It must be there for years but I only noticed it yesterday on my way home.I saw a tll dead tree sticking out like a sore thump over the canopy of green living trees.I hope my simple and crude sketch shown on the right will illustrate the point.
My mind was wondering why the one that stood tall above the others is dead?Is it too old or a lightning may had struck it?Anyway, a dead tree is more useful than a few dead woods!Dead trees can be cut and turn into firewood, but a dead wood is not only useless but a burden.
A wise man told me that if I stand tall in the crowd,I may get the rainfall first but I also may get the lightning.Do we have the choice?Some time we do and some time we don't.May Allah shower us with His Rahmah in this Holy month of Ramadhan and protect us all the way and all the time,insyaAllah.
