As I was contemplating before going to bed, I was faced with the truth. As the New Year begins, my very first challenge is to start it right. Twenty twelve has begun. I must be focused, more committed, and never procrastinating.
Temptations slow me down and so reflection, meditation and prayers are necessary to remain on the straight path. And to avoid going nearer the temptations, I should always ask an important question to myself before doing anything: does this have anything to do with my duties? If not, no matter how this action may seem to be harmless, I should not do it. I must persevere. I must win over my strongest enemy—the weak part of myself.
All praises be to God, because He helps me and motivates me to do an important action today, which is to write this journal entry, signifying my committment for the betterment.
As I closed my eyes and take my sleep,
I am saying a simple prayer, Dear God,
Please, help me be strong and unrelenting when I wake up tomorrow.
I am faced with greater challenges,
and You know I am scared.
I do not even know how I am going to do it.
And so I leave all my trust in You.
I dedicate my all to You.
