Power, Money, Fame

The three things that corrupt the heart the most and can take you away from God. The creator is the Most merciful and Most Gracious, He gives to whom ever he wishes and takes it away from whom ever he wishes. He is the most Just. I only pray that his mercy will overshadow his justice on the day of reckoning when all that exists will have to answer to him and give account of their life.

Power, money and fame can all be related to each other but not always. If you have fame it doesn't mean that you will have money as well or if you have money its not always true that you will have power. Before I go on keep in mind the power I am talking about is only within the human bounds, because we all know that no one except God holds true power. If anyone thinks they have power they are mistaken. We humans don't even decide our fate; how many times it happened to you that you planned to do something and it never happened? Or did you decide what family were you going to be born in? Or can you guarantee that you will be alive after you are done reading this?

That was a little thought on real power that we all need to realize. Now the power that some people think they have, its just an illusion. The money can't help them unless they spend it for the right cause. The fame is only a one minute thing. Then what's the big deal???

Why do people start acting weird when they get power, money or fame? I guess that I will have to wonder since I have none of them or do I? I was just elected to be the President of Ryerson Students' Union. People have been asking me what am I going to do with my new found power.

And that's why I am writing this blog, just to think about what is it that I have. I have been warned not to let it go to my head. But I don't have anything that can go to my head. The fame I already had, the power I already had, money I didn't. And what ever I had or have is given by Allah and can be taken away in the split of a second.

Now the question comes of it going to my head and how have I dealt with it in the past. I honestly don't know. I don't want to change or act differently but the question I ponder is that do I? Have I been acting all powerful and egoistic? I hope not.

I will have to stop here... because this is the third time this damn thing eat my post. i will continue once i am done cleaning my room
