talked about his performance, what about fatherlessness? An 11-year-old girl everyone remembers her when she goes to school, on the street, in the market, everywhere.
When they were studying, they got engaged to a young man at the age of 18. At that time, he had finished his second year and was working in the store where he had worked in his youth. Maybe then Gulnara dreamed of my sister, maybe I didn’t see love from my father, maybe this boy made me happy, I felt that happy days are still ahead, happy days are near.
Maybe his poor mother thought so too. Our tomorrow is known only to Allah. These are just things that came to mind. Now let’s hear the word from my mother. When my sister Gulnara was returning from the store one day, she had an accident. Her legs were broken. I don’t know what was going through her and her family’s imagination at that time.
They lived through these events that I was so moved by just listening to them. And the saddest thing is that this terrible event happened when they were about to marry a young man, and it ruined their sweet dreams.
That is, the groom’s side told them that there will be no wedding. My sister Gulnara somehow finished her studies. It was then that he started sewing hats again at home. According to my mother, my sisters often visited my sister Gulnara. Learned a trade.
Later, my sister Gavhar were married off to a good place.In the meantime, my sister Gulnara recovered and started working in the kindergarten. It worked for a long time. Together with his brother, they rebuilt their house. My mother said that at one time, the guy who was engaged to my sister Gulnara, stopped the wedding after the accident and then married someone else. I don’t know how long he lived with his wife. But that young man drank a lot of vodka, and one day when he got drunk, he fought with his wife and had a big fight, so he sent her home.
At that time, they had 10-month-old children. He kept the child without giving it to his wife. After leaving, the young man gave the milk in the refrigerator to a 10-month-old baby. This event was enough for everyone to hear. Murgakkina died before realizing what life is. When I heard it, my flesh began to tremble.
Is it possible for a person to be so merciless and stupid? It is a good thing that my sister Gulnora had an accident and that she did not marry the boy. Today, when they told me about the wedding, among all the events, they told my sister Gulnara, who turned 37 years old, to her wedding. God gives happiness to man. Sooner or later, big or small, he will definitely give it to everyone. But a person needs patience in many moments. It takes strength.
Among these events, my sister Gulnara’s brother also got married. And now, it’s July 21. Gulnara’s sister’s wedding. My mother told me about this incident and emphasized that we came to this life for a test, that happiness cannot be easily achieved and that we should seek wisdom from everything.
It is not easy for anyone in this world. Everyone is fighting their own battle. Everyone has their own mission, their own battlefield. Everyone thinks that the most difficult battlefield is his. In fact, the One who mobilizes to the battlefield is so great that everyone can carry out the task according to their own strength and endurance.
The truth is that sometimes it is difficult to fight at all. Even if a person has little strength, it will come to the point of collapse. But at those times, perhaps by making one of his the cause, or by some other reason, He gives power.
But until he gives the strength, the desire to start working again with enthusiasm, a person is as if dead and resurrected. These testing days are actually necessary.
